iron-test

A test helper crate for Iron.

This crate provides the request_get() and request_post() functions to easily test Iron handlers without firing up a local HTTP server.

Invoke the functions by passing an Iron chain (iron::Chain) and - in the case of a POST request - a &str containing the body payload.

    #[test]
    fn test_hello_get()
    {
        let iron = IronServer::new().create_iron();
        let response = request_get(&iron, "/hello").unwrap();
        assert!(response.status.unwrap().is_client_error());
    }
