Ember CLI Proxy Fixtures

ember-cli-proxy-fixtures is built and maintained by DockYard, contact us for expert Ember.js consulting.

About

Capture Ember CLI proxy server responses for faster playback on the second run.

This is only intended for use with the test suite. The idea is in some cases you may be running your integration tests against a live server that is also running in its test environment. Making those requests, even though it is local, can add up for a large integration suite. Especially if you are blocking requests on database rollbacks and fixture inserts. If you are controlling these via API endpoints on the test server then you should see significant speed improvement from this module.

Install

npm install ember-cli-proxy-fixtures --save-dev
ember generate ember-cli-proxy-fixtures

Usage

All requests that jQuery.ajax will be captured through jquery-mockjax. This includes requests that go through ember-cli's proxy.

All proxy fixtures are saved to tests/fixtures/proxy. They will be namespaced under a directory matching the module name for the test and each file name will match the test itself. Contained within is the captured requests and the recorded responses for playback.

The first time you run the test suite it will record all information then write to the fixture files after the test suite is complete. Multiple requests to the same endpoint for a test will be recorded multiple times and played back via an offset. This module treats each response as unique.

If you have made changes to the server and expect a different response simply run:

rm -rf tests/fixtures/proxy

No need to restart the server. Restart the test suite and all responses will once again be recorded.
