Testing
How to write test case for Gin?
The net/http/httptest
package is preferable way for HTTP testing.
package main
import "github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
func setupRouter() *gin.Engine {
r := gin.Default()
r.GET("/ping", func(c *gin.Context) {
c.String(200, "pong")
})
return r
}
func main() {
r := setupRouter()
r.Run(":8080")
}
Test for code example above:
package main
import (
"net/http"
"net/http/httptest"
"testing"
"github.com/stretchr/testify/assert"
)
func TestPingRoute(t *testing.T) {
router := setupRouter()
w := httptest.NewRecorder()
req, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", "/ping", nil)
router.ServeHTTP(w, req)
assert.Equal(t, 200, w.Code)
assert.Equal(t, "pong", w.Body.String())
}
