#### Api CRUD testing

[](#api-crud-testing)

To test CRUD in your API you need to create test that extends `Shortcodes\Tests\Blueprints\ApiCrudTest` and provide model class in protected property

```
class ModelCrudTest extends ApiCrudTest
{
    protected $model = Model::class;
}

```

By default test will perform assertions to test

- i\_can\_make\_index\_request\_and\_get\_200\_status
- i\_can\_make\_show\_request\_and\_get\_200\_status
- i\_can\_make\_store\_request\_and\_get\_201\_status
- i\_can\_make\_update\_request\_and\_get\_200\_status
- i\_can\_make\_delete\_request\_and\_get\_204\_status

It is crucial to remember that provided `model` must have factory with valid generated data.

If `index` method requires some query string parameters you can define it in class method

```
class ModelCrudTest extends ApiCrudTest
{
    protected $model = Model::class;

    public function getQueryStringParams(){
        return [
            'length' => 10,
            'page' => 1
        ];
    }
}

```

#### Form Request testing

[](#form-request-testing)

To test Form Request in your API you need to create test that extends `Shortcodes\Tests\Blueprints\FormRequestTest` and provide request class in protected property

```
class IndexModelRequestTest extends FormRequestTest
{
    protected $model = IndexModelRequest::class;
}

```

`FormRequestTest` class allow to use method to validate request like in the example

```
class IndexModelRequestTest extends FormRequestTest
{
    protected $model = IndexModelRequest::class;

    public function testValidRequest(){
        $this->prepareRequest(['some_data'=>'value'])->assertValidRequest()
    }

    public function testInvalidRequest(){
        $this->prepareRequest(['some_data'=>'value'])->assertInvalidRequest()
    }

    public function testInvalidParameterInRequest(){
        $this->prepareRequest(['some_data'=>'value','invalid_parameter'=>'value'])
            ->assertInvalidRequest()
            ->assertInvalidParameter(['invalid_parameter'])
            ->assertInvalidParameter('invalid_parameter')   //or without array
            ->assertInvalidParameter('missing_request_required_parameter')
    }

    public function testValidParameterInInvalidRequestRequest(){
        $this->prepareRequest(['some_data'=>'value','invalid_parameter'=>'value'])
            ->assertInvalidRequest()
            ->assertInvalidParameter(['invalid_parameter'])
            ->assertValidParameter(['some_data'])
    }
}

```

There is also possibility to test request whit required injected model like with query parameters.

```
class IndexModelRequestTest extends FormRequestTest
{
    protected $model = UpdateModelRequest::class;

    public function testTitleDuplicationRequest(){
        $object = Model::first();
        $this->prepareRequest(['title'=>$object->title'], $object)->assertValidRequest()
    }
}

```

#### Api request testing

[](#api-request-testing)

To test Api Request in you need to create test that extends `Shortcodes\Tests\Blueprints\TestCase`. This is a simple wrapper on standard method that allows to write less code.

```
$response = $this->apiRequest('POST', url('named.route.name'), $data, $headers);

```

Method create request that act as user defined in class `user` property or create one from factory. And attach header for authorization `X-App-Token` which is taken from `env('AUTH_KEY')`,
