Laravel autohttptests

![Software License][ico-license] ![Total Downloads][ico-downloads], _(*1)

No more writing tests by hand =D, _(*2)

Just execute the command to record your actions as http tests, _(*3)

``` bash php artisan autohttptest:create, _(*4)

The command will **intercept** your requests and translate the response as a test.


When finished, your test will be saved in tests/Feature/

**What does it test?**

- Request acting as same user
- Make request using the same verb (GET,PUT,POST) with same arguments
- Assert http response code
- Assert errors
- Assert redirection

## Example code

<?php, _(*5)

namespace Tests\Feature; use Tests\TestCase;, _(*6)

class SomethingTest extends TestCase { public function testAutoHttpTest() { $this ->actingAs(\App\Models\User::find(1)) ->post('home/something', [ 'name' => 'a', 'lastname' => 'a', 'city' => '', 'hobbies' => '', 'twitter_username' => 'a', ]) ->assertStatus(302) ->assertSessionHasErrors([ 'name', 'country_id', 'twitter_username', ]);, _(*7)

    $this
    ->actingAs(\App\Models\User::find(1))
    ->post('home/something', [
        'name'              => 'asdfa',
        'lastname'          => 'asdfa',
        'country_id' => '1',
        'city'              => '',
        'hobbies'        => '',
        'twitter_username'      => 'asdfa',
    ])
        ->assertStatus(302)
        ->assertRedirect('home/something');
}

}, _(*8)


**Note**

Here we capture an unsuccessful post, with errors.
Then, a **successful** post with redirection

## Install

Via Composer

``` bash
$ composer require eduardoarandah/autohttptests

If you are using laravel < 5.4 add to providers in config/app.php, _(*9)

EduardoArandaH\AutoHttpTests\AutoHttpTestsServiceProvider::class,

Usage

``` bash php artisan autohttptest:create, _(*10)


## How does it work?

when you run `php artisan autohttptest:create yourtest` it intercepts all requests and responses through a middleware. 

The request is then analyzed and transformed into a test in a file `storage/autohttptests.txt`

If you're curious, you can see the building of that file in real time with

tail -f storage/autohttptests.txt ```, _(*11)
