07/19/2022, 4:52 PMIs this question about how to test your api which is guarded with our supertokens session?

nikolaiavich
07/19/2022, 4:53 PMNot from postman tho
nikolaiavich
07/19/2022, 4:54 PMIf I just follow convention of testing with nest js
nikolaiavich
07/19/2022, 4:54 PMTo run the spec

rp_st
07/19/2022, 4:54 PMRight. Which recipe are you using?

07/19/2022, 4:55 PMI followed the nest js guide on super tokens

07/19/2022, 4:55 PMIt’s working great

07/19/2022, 4:56 PMJust need to find a strategy to run my integration tests
r
rp_st
07/19/2022, 4:56 PMYou will need to setup the core for testing as well. You can run it without being connected to the db.
rp_st
07/19/2022, 4:56 PMAnd then send a login request, which will create a session, and then take the session cookies and add them to your request

07/19/2022, 5:05 PMI see so I can run individual resolvers as conventionally recommended ?
nikolaiavich
07/19/2022, 5:05 PMLike e2e I can run is what your saying
nikolaiavich
07/19/2022, 5:17 PMcouldn't i just mock the session interface in theory ? @rp_st ?
r
rp_st
07/19/2022, 5:22 PMYou could. You can override the session functions in session.init -> override.functions -> , and then override createNewSession, getSession etc etc.. to make it work
rp_st
07/19/2022, 5:24 PMYou can override the createNewSession to return an empty session like shown here: https://github.com/supertokens/supertokens-auth-react/blob/master/examples/with-no-session-on-sign-up-thirdpartyemailpassword/api-server/index.js#L88
rp_st
07/19/2022, 5:25 PMAnd in the getSession function, you could always just let it pass and return a session object similar to how you are doing above, but with the userId that you care about.

09/23/2022, 5:08 PM@rp_st Do you have any other resources on setting up testing? It'd be great if there was a step-by-step guide to testing, which outlined how to either run the core or mock the session functions. I've gotten ST to work in production, but that broke all of my integration tests in the process. It feels a bit overwhelming to have to figure out all the steps you outline

rp_st
09/23/2022, 5:16 PMYou can checkout how we do testing if you visit our backend SDK tests. Alternately, I’d be happy to walk you through it on a call. Unfortunately we don’t yet have docs for this yet.
