kandi X-RAY | ApiFramework Summary
API Framework aims to bring more flexibility and more options for building ASP.NET Core based OpenAPI backends. POCOs, Nuget Packages, Roslyn scripts, Delegates... With API Framework you have more options than just the controllers for building APIs in ASP.NET Core. API Framework provides a flexibile platform for runtime changes. APIs and endpoints can be added and updated when the system is running. You can add a new plugin through Nuget and configure it to provide an OpenAPI endpoint without ever having to restart the backend. The flexibile plugin system with a built-in support for plugins means that API Framework can be used as the secure OpenAPI gateway into other systems. With plugins you can generate OpenAPI endpoints from databases, file systems, Azure blob storage, and more. These endpoint provide the full OpenAPI specs, meaning if you have a table called Inventory in your database, your OpenAPI/Swagger specification will have the same Inventory available for use. API Framework is available for .NET Core 3.1. Some parts of it are available as .NET Standard 2.0 libraries. The sweet spot for using API Framework is an ASP.NET Core 3.1 based application. API Framework is part of the Weik.io platform. Weik.io provides open source integration, eventing and automation frameworks for .NET applications. API Framework is the "integration" part of the Weik.io platform.

QUESTION
I am completely new to writing unit test cases. This is my first one to write and I am confused. I am creating one swift package manager where I have written one method which will accept
URL
HTTPMethod
Parameter
and I am using Alamofire as package dependancy over there, which will call API from passed URL and then response will be catch.
Following is the code,
Framework.swift
file

Answered 2020-Dec-07 at 13:09It's really good you're getting to know unit tests (they'll make your life SOOOO much easier, trust me).
A few things I must mention about your snippet of code above, since you're calling Alamofire directly in your API core class (AF.request
) you won't be able to mock your network and hence not being able to perform a unit test per se. Sure, you could either:
- Use an HTTP proxy for your project to interact with and hence make your test reliable but that would introduce a whole lot of boilerplate and set up.
- Interact directly with a test/mock endpoint but this also comes with a caveat since you'd be relying on your network connection and having the need to introduce a bunch of waiting time in order to be able to sync your tests with the response times. Not recommendable.
You should check these resources out:
I need to improve the documentation on my library but the network layer is fully covered in tests + it's SPM (after all that was your original question).
I wish you all the best of lucks with automated testing in general, cheers!
PS: You should consider dismiss network layer dependencies for simple tasks. Libraries such as Alamofire and Moya are great choices if you need to do some really heavy lifting on the network side, otherwise they are unnecessary boilerplate. Check out these other great resources if you need a starting point:
- Networking In Swift With URLSession: nice intro to dip your toe in Swift's native
URLSession
waters - Network Requests and REST APIs in iOS with Swift (Protocol-Oriented Approach): more advance stuff if you already are familiar with protocols and generics.
