Exocomm-mock NPM

Mock implementation of ExoComm in JavaScript

a mock implementation of ExoComm-Dev for sending and receiving messages to your ExoServices in test

Installation

$ npm i --save-dev exocomm-mock

Usage

create an instance

ExoCommMock = require('exocomm-mock')
exocomm = new ExoCommMock

exocomm.registerService name: 'users', port: 4001

send a message to the service

exocomm.sendMessage service: 'users', name: 'users.create', payload: { name: 'Jean-Luc Picard' }

verifying messages sent out by the service under test

# ... make your service sent out a request here via exocomm.sendMessage...

# wait for the message to arrive
exocomm.waitUntilReceive =>

  # verify the received message
  expect(exocomm.receivedMessages()).to.eql [
    {
      name: 'users.created'
      payload:
        name: 'Jean-Luc Picard'
    }
  ]

if you want to verify more received messages later, you can reset the register of received messages so far
```
exocomm.reset()
```
finally, close your instance when you are done, so that you can create a fresh one for your next test
```
exocomm.close()
```
