So, i am a beginner in (like literally just started) unit and integration testing using mocha and chain for backend, i want to test a feature where we create new user, and the new user is created by signing-in with google. How to test the google authentication?
Earlier i thought of triggering /google/callback endpoint directly, but, turns-out, it is only supposed to get response from Google Authentication server.
So, how can i test google authentication using mocha and chai?
Please help!
Thanks in advance!

I am new to performance testing, doing it through Jmeter for my application.
I have recorded the script through blazemeter and running it in Jmeter, but it is failing at authentication step. My application uses OAuth0 to manage authentication.
How can I do performance testing on such application, will regex extractor help my case?
Can anyone please help me out? Thanks in advance.
This is not something you can record and replay, you need to create the signature, the exact steps will differ depending on your server implementation as there could be different algorithms in scope.
You need to obtain the documentation or contact application developers with regards to how to properly create the signature.
If you're lucky enough you can use OAuth Java client library for your OAuth provider from JSR223 Test Elements in order to sign the request.
Check out How to Run Performance Tests on OAuth Secured Apps with JMeter article for more details on how to bypass OAuth login challenge in JMeter tests.
I am in the process of writing a Voice app for Google Home (using DialogFlow) and Amazon Alexa (AWS).
Both voice apps back onto a custom .net WebAPI that serves the answers.
We have written a series of integration tests that test both the Natural Language Processing (Deriving the Intent) and also the backend service. DialogFlow provide API access to their NLP making these integration tests pretty easy to set up.
I am in the process of porting the app to Alexa via AWS and want to perform the same set of integration tests against the AWS NLP but cannot see if this is possible. Most of the testing for Alexa seems to be centered around testing Lambda functions (which we are not using). Does anybody know if it is possible to interact directly with an Alexa skill restfully?
Yes, it is possible, but a little cumbersome.
Alexa Skill Management API (SMAPI) provides RESTful HTTP interfaces for programmatically performing Alexa skill management tasks, such as creating a new skill or updating an interaction model.
You'll need to create a Amazon app to use it and send requests adding Authorization header with all requests.

How can I perform test queries using SOAP web service? Which tools or something I should to use? I'm newbie on this topic. I have url, password, login name and I would like to see result of queries in XML format.
As far as I know the most commonly used tool for testing web services is SOAP UI. This allows you to test just about all aspects of a soap API. From just a basic test request to complete Test Suites
SOAP UI can be found here.
We are having an requirement to automate REST web services testing with jasmine node. Im pretty new to web service testing and node js as well.
What exactly we need to test in web services?
Could you please also guide in order to automate REST services testing.
Thanks,

A REST Web Service uses http verbs (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE) to do various actions. So to test a web-service you need to write tests that send these requests with the appropriate data for your web-service and then examine the results. There are various test frameworks that make your life simpler.
Take a look at some simple tests I wrote for a sample REST Web-Service here.
The tests I wrote were for the purpose of running in Mocha but Jasmine should not be too different. Here is a great article on Jasmine and Mocha and the differences and similarities between them.
I'm writing a test suite for a django project which needs to login via django-social-auth (its facebook backend) in order to access the website.
The method I'm taking now is:
for each test:
create a test user using facebook API
use selenium to login
interact with the website once user is logged in
problem is: I need to write a few tests which use the regular django unittest (not selenium). Any idea how I can login using the regular django unittest?
It's not an easy task since the oauth code is very coupled in social-auth. So you really need a oauth service answering.
What I have done is to patch the function social_auth.utils.urlopen with a mock that returns previously recorded answers to trick django-social-auth into thinking it is talking with a real oauth provider.
It's a really hacky solution but allows me to test my custom social-auth pipeline in an isolated environment.
