How do I set the Request.FormFile when trying to test an endpoint?
Partial code:
func (a *EP) Endpoint(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
...
x, err := strconv.Atoi(r.FormValue("x"))
if err != nil {
a.ren.Text(w, http.StatusInternalServerError, err.Error())
return
}
f, fh, err := r.FormFile("y")
if err != nil {
a.ren.Text(w, http.StatusInternalServerError, err.Error())
return
}
defer f.Close()
...
}
How do I use the httptest lib to generate a post request that has value that I can get in FormFile?
You don't need to mock the complete FormFile struct as suggested by the other answer. The mime/multipart package implements a Writer type that lets you create a FormFile. From the docs
CreateFormFile is a convenience wrapper around CreatePart. It creates
a new form-data header with the provided field name and file name.
func (w *Writer) CreateFormFile(fieldname, filename string) (io.Writer, error)
Then, you can pass this io.Writer to httptest.NewRequest, which accepts a reader as an argument.
request := httptest.NewRequest("POST", "/", myReader)
To do this, you can either write the FormFile to an io.ReaderWriter buffer or use an io.Pipe. Here is a complete example that makes use of pipes:
func TestUploadImage(t *testing.T) {
// Set up a pipe to avoid buffering
pr, pw := io.Pipe()
// This writer is going to transform
// what we pass to it to multipart form data
// and write it to our io.Pipe
writer := multipart.NewWriter(pw)
go func() {
defer writer.Close()
// We create the form data field 'fileupload'
// which returns another writer to write the actual file
part, err := writer.CreateFormFile("fileupload", "someimg.png")
if err != nil {
t.Error(err)
}
// https://yourbasic.org/golang/create-image/
img := createImage()
// Encode() takes an io.Writer.
// We pass the multipart field
// 'fileupload' that we defined
// earlier which, in turn, writes
// to our io.Pipe
err = png.Encode(part, img)
if err != nil {
t.Error(err)
}
}()
// We read from the pipe which receives data
// from the multipart writer, which, in turn,
// receives data from png.Encode().
// We have 3 chained writers!
request := httptest.NewRequest("POST", "/", pr)
request.Header.Add("Content-Type", writer.FormDataContentType())
response := httptest.NewRecorder()
handler := UploadFileHandler()
handler.ServeHTTP(response, request)
t.Log("It should respond with an HTTP status code of 200")
if response.Code != 200 {
t.Errorf("Expected %s, received %d", 200, response.Code)
}
t.Log("It should create a file named 'someimg.png' in uploads folder")
if _, err := os.Stat("./uploads/someimg.png"); os.IsNotExist(err) {
t.Error("Expected file ./uploads/someimg.png' to exist")
}
}
This function makes use of the image package to generate a file dynamically taking advantage of the fact that you can pass an io.Writer to png.Encode. In the same vein, you could pass your multipart Writer to generate the bytes in a CSV format (NewWriter in package "encoding/csv"), generating a file on the fly, without needing to read anything from your filesystem.
If you have a look at the implementation of the FormFile function you'll see that it reads the exposed MultipartForm field.
https://golang.org/src/net/http/request.go?s=39022:39107#L1249
// FormFile returns the first file for the provided form key.
1258 // FormFile calls ParseMultipartForm and ParseForm if necessary.
1259 func (r *Request) FormFile(key string) (multipart.File, *multipart.FileHeader, error) {
1260 if r.MultipartForm == multipartByReader {
1261 return nil, nil, errors.New("http: multipart handled by MultipartReader")
1262 }
1263 if r.MultipartForm == nil {
1264 err := r.ParseMultipartForm(defaultMaxMemory)
1265 if err != nil {
1266 return nil, nil, err
1267 }
1268 }
1269 if r.MultipartForm != nil && r.MultipartForm.File != nil {
1270 if fhs := r.MultipartForm.File[key]; len(fhs) > 0 {
1271 f, err := fhs[0].Open()
1272 return f, fhs[0], err
1273 }
1274 }
1275 return nil, nil, ErrMissingFile
1276 }
In your test you should be able to create a test instance of multipart.Form and assign it to your request object - https://golang.org/pkg/mime/multipart/#Form
type Form struct {
Value map[string][]string
File map[string][]*FileHeader
}
Of course this will require that you use a real filepath which isn't great from a testing perspective. To get around this you could define an interface to read FormFile from a request object and pass a mock implementation into your EP struct.
Here is a good post with a few examples on how to do this: https://husobee.github.io/golang/testing/unit-test/2015/06/08/golang-unit-testing.html
I combined these and other answers into an Echo example without pipes or goroutines:
func Test_submitFile(t *testing.T) {
path := "testfile.txt"
body := new(bytes.Buffer)
writer := multipart.NewWriter(body)
part, err := writer.CreateFormFile("object", path)
assert.NoError(t, err)
sample, err := os.Open(path)
assert.NoError(t, err)
_, err = io.Copy(part, sample)
assert.NoError(t, err)
assert.NoError(t, writer.Close())
e := echo.New()
req := httptest.NewRequest(http.MethodPost, "/", body)
req.Header.Set(echo.HeaderContentType, writer.FormDataContentType())
rec := httptest.NewRecorder()
c := e.NewContext(req, rec)
c.SetPath("/submit")
if assert.NoError(t, submitFile(c)) {
assert.Equal(t, 200, rec.Code)
assert.Contains(t, rec.Body.String(), path)
fi, err := os.Stat(expectedPath)
if os.IsNotExist(err) {
t.Fatal("Upload file does not exist", expectedPath)
}
assert.Equal(t, wantSize, fi.Size())
}
}
By combining the previous answers, this worked for me:
filePath := "file.jpg"
fieldName := "file"
body := new(bytes.Buffer)
mw := multipart.NewWriter(body)
file, err := os.Open(filePath)
if err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)
}
w, err := mw.CreateFormFile(fieldName, filePath)
if err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)
}
if _, err := io.Copy(w, file); err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)
}
// close the writer before making the request
mw.Close()
req := httptest.NewRequest(http.MethodPost, "/upload", body)
req.Header.Add("Content-Type", mw.FormDataContentType())
res := httptest.NewRecorder()
// router is of type http.Handler
router.ServeHTTP(res, req)
I have the following function:
func CreateByID(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
formFile, _, err := r.FormFile("audio")
if err != nil {
return
}
defer formFile.Close()
defer r.MultipartForm.RemoveAll()
tmpFile, err := os.CreateTemp("/tmp")
if err != nil {
return
}
defer os.Remove(tmpFile.Name())
io.Copy(tmpFile, formFile)
err = validateFile(tmpFile.Name())
if err != nil {
return
}
}
func validateFile(path string) error {
fs, err := os.Stat(path)
if err != nil {
return
}
if fs.Size() < allowedSize {
return fmt.Errorf("file is too small")
}
}
which is basically creating a temp file from the HTTP request and validating it before further processing. This works fine except for the unit test. When I'm testing this function - I'm getting always filesize = 0.
Below you can see the Test case:
func TestCreateByID(t *testing.T) {
pr, pw := io.Pipe()
writer := multipart.NewWriter(pw)
go func() {
defer writer.Close()
_, err := writer.CreateFormFile("audio", "/tmp/audioFile")
if err != nil {
t.Error(err)
}
generateAudioSample("/tmp/audioFile")
}()
request := httptest.NewRequest(http.MethodGet, "/{id}")
request.Header.Add("Content-Type", writer.FormDataContentType())
response := httptest.NewRecorder()
# Calling The Actual Function
CreateByID(response, request)
handler := http.NewServeMux()
handler.ServeHTTP(response, request)
if response.Code != 200 {
t.Errorf("Expected %d, received %d", 200, response.Code)
return
}
}
generateAudioSample function is working fine because I can see the file on the filesystem and its size it bigger than 0 but for some reason this function io.Copy(tmpFile, formFile) doesn't seem to handle FormFile correctly, and is creating just an empty file on the filesystem and obviously fail the test. What else should I add to the test function in order to pass the test?
I have created a function that utilizes the grpc package in golang. I don't know if it is relevant but the purpose is the communication with a GoBGP router over grpc. An example is the following function which prints all the peers (neighbors) of the router:
func (gc *Grpc) Peers(conn *grpc.ClientConn) error {
defer conn.Close()
c := pb.NewGobgpApiClient(conn)
ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), time.Second*10)
defer cancel()
p := pb.ListPeerRequest{}
peer, err := c.ListPeer(ctx, &p)
if err != nil {
return err
}
for {
res, err := peer.Recv()
if err != nil {
return err
}
fmt.Println(res)
}
return nil
}
Now, I want to create unit tests for the function. To do so, I used google.golang.org/grpc/test/bufconn package, and initialized the following:
type server struct {
pb.UnimplementedGobgpApiServer
}
func (s *server) ListDefinedSet(in *pb.ListDefinedSetRequest, ls pb.GobgpApi_ListDefinedSetServer) error {
return nil
}
var lis *bufconn.Listener
const bufSize = 1024 * 1024
func init() {
lis = bufconn.Listen(bufSize)
s := grpc.NewServer()
pb.RegisterGobgpApiServer(s, &server{})
go func() {
if err := s.Serve(lis); err != nil {
fmt.Println("Server failed!")
}
}()
}
func bufDialer(context.Context, string) (net.Conn, error) {
return lis.Dial()
}
This way, I can run a unit-test creating a connection as follows:
ctx := context.Background()
conn, _ := grpc.DialContext(ctx, "bufnet", grpc.WithContextDialer(bufDialer), grpc.WithInsecure())
Peers(conn)
However, the problem is that the stream seems to be always empty and thus the peer.Recv()
always returns EOF. Is there any way to populate the stream with dummy data? If you have experience, is my methodology correct?
I've been trying to write unit tests for my http handler. The code segment is as below:
func (s *Server) handleCreateTicketOption(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
var t ticket.Ticket
body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(r.Body)
if err != nil {
http.Error(w, er.ErrInternal.Error(), http.StatusInternalServerError)
return
}
err = json.Unmarshal(body, &t)
if err != nil {
http.Error(w, er.ErrInvalidData.Error(), http.StatusBadRequest)
return
}
ticket, err := s.TicketService.CreateTicketOption(r.Context(), t)
if err != nil {
http.Error(w, er.ErrInternal.Error(), http.StatusInternalServerError)
return
}
res, err := json.Marshal(ticket)
if err != nil {
http.Error(w, er.ErrInternal.Error(), http.StatusInternalServerError)
return
}
log.Printf("%v tickets allocated with name %v\n", t.Allocation, t.Name)
s.sendResponse(w, res, http.StatusOK)
}
Actual logic that interacts with DB. This code segment is invoked by the handler as you can see in the code above. ticket, err := s.TicketService.CreateTicketOption(r.Context(), t)
func (t *TicketService) CreateTicketOption(ctx context.Context, ticket ticket.Ticket) (*ticket.Ticket, error) {
tx, err := t.db.dbPool.Begin(ctx)
if err != nil {
return nil, er.ErrInternal
}
defer tx.Rollback(ctx)
var id int
err = tx.QueryRow(ctx, `INSERT INTO ticket (name, description, allocation) VALUES ($1, $2, $3) RETURNING id`, ticket.Name, ticket.Description, ticket.Allocation).Scan(&id)
if err != nil {
return nil, er.ErrInternal
}
ticket.Id = id
return &ticket, tx.Commit(ctx)
}
And that is my unit test for the handler.
func TestCreateTicketOptionHandler(t *testing.T) {
caseExpected, _ := json.Marshal(&ticket.Ticket{Id: 1, Name: "baris", Description: "test-desc", Allocation: 10})
srv := NewServer()
// expected := [][]byte{
// _, _ = json.Marshal(&ticket.Ticket{Id: 1, Name: "baris", Description: "test-desc", Allocation: 20}),
// // json.Marshal(&ticket.Ticket{Id: 1, Name: "baris", Description: "test-desc", Allocation: 20})
// }
tt := []struct {
name string
entry *ticket.Ticket
want []byte
code int
}{
{
"valid",
&ticket.Ticket{Name: "baris", Description: "test-desc", Allocation: 10},
caseExpected,
http.StatusOK,
},
}
var buf bytes.Buffer
for _, tc := range tt {
t.Run(tc.name, func(t *testing.T) {
json.NewEncoder(&buf).Encode(tc.entry)
req, err := http.NewRequest(http.MethodPost, "/ticket_options", &buf)
log.Println("1")
if err != nil {
log.Println("2")
t.Fatalf("could not create request: %v", err)
}
log.Println("3")
rec := httptest.NewRecorder()
log.Println("4")
srv.handleCreateTicketOption(rec, req)
log.Println("5")
if rec.Code != tc.code {
t.Fatalf("got status %d, want %v", rec.Code, tc.code)
}
log.Println("6")
if reflect.DeepEqual(rec.Body.Bytes(), tc.want) {
log.Println("7")
t.Fatalf("NAME:%v, got %v, want %v", tc.name, rec.Body.Bytes(), tc.want)
}
})
}
}
I did research about mocking pgx about most of them were testing the logic part not through the handler. I want to write unit test for both handler and logic itself seperately. However, the unit test I've written for the handler panics as below
github.com/bariis/gowit-case-study/psql.(*TicketService).CreateTicketOption(0xc000061348, {0x1485058, 0xc0000260c0}, {0x0, {0xc000026dd0, 0x5}, {0xc000026dd5, 0x9}, 0xa})

How can I mock this type of code?
Create an interface which has the required DB functions
Your DB handler implements this interface. You use the handler in actual execution
Create a mock handler using testify/mock and use this in place of DB handler in test cases
From what I can read, you have the following structure:
type Server struct {
TicketService ticket.Service
}
type TicketService struct {
db *sql.Db // ..or similar
}
func (ts *TicketService) CreateTicketOption(...)
The trick to mock this is by ensuring ticket.Service is an interface instead of a struct.
Like this:
type TicketService interface {
CreateTicketOption(ctx context.Context, ticket ticket.Ticket) (*ticket.Ticket, error) {
}
By doing this, your Server expects a TicketService interface.
Then you could do this:
type postgresTicketService struct {
db *sql.Db
}
func (pst *postgresTicketService) CreateTicketOption(...)...
Which means that the postgresTicketService satisfies the requirements to be passed as a ticket.Service to the Server.
This also means that you can do this:
type mockTicketService struct {
}
func (mts *mockTicketService) CreateTicketOption(...)...
This way you decouple the Server from the actual implementation, and you could just init the Server with the mockTicketService when testing and postgresTicketService when deploying.
How do I set the Request.FormFile when trying to test an endpoint?
Partial code:
func (a *EP) Endpoint(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
...
x, err := strconv.Atoi(r.FormValue("x"))
if err != nil {
a.ren.Text(w, http.StatusInternalServerError, err.Error())
return
}
f, fh, err := r.FormFile("y")
if err != nil {
a.ren.Text(w, http.StatusInternalServerError, err.Error())
return
}
defer f.Close()
...
}
How do I use the httptest lib to generate a post request that has value that I can get in FormFile?
You don't need to mock the complete FormFile struct as suggested by the other answer. The mime/multipart package implements a Writer type that lets you create a FormFile. From the docs

To do this, you can either write the FormFile to an io.ReaderWriter buffer or use an io.Pipe. Here is a complete example that makes use of pipes:
func TestUploadImage(t *testing.T) {
// Set up a pipe to avoid buffering
pr, pw := io.Pipe()
// This writer is going to transform
// what we pass to it to multipart form data
// and write it to our io.Pipe
writer := multipart.NewWriter(pw)
go func() {
defer writer.Close()
// We create the form data field 'fileupload'
// which returns another writer to write the actual file
part, err := writer.CreateFormFile("fileupload", "someimg.png")
if err != nil {
t.Error(err)
}
// https://yourbasic.org/golang/create-image/
img := createImage()
// Encode() takes an io.Writer.
// We pass the multipart field
// 'fileupload' that we defined
// earlier which, in turn, writes
// to our io.Pipe
err = png.Encode(part, img)
if err != nil {
t.Error(err)
}
}()
// We read from the pipe which receives data
// from the multipart writer, which, in turn,
// receives data from png.Encode().
// We have 3 chained writers!
request := httptest.NewRequest("POST", "/", pr)
request.Header.Add("Content-Type", writer.FormDataContentType())
response := httptest.NewRecorder()
handler := UploadFileHandler()
handler.ServeHTTP(response, request)
t.Log("It should respond with an HTTP status code of 200")
if response.Code != 200 {
t.Errorf("Expected %s, received %d", 200, response.Code)
}
t.Log("It should create a file named 'someimg.png' in uploads folder")
if _, err := os.Stat("./uploads/someimg.png"); os.IsNotExist(err) {
t.Error("Expected file ./uploads/someimg.png' to exist")
}
}
This function makes use of the image package to generate a file dynamically taking advantage of the fact that you can pass an io.Writer to png.Encode. In the same vein, you could pass your multipart Writer to generate the bytes in a CSV format (NewWriter in package "encoding/csv"), generating a file on the fly, without needing to read anything from your filesystem.

1258 // FormFile calls ParseMultipartForm and ParseForm if necessary.
1259 func (r *Request) FormFile(key string) (multipart.File, *multipart.FileHeader, error) {
1260 if r.MultipartForm == multipartByReader {
1261 return nil, nil, errors.New("http: multipart handled by MultipartReader")
1262 }
1263 if r.MultipartForm == nil {
1264 err := r.ParseMultipartForm(defaultMaxMemory)
1265 if err != nil {
1266 return nil, nil, err
1267 }
1268 }
1269 if r.MultipartForm != nil && r.MultipartForm.File != nil {
1270 if fhs := r.MultipartForm.File[key]; len(fhs) > 0 {
1271 f, err := fhs[0].Open()
1272 return f, fhs[0], err
1273 }
1274 }
1275 return nil, nil, ErrMissingFile
1276 }
In your test you should be able to create a test instance of multipart.Form and assign it to your request object - https://golang.org/pkg/mime/multipart/#Form
type Form struct {
Value map[string][]string
File map[string][]*FileHeader
}
Of course this will require that you use a real filepath which isn't great from a testing perspective. To get around this you could define an interface to read FormFile from a request object and pass a mock implementation into your EP struct.
Here is a good post with a few examples on how to do this: https://husobee.github.io/golang/testing/unit-test/2015/06/08/golang-unit-testing.html
I combined these and other answers into an Echo example without pipes or goroutines:
func Test_submitFile(t *testing.T) {
path := "testfile.txt"
body := new(bytes.Buffer)
writer := multipart.NewWriter(body)
part, err := writer.CreateFormFile("object", path)
assert.NoError(t, err)
sample, err := os.Open(path)
assert.NoError(t, err)
_, err = io.Copy(part, sample)
assert.NoError(t, err)
assert.NoError(t, writer.Close())
e := echo.New()

req.Header.Set(echo.HeaderContentType, writer.FormDataContentType())

// close the writer before making the request
mw.Close()
req := httptest.NewRequest(http.MethodPost, "/upload", body)
req.Header.Add("Content-Type", mw.FormDataContentType())
res := httptest.NewRecorder()
// router is of type http.Handler
