CircleCI Gem Version Documentation

Assistance helpers and custom type for easy testing Gruf controllers with RSpec.

Installation

gem 'gruf-rspec'

Then add the following code to your spec_helper.rb:

require 'gruf/rspec'

Note that this gem requires at least Gruf 2.5.1+ and RSpec 3.8+.

Usage

  • Add a test for a Gruf controller in spec/rpc
  • Run the run_rpc method with two args: The gRPC method name, and the request object
  • Validate the response

Example

Let's assume you have a gruf controller named ThingController that is bound to the gRPC service Rpc::Things::Service. That has a method GetThing:

class ThingController < Gruf::Controllers::Base
  bind ::Rpc::Things::Service
  
  def get_thing
    Rpc::GetThingResponse.new(id: request.message.id)
  end
end

To test it, you'd create spec/rpc/thing_controller_spec.rb:

describe ThingController do
  describe '.get_thing' do
    let(:request_proto) { Rpc::GetThingRequest.new(id: rand(1..100)) }
    
    subject { run_rpc(:GetThing, request_proto) }
    
    it 'will return the thing' do
      expect(subject).to be_a(Rpc::GetThingResponse)
      expect(subject.id).to eq request_proto.id
    end
  end
end

Alternatively, you can pass a block:

it 'will return the thing' do
  run_rpc(:GetThing, request_proto) do |resp|
    expect(resp).to be_a(Rpc::GetThingResponse)
    expect(resp.id).to eq request_proto.id
  end
end

Accessing the Bound Service

Note that you can also access the bound gRPC service class:

it 'binds the service correctly' do
  expect(grpc_bound_service).to eq Rpc::Things::Service
end

Matching Errors

You can match against errors as well:

describe 'testing an error' do
  let(:request_proto) { Rpc::GetThingRequest.new(id: rand(1..100)) }
  
  subject { run_rpc(:GetThing, request_proto) }
  
  it 'should fail with the appropriate error' do
    expect { subject }.to raise_rpc_error(GRPC::InvalidArgument)
  end
end

Or further, even check your serialized error that is passed in metadata:

it 'should fail with the appropriate error code' do
  expect { subject }.to raise_rpc_error(GRPC::InvalidArgument).with_serialized { |err|
    expect(err).to be_a(MyCustomErrorClass)
    expect(err.error_code).to eq 'invalid_request'
  
    fe = err.field_errors.first
    expect(fe.field_name).to eq 'name'
    expect(fe.error_code).to eq 'invalid_name'
    expect(fe.error_message).to eq 
  }
end

Note that when using with_serialized, you must pass the block with { }, not using do and end.

RSpec Controller Matcher Configuration

By default, the type matcher for Gruf controllers matches in /spec/rpc. You can customize this by configuring it in the Gruf::Rspec confiugration block like so:

Gruf::Rspec.configure do |c|
  c.rpc_spec_path = '/spec/rpc_controllers'
end
