153 This module allows you to make requests to a Catalyst application either without
154 a server, by simulating the environment of an HTTP request using
155 L<HTTP::Request::AsCGI> or remotely if you define the CATALYST_SERVER
156 environment variable. This module also adds a few Catalyst-specific
157 testing methods as displayed in the method section.
159 The L<get|/"$content = get( ... )"> and L<request|/"$res = request( ... );">
160 functions take either a URI or an L<HTTP::Request> object.
162 =head1 INLINE TESTS WILL NO LONGER WORK
164 While it used to be possible to inline a whole testapp into a C<.t> file for a
165 distribution, this will no longer work.
167 The convention is to place your L<Catalyst> test apps into C<t/lib> in your
168 distribution. E.g.: C<t/lib/TestApp.pm>, C<t/lib/TestApp/Controller/Root.pm>,
169 etc.. Multiple test apps can be used in this way.
171 Then write your C<.t> files like so:
177 use Test::More tests => 6;
178 use Catalyst::Test 'TestApp';
182 =head2 $content = get( ... )
186 my $content = get('foo/bar?test=1');
188 Note that this method doesn't follow redirects, so to test for a
189 correctly redirecting page you'll need to use a combination of this
190 method and the L<request|/"$res = request( ... );"> method below:
192 my $res = request('/'); # redirects to /y
193 warn $res->header('location');
195 my $uri = URI->new($res->header('location'));
196 is ( $uri->path , '/y');
197 my $content = get($uri->path);
199 =head2 $res = request( ... );
201 Returns an L<HTTP::Response> object. Accepts an optional hashref for request
202 header configuration; currently only supports setting 'host' value.
204 my $res = request('foo/bar?test=1');
205 my $virtual_res = request('foo/bar?test=1', {host => 'virtualhost.com'});
209 =head2 ($res, $c) = ctx_request( ... );
211 Works exactly like L<request|/"$res = request( ... );">, except it also returns the Catalyst context object,
212 C<$c>. Note that this only works for local requests.
214 =head2 $res = Catalyst::Test::local_request( $AppClass, $url );
216 Simulate a request using L<HTTP::Request::AsCGI>.
223 require HTTP::Request::AsCGI;
225 my $request = Catalyst::Utils::request( shift(@_) );
226 _customize_request($request, @_);
227 my $cgi = HTTP::Request::AsCGI->new( $request, %ENV )->setup;
229 $class->handle_request( env => \%ENV );
231 my $response = $cgi->restore->response;
232 $response->request( $request );
238 =head2 $res = Catalyst::Test::remote_request( $url );
240 Do an actual remote request using LWP.
246 require LWP::UserAgent;
248 my $request = Catalyst::Utils::request( shift(@_) );
249 my $server = URI->new( $ENV{CATALYST_SERVER} );
251 _customize_request($request, @_);
253 if ( $server->path =~ m|^(.+)?/$| ) {
255 $server->path("$path") if $path; # need to be quoted
258 # the request path needs to be sanitised if $server is using a
259 # non-root path due to potential overlap between request path and
262 # If request path is '/', we have to add a trailing slash to the
264 my $add_trailing = $request->uri->path eq '/';
266 my @sp = split '/', $server->path;
267 my @rp = split '/', $request->uri->path;
268 shift @sp;shift @rp; # leading /
270 foreach my $sp (@sp) {
271 $sp eq $rp[0] ? shift @rp : last
274 $request->uri->path(join '/', @rp);
276 if ( $add_trailing ) {
277 $request->uri->path( $request->uri->path . '/' );
281 $request->uri->scheme( $server->scheme );
282 $request->uri->host( $server->host );
283 $request->uri->port( $server->port );
284 $request->uri->path( $server->path . $request->uri->path );
288 $agent = LWP::UserAgent->new(

315 Fetches the given URL and checks that the request was successful.
317 =head2 action_redirect
319 Fetches the given URL and checks that the request was a redirect.
321 =head2 action_notfound
323 Fetches the given URL and checks that the request was not found.
325 =head2 content_like( $url, $regexp [, $test_name] )
327 Fetches the given URL and returns whether the content matches the regexp.
329 =head2 contenttype_is
331 Check for given MIME type.
