Ember Data Factory Guy
Feel the thrill and enjoyment of testing when using Factories instead of Fixtures. Factories simplify the process of testing, making you more efficient and your tests more readable.
NEW starting with v3.8
- jquery is no longer required and fetch adapter is used with ember-data
- you can still use jquery if you want to
- if you are addon author using factory guy set up your application adapter like this
NEW starting with v3.2.1
- You can setup data AND links for your async relationship Check it out
NEW You can use factory guy in ember-twiddle
- Using Scenarios
NEW If using new style of ember-qunit acceptance tests with setupApplicationTest
check out demo here: user-view-test.js:
NEW starting with v2.13.27
- get attributes for factory defined models with
attributesFor
NEW starting with v2.13.24
- manualSetup streamlined to
manualSetup(this)
NEW and Improved starting with v2.13.22
- Traits can be functions Check it out
Older but still fun things
- Support for ember-data-model-fragment usage is baked in since v2.5.0
- Support for ember-django-adapter usage is fried in since v2.6.1
- Support for adding meta data to payloads for use with ember-infinity ie. => pagination
- Support for adding headers to payloads
Why is FactoryGuy so awesome
- Since you're using ember data, you don't need to create any ORM like things
- You don't need to add any files to recreate the relationships in your models
- Any custom methods like: serialize / serializeAttribute / keyForAttribute etc... in a serializer will be used automatically
- If you set up custom methods like: buildURL / urlForFindRecord in an adapter, they will be used automatically
- You have no config file with tons of spew, because you declare all the mocks and make everything declaratively in the test
- You can push models and their complex relationships directly to the store

How it works
- You create factories for your models.
- put them in the
tests/factories
directory
- put them in the
- Use these factories to create models for your tests
- you can make records that persist in the store
- or you can build a json payload used for mocking an ajax call's payload

Setup
In the following examples, assume the models look like this:
// standard models
class User extends Model {
@attr('string') name
@attr('string') style
@hasMany('project') projects
@hasMany('hat', {polymorphic: true}) hats
}
class Project extends Model {
@attr('string') title
@belongsTo('user') user
}
// polymorphic models
class Hat extends Model {
@attr('string') type
@belongsTo('user') user
}
class BigHat extends Hat {};
class SmallHat extends Hat {};
Defining Factories
- A factory has a name and a set of attributes.
- The name should match the model type name. So, for the model
User
, the factory name would beuser
- Create factory files in the
tests/factories
directory. - Can use generators to create the outline of a factory file:
ember generate factory user
This will create a factory in a file nameduser.js
in thetests/factories
directory.
Standard models
Sample full blown factory:
user.js
Brief sample of a factory definition:
// file tests/factories/user.js
import FactoryGuy from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
FactoryGuy.define('user', {
// Put default 'user' attributes in the default section
default: {
style: 'normal',
name: 'Dude'
},
// Create a named 'user' with custom attributes
admin: {
style: 'super',
name: 'Admin'
}
});
- If you are using an attribute named
type
and this is not a polymorphic model, use the optionpolymorphic: false
in your definition
// file: tests/factories/cat.js
FactoryGuy.define('cat', {
polymorphic: false, // manually flag this model as NOT polymorphic
default: {
// usually, an attribute named 'type' is for polymorphic models, but the defenition
// is set as NOT polymorphic, which allows this type to work as attibute
type: 'Cute',
name: (f)=> `Cat ${f.id}`
}
});
Polymorphic models
- Define each polymorphic model in its own typed definition
- The attribute named
type
is used to hold the model name - May want to extend the parent factory here (see extending other definitions)
// file tests/factories/small-hat.js
import FactoryGuy from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
FactoryGuy.define('small-hat', {
default: {
type: 'SmallHat'
}
})
// file tests/factories/big-hat.js
import FactoryGuy from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
FactoryGuy.define('big-hat', {
default: {
type: 'BigHat'
}
})
In other words, don't do this:
// file tests/factories/hat.js
import FactoryGuy from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
FactoryGuy.define('hat', {
default: {},
small-hat: {
type: 'SmallHat'
},
big-hat: {
type: 'BigHat'
}
})
Sequences
- For generating unique attribute values.
- Can be defined:
- In the model definition's
sequences
hash - Inline on the attribute
- In the model definition's
- Values are generated by calling
FactoryGuy.generate
Declaring sequences in sequences hash
FactoryGuy.define('user', {
sequences: {
userName: (num)=> `User${num}`
},
default: {
// use the 'userName' sequence for this attribute
name: FactoryGuy.generate('userName')
}
});
let first = FactoryGuy.build('user');
first.get('name') // => 'User1'
let second = FactoryGuy.make('user');
second.get('name') // => 'User2'
Declaring an inline sequence on attribute
FactoryGuy.define('project', {
special_project: {
title: FactoryGuy.generate((num)=> `Project #${num}`)
},
});
let json = FactoryGuy.build('special_project');
json.get('title') // => 'Project #1'
let project = FactoryGuy.make('special_project');
project.get('title') // => 'Project #2'
Inline Functions
- Declare a function for an attribute
- The fixture is passed as parameter so you can reference all other attributes, even id
FactoryGuy.define('user', {
default: {
// Don't need the userName sequence, since the id is almost
// always a sequential number, and you can use that.
// f is the fixture being built as the moment for this factory
// definition, which has the id available
name: (f)=> `User${f.id}`
},
traits: {
boring: {
style: (f)=> `${f.id} boring`
},
funny: {
style: (f)=> `funny ${f.name}`
}
}
});
let json = FactoryGuy.build('user', 'funny');
json.get('name') // => 'User1'
json.get('style') // => 'funny User1'
let user = FactoryGuy.make('user', 'boring');
user.get('id') // => 2
user.get('style') // => '2 boring'
Note the style attribute was built from a function which depends on the name and the name is a generated attribute from a sequence function
Traits
- Used with
attributesFor , build/buildList , make/makeList
- For grouping attributes together
- Can use one or more traits
- Each trait overrides any values defined in traits before it in the argument list
- traits can be functions ( this is mega powerful )
FactoryGuy.define('user', {
traits: {
big: { name: 'Big Guy' },
friendly: { style: 'Friendly' },
bfg: { name: 'Big Friendly Giant', style: 'Friendly' }
}
});
let user = FactoryGuy.make('user', 'big', 'friendly');
user.get('name') // => 'Big Guy'
user.get('style') // => 'Friendly'
let giant = FactoryGuy.make('user', 'big', 'bfg');
user.get('name') // => 'Big Friendly Giant' - name defined in the 'bfg' trait overrides the name defined in the 'big' trait
user.get('style') // => 'Friendly'
You can still pass in a hash of options when using traits. This hash of attributes will override any trait attributes or default attributes
let user = FactoryGuy.make('user', 'big', 'friendly', {name: 'Dave'});
user.get('name') // => 'Dave'
user.get('style') // => 'Friendly'
Using traits as functions
import FactoryGuy from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
FactoryGuy.define("project", {
default: {
title: (f) => `Project ${f.id}`
},
traits: {
// this trait is a function
// note that the fixure is passed in that will have
// default attributes like id at a minimum and in this
// case also a title ( `Project 1` ) which is default
medium: (f) => {
f.title = `Medium Project ${f.id}`
},
goofy: (f) => {
f.title = `Goofy ${f.title}`
}
withUser: (f) => {
// NOTE: you're not using FactoryGuy.belongsTo as you would
// normally in a fixture definition
f.user = FactoryGuy.make('user')
}
}
});
So, when you make / build a project like:
let project = make('project', 'medium');
project.get('title'); //=> 'Medium Project 1'
let project2 = build('project', 'goofy');
project2.get('title'); //=> 'Goofy Project 2'
let project3 = build('project', 'withUser');
project3.get('user.name'); //=> 'User 1'
Your trait function assigns the title as you described in the function
Associations
Can setup belongsTo or hasMany associations in factory definitions
- As inline attribute definition
- With traits
- as links for async relationships
Can setup belongsTo or hasMany associations manually
- With
FactoryGuy.build
/FactoryGuy.buildList
andFactoryGuy.make
/FactoryGuy.makeList
- Can compose relationships to any level
- When setting up manually do not mix
build
andmake
- you eitherbuild
JSON in every levels of associations ormake
objects.build
is taking serializer into account for every model which means that output frombuild
might be different than expected input defined in factory inmake
.
- With
Special tips for links
Setup belongsTo associations in Factory Definitions
- using traits are the best practice
FactoryGuy.define('project', {
traits: {
withUser: { user: {} },
withAdmin: { user: FactoryGuy.belongsTo('user', 'admin') },
withManagerLink(f) { // f is the fixture being created
f.links = {manager: `/projects/${f.id}/manager`}
}
}
});
let user = make('project', 'withUser');
project.get('user').toJSON({includeId: true}) // => {id:1, name: 'Dude', style: 'normal'}
user = make('user', 'withManagerLink');
user.belongsTo('manager').link(); // => "/projects/1/manager"
Setup belongsTo associations manually
See FactoryGuy.build
/FactoryGuy.buildList
for more ideas
let user = make('user');
let project = make('project', {user});
project.get('user').toJSON({includeId: true}) // => {id:1, name: 'Dude', style: 'normal'}
Note that though you are setting the 'user' belongsTo association on a project, the reverse user hasMany 'projects' association is being setup for you on the user ( for both manual and factory defined belongsTo associations ) as well
user.get('projects.length') // => 1
Setup hasMany associations in the Factory Definition
- using traits are the best practice
- Do not create
hasMany
records via thedefault
section of the factory definition. Prefer traits to set up such associations. Creating them via thedefault
section is known to cause some undefined behavior when using themakeNew
API.
FactoryGuy.define('user', {
traits: {
withProjects: {
projects: FactoryGuy.hasMany('project', 2)
},
withPropertiesLink(f) { // f is the fixture being created
f.links = {properties: `/users/${f.id}/properties`}
}
}
});
let user = make('user', 'withProjects');
user.get('projects.length') // => 2
user = make('user', 'withPropertiesLink');
user.hasMany('properties').link(); // => "/users/1/properties"
You could also setup a custom named user definition:
FactoryGuy.define('user', {
userWithProjects: { projects: FactoryGuy.hasMany('project', 2) }
});
let user = make('userWithProjects');
user.get('projects.length') // => 2
Setup hasMany associations manually
See FactoryGuy.build
/FactoryGuy.makeList
for more ideas
let project1 = make('project');
let project2 = make('project');
let user = make('user', {projects: [project1, project2]});
user.get('projects.length') // => 2
// or
let projects = makeList('project', 2);
let user = make('user', {projects});
user.get('projects.length') // => 2
Note that though you are setting the 'projects' hasMany association on a user, the reverse 'user' belongsTo association is being setup for you on the project ( for both manual and factory defined hasMany associations ) as well
projects.get('firstObject.user') // => user
Special tips for links
- The links syntax changed as of ( v3.2.1 )
- What you see below is the new syntax
- You can setup data AND links for your async relationship
- Need special care with multiple traits setting links
FactoryGuy.define('user', {
traits: {
withCompanyLink(f): {
// since you can assign many different links with different traits,
// you should Object.assign so that you add to the links hash rather
// than set it directly ( assuming you want to use this feature )
f.links = Object.assign({company: `/users/${f.id}/company`}, f.links);
},
withPropertiesLink(f) {
f.links = Object.assign({properties: `/users/${f.id}/properties`}, f.links);
}
}
});
// setting links with traits
let company = make('company')
let user = make('user', 'withCompanyLink', 'withPropertiesLink', {company});
user.hasMany('properties').link(); // => "/users/1/properties"
user.belongsTo('company').link(); // => "/users/1/company"
// the company async relationship has a company AND link to fetch it again
// when you reload that relationship
user.get('company.content') // => company
user.belongsTo('company').reload() // would use that link "/users/1/company" to reload company
// you can also set traits with your build/buildList/make/makeList options
user = make('user', {links: {properties: '/users/1/properties'}});
Extending Other Definitions
- Extending another definition will inherit these sections:
- sequences
- traits
- default attributes
- Inheritance is fine grained, so in each section, any attribute that is local will take precedence over an inherited one. So you can override some attributes in the default section ( for example ), and inherit the rest
There is a sample Factory using inheritance here: big-group.js
Transient Attributes
- Use transient attributes to build a fixture
- Pass in any attribute you like to build a fixture
- Usually helps you to build some other attribute
- These attributes will be removed when fixture is done building
- Can be used in
make
/makeList
/build
/buildList
Let's say you have a model and a factory like this:
// app/models/dog.js
import Model from 'ember-data/model';
import attr from 'ember-data/attr';
export default class Dog extends Model{
@attr('string') dogNumber
@attr('string') sound
}
// tests/factories/dog.js
import FactoryGuy from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
const defaultVolume = "Normal";
FactoryGuy.define('dog', {
default: {
dogNumber: (f)=> `Dog${f.id}`,
sound: (f) => `${f.volume || defaultVolume} Woof`
},
});
Then to build the fixture:
let dog2 = build('dog', { volume: 'Soft' });
dog2.get('sound'); //=> `Soft Woof`
Callbacks
afterMake
- Uses transient attributes
- Unfortunately the model will fire 'onload' event before this
afterMake
is called.- So all data will not be setup by then if you rely on
afterMake
to finish by the timeonload
is called. - In this case, just use transient attributes without the
afterMake
- So all data will not be setup by then if you rely on
Assuming the factory-guy model definition defines afterMake
function:
FactoryGuy.define('property', {
default: {
name: 'Silly property'
},
// optionally set transient attributes, that will be passed in to afterMake function
transient: {
for_sale: true
},
// The attributes passed to after make will include any optional attributes you
// passed in to make, and the transient attributes defined in this definition
afterMake: function(model, attributes) {
if (attributes.for_sale) {
model.set('name', model.get('name') + '(FOR SALE)');
}
}
}
You would use this to make models like:
run(function () {
let property = FactoryGuy.make('property');
property.get('name'); // => 'Silly property(FOR SALE)')
let property = FactoryGuy.make('property', {for_sale: false});
property.get('name'); // => 'Silly property')
});
Remember to import the run
function with import { run } from "@ember/runloop"
;
Using Factories
FactoryGuy.attributesFor
- returns attributes ( for now no relationship info )
FactoryGuy.make
- push model instances into store
FactoryGuy.makeNew
- Create a new model instance but doesn't load it to the store
FactoryGuy.makeList
- Loads zero to many model instances into the store
FactoryGuy.build
- Builds json in accordance with the adapter's specifications
- RESTAdapter (assume this adapter being used in most of the following examples)
- ActiveModelAdapter
- JSONAPIAdapter
- DrfAdapter (Ember Django Adapter)
- Builds json in accordance with the adapter's specifications
FactoryGuy.buildList
- Builds json with a list of zero or more items in accordance with the adapter's specifications
- Can override default attributes by passing in an object of options
- Can add attributes or relationships with traits
- Can compose relationships
- By passing in other objects you've made with
build
/buildList
ormake
/makeList
- By passing in other objects you've made with
- Can setup links for async relationships with
build
/buildList
ormake
/makeList
FactoryGuy.attributesFor
- nice way to get attibutes for a factory without making a model or payload
- same arguments as make/build
- no id is returned
- no relationship info returned ( yet )
import { attributesFor } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
// make a user with certain traits and options
attributesFor('user', 'silly', {name: 'Fred'}); // => { name: 'Fred', style: 'silly'}
FactoryGuy.make
- Loads a model instance into the store
- makes a fragment hash ( if it is a model fragment )
- can compose relationships with other
FactoryGuy.make
/FactoryGuy.makeList
- can add relationship links to payload
import { make } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
// make a user with the default attributes in user factory
let user = make('user');
user.toJSON({includeId: true}); // => {id: 1, name: 'User1', style: 'normal'}
// make a user with the default attributes plus those defined as 'admin' in the user factory
let user = make('admin');
user.toJSON({includeId: true}); // => {id: 2, name: 'Admin', style: 'super'}
// make a user with the default attributes plus these extra attributes provided in the optional hash
let user = make('user', {name: 'Fred'});
user.toJSON({includeId: true}); // => {id: 3, name: 'Fred', style: 'normal'}
// make an 'admin' user with these extra attributes
let user = make('admin', {name: 'Fred'});
user.toJSON({includeId: true}); // => {id: 4, name: 'Fred', style: 'super'}
// make a user with a trait ('silly') plus these extra attributes provided in the optional hash
let user = make('user', 'silly', {name: 'Fred'});
user.toJSON({includeId: true}); // => {id: 5, name: 'Fred', style: 'silly'}
// make a user with a hats relationship ( hasMany ) composed of pre-made hats
let hat1 = make('big-hat');
let hat2 = make('big-hat');
let user = make('user', {hats: [hat1, hat2]});
user.toJSON({includeId: true})
// => {id: 6, name: 'User2', style: 'normal', hats: [{id:1, type:"big_hat"},{id:1, type:"big_hat"}]}
// note that hats are polymorphic. if they weren't, the hats array would be a list of ids: [1,2]
// make a user with a company relationship ( belongsTo ) composed of a pre-made company
let company = make('company');
let user = make('user', {company: company});
user.toJSON({includeId: true}) // => {id: 7, name: 'User3', style: 'normal', company: 1}
// make user with links to async hasMany properties
let user = make('user', {properties: {links: '/users/1/properties'}});
// make user with links to async belongsTo company
let user = make('user', {company: {links: '/users/1/company'}});
// for model fragments you get an object
let object = make('name'); // => {firstName: 'Boba', lastName: 'Fett'}
FactoryGuy.makeNew
- Same api as
FactoryGuy.make
- except that the model will be a newly created record with no id
FactoryGuy.makeList
- check out (user factory): to see 'bob' user and 'with_car' trait
Usage:
import { make, makeList } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
// Let's say bob is a named type in the user factory
makeList('user', 'bob') // makes 0 bob's
makeList('user', 'bob', 2) // makes 2 bob's
makeList('user', 'bob', 2, 'with_car', {name: "Dude"})
// makes 2 bob users with the 'with_car' trait and name of "Dude"
// In other words, applies the traits and options to every bob made
makeList('user', 'bob', 'with_car', ['with_car', {name: "Dude"}])
// makes 2 users with bob attributes. The first also has the 'with_car' trait and the
// second has the 'with_car' trait and name of "Dude", so you get 2 different users
FactoryGuy.build
- for building json that you can pass as json payload in acceptance tests
- takes the same arguments as
FactoryGuy.make
- can compose relationships with other
FactoryGuy.build
/FactoryGuy.buildList
payloads - can add relationship links to payload
- takes serializer for model into consideration
- to inspect the json use the
get
method - use the
add
method- to include extra sideloaded data to the payload
- to include meta data
- REMEMBER, all relationships will be automatically sideloaded,
so you don't need to add them with the
add()
method
Usage:
import { build, buildList } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
// build a basic user with the default attributes from the user factory
let json = build('user');
json.get() // => {id: 1, name: 'User1', style: 'normal'}
// build a user with the default attributes plus those defined as 'admin' in the user factory
let json = build('admin');
json.get() // => {id: 2, name: 'Admin', style: 'super'}
// build a user with the default attributes with extra attributes
let json = build('user', {name: 'Fred'});
json.get() // => {id: 3, name: 'Fred', style: 'normal'}
// build the admin defined user with extra attributes
let json = build('admin', {name: 'Fred'});
json.get() // => {id: 4, name: 'Fred', style: 'super'}
// build default user with traits and with extra attributes
let json = build('user', 'silly', {name: 'Fred'});
json.get() // => {id: 5, name: 'Fred', style: 'silly'}
// build user with hats relationship ( hasMany ) composed of a few pre 'built' hats
let hat1 = build('big-hat');
let hat2 = build('big-hat');
let json = build('user', {hats: [hat1, hat2]});
// note that hats are polymorphic. if they weren't, the hats array would be a list of ids: [1,2]
json.get() // => {id: 6, name: 'User2', style: 'normal', hats: [{id:1, type:"big_hat"},{id:1, type:"big_hat"}]}
// build user with company relationship ( belongsTo ) composed of a pre 'built' company
let company = build('company');
let json = build('user', {company});
json.get() // => {id: 7, name: 'User3', style: 'normal', company: 1}
// build and compose relationships to unlimited degree
let company1 = build('company', {name: 'A Corp'});
let company2 = build('company', {name: 'B Corp'});
let owners = buildList('user', { company:company1 }, { company:company2 });
let buildJson = build('property', { owners });
// build user with links to async hasMany properties
let user = build('user', {properties: {links: '/users/1/properties'}});
// build user with links to async belongsTo company
let user = build('user', {company: {links: '/users/1/company'}});
- Example of what json payload from build looks like
- Although the RESTAdapter is being used, this works the same with ActiveModel or JSONAPI adapters
let json = build('user', 'with_company', 'with_hats');
json // =>
{
user: {
id: 1,
name: 'User1',
company: 1,
hats: [
{type: 'big_hat', id:1},
{type: 'big_hat', id:2}
]
},
companies: [
{id: 1, name: 'Silly corp'}
],
'big-hats': [
{id: 1, type: "BigHat" },
{id: 2, type: "BigHat" }
]
}
FactoryGuy.buildList
- for building json that you can pass as json payload in acceptance tests
- takes the same arguments as
FactoryGuy.makeList
- can compose relationships with other
build
/buildList
payloads - takes serializer for model into consideration
- to inspect the json use the
get()
method- can use
get(index)
to get an individual item from the list
- can use
- use the
add
method- to add extra sideloaded data to the payload =>
.add(payload)
- to add meta data =>
.add({meta})
- to add extra sideloaded data to the payload =>
Usage:
import { build, buildList } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
let bobs = buildList('bob', 2); // builds 2 Bob's
let bobs = buildList('bob', 2, {name: 'Rob'}); // builds 2 Bob's with name of 'Rob'
// builds 2 users, one with name 'Bob' , the next with name 'Rob'
let users = buildList('user', { name:'Bob' }, { name:'Rob' });
// builds 2 users, one with 'boblike' and the next with name 'adminlike' features
// NOTE: you don't say how many to make, because each trait is making new user
let users = buildList('user', 'boblike', 'adminlike');
// builds 2 users:
// one 'boblike' with stoner style
// and the next 'adminlike' with square style
// NOTE: how you are grouping traits and attributes for each one by wrapping them in array
let users = buildList('user', ['boblike', { style: 'stoner' }], ['adminlike', {style: 'square'}]);
Using add()
method
- when you need to add more json to a payload
- will be sideloaded
- only JSONAPI, and REST based serializers can do sideloading
- so DRFSerializer and JSONSerializer users can not use this feature
- you dont need to use json key as in:
build('user').add({json: batMan})
- you can just add the payload directly as:
build('user').add(batMan)
- will be sideloaded
Usage:
let batMan = build('bat_man');
let userPayload = build('user').add(batMan);
userPayload = {
user: {
id: 1,
name: 'User1',
style: "normal"
},
'super-heros': [
{
id: 1,
name: "BatMan",
type: "SuperHero"
}
]
};
- when you want to add meta data to payload
- only JSONAPI, and REST based and serializers and DRFSerializer can handle meta data
- so JSONSerializer users can not use this feature ( though this might be a bug on my part )
Usage:
let json1 = buildList('profile', 2).add({ meta: { previous: '/profiles?page=1', next: '/profiles?page=3' } });
let json2 = buildList('profile', 2).add({ meta: { previous: '/profiles?page=2', next: '/profiles?page=4' } });
mockQuery('profile', {page: 2}).returns({ json: json1 });
mockQuery('profile', {page: 3}).returns({ json: json2 });
store.query('profile', {page: 2}).then((records)=> // first 2 from json1
store.query('profile', {page: 3}).then((records)=> // second 2 from json2
Using get()
method
- for inspecting contents of json payload
get()
returns all attributes of top level modelget(attribute)
gives you an attribute from the top level modelget(index)
gives you the info for a hasMany relationship at that indexget(relationships)
gives you just the id or type ( if polymorphic )- better to compose the build relationships by hand if you need more info
- check out user factory: to see 'boblike' and 'adminlike' user traits
let json = build('user');
json.get() //=> {id: 1, name: 'User1', style: 'normal'}
json.get('id') // => 1
let json = buildList('user', 2);
json.get(0) //=> {id: 1, name: 'User1', style: 'normal'}
json.get(1) //=> {id: 2, name: 'User2', style: 'normal'}
let json = buildList('user', 'boblike', 'adminlike');
json.get(0) //=> {id: 1, name: 'Bob', style: 'boblike'}
json.get(1) //=> {id: 2, name: 'Admin', style: 'super'}
- building relationships inline
let json = build('user', 'with_company', 'with_hats');
json.get() //=> {id: 1, name: 'User1', style: 'normal'}
// to get hats (hasMany relationship) info
json.get('hats') //=> [{id: 1, type: "big_hat"},{id: 1, type: "big_hat"}]
// to get company ( belongsTo relationship ) info
json.get('company') //=> {id: 1, type: "company"}
- by composing the relationships you can get the full attributes of those associations
let company = build('company');
let hats = buildList('big-hats');
let user = build('user', {company , hats});
user.get() //=> {id: 1, name: 'User1', style: 'normal'}
// to get hats info from hats json
hats.get(0) //=> {id: 1, type: "BigHat", plus .. any other attributes}
hats.get(1) //=> {id: 2, type: "BigHat", plus .. any other attributes}
// to get company info
company.get() //=> {id: 1, type: "Company", name: "Silly corp"}
Using in Other Environments
You can set up scenarios for your app that use all your factories from tests updating
config/environment.js
.NOTE: Do not use settings in the
test
environment. Factories are enabled by default for thetest
environment and setting the flag tells factory-guy to load the app/scenarios files which are not needed for using factory-guy in testing. This will result in errors being generated if the app/scenarios files do not exist.// file: config/environment.js // in development you don't have to set enabled to true since that is default if (environment === 'development') { ENV.factoryGuy = { useScenarios: true }; ENV.locationType = 'auto'; ENV.rootURL = '/'; } // or if (environment === 'production') { ENV.factoryGuy = {enabled: true, useScenarios: true}; ENV.locationType = 'auto'; ENV.rootURL = '/'; }
Place your scenarios in the
app/scenarios
directory- Start by creating at least a
scenarios/main.js
file since this is the starting point - Your scenario classes should inherit from
Scenario
class - A scenario class should declare a run method where you do things like:
- include other scenarios
- you can compose scenarios like a symphony of notes
- make your data or mock your requests using the typical Factory Guy methods
- these methods are all built into scenario classes so you don't have to import them
- include other scenarios
// file: app/scenarios/main.js import {Scenario} from 'ember-data-factory-guy'; import Users from './users'; // Just for fun, set the log level ( to 1 ) and see all FactoryGuy response info in console Scenario.settings({ logLevel: 1, // 1 is the max for now, default is 0 }); export default class extends Scenario { run() { this.include([Users]); // include other scenarios this.mockFindAll('products', 3); // mock some finds this.mock({ type: 'POST', url: '/api/v1/users/sign_in', responseText: { token:"0123456789-ab" } }); // mock a custom endpoint } }
// file: app/scenarios/users.js import {Scenario} from 'ember-data-factory-guy'; export default class extends Scenario { run() { this.mockFindAll('user', 'boblike', 'normal'); this.mockDelete('user'); } }
- Start by creating at least a
Ember Data Model Fragments
As of 2.5.2 you can create factories which contain ember-data-model-fragments. Setting up your fragments is easy and follows the same process as setting up regular factories. The mapping between fragment types and their associations are like so:
Fragment Type | Association
--- | ---
fragment
| FactoryGuy.belongsTo
fragmentArray
| FactoryGuy.hasMany
array
| []
For example, say we have the following Employee
model which makes use of the fragment
, fragmentArray
and array
fragment types.
// Employee model
export default class Employee extends Model {
@fragment('name') name
@fragmentArray('phone-number') phoneNumbers
}
// Name fragment
export default class Name extends Fragment {
@array('string') titles
@attr('string') firstName
@attr('string') lastName
}
// Phone Number fragment
export default class PhoneNumber extends Fragment {
@attr('string') number
@attr('string') type
}
A factory for this model and its fragments would look like so:
// Employee factory
FactoryGuy.define('employee', {
default: {
name: FactoryGuy.belongsTo('name'), //fragment
phoneNumbers: FactoryGuy.hasMany('phone-number') //fragmentArray
}
});
// Name fragment factory
FactoryGuy.define('name', {
default: {
titles: ['Mr.', 'Dr.'], //array
firstName: 'Jon',
lastName: 'Snow'
}
});
// Phone number fragment factory
FactoryGuy.define('phone-number', {
default: {
number: '123-456-789',
type: 'home'
}
});
To set up associations manually ( and not necessarily in a factory ), you should do:
let phoneNumbers = makeList('phone-numbers', 2);
let employee = make('employee', { phoneNumbers });
// OR
let phoneNumbers = buildList('phone-numbers', 2).get();
let employee = build('employee', { phoneNumbers }).get();
For a more detailed example of setting up fragments have a look at:
- model test employee test.
- acceptance test employee-view-test.
Creating Factories in Addons
If you are making an addon with factories and you want the factories available to Ember apps using your addon, place the factories in test-support/factories
instead of tests/factories
. They should be available both within your addon and in Ember apps that use your addon.
Ember Django Adapter
- available since 2.6.1
- everything is setup automatically
- sideloading is not supported in
DRFSerializer
so all relationships should either- be set as embedded with
DS.EmbeddedRecordsMixin
if you want to usebuild
/buildList
- or use
make
/makeList
and in your mocks, and return models instead of json:
- be set as embedded with
let projects = makeList('projects', 2); // put projects in the store
let user = make('user', { projects }); // attach them to user
mockFindRecord('user').returns({model: user}); // now the mock will return a user that has projects
- using
fails()
with errors hash is not working reliably- so you can always just
mockWhatever(args).fails()
- so you can always just
Custom API formats
FactoryGuy handles JSON-API / RESTSerializer / JSONSerializer out of the box.
In case your API doesn't follow any of these conventions, you can still make a custom fixture builder
or modify the FixtureConverters
and JSONPayload
classes that exist.
- before I launch into the details, let me know if you need this hookup and I can guide you to a solution, since the use cases will be rare and varied.
FactoryGuy.cacheOnlyMode
- Allows you to setup the adapters to prevent them from fetching data with ajax calls
- for single models (
findRecord
) you have to put something in the store - for collections (
findAll
) you don't have to put anything in the store
- for single models (
- Takes
except
parameter as a list of models you don't want to cache- These model requests will go to the server with ajax calls and will need to be mocked
This is helpful, when:
- you want to set up the test data with
make
/makeList
, and then prevent calls likestore.findRecord
orstore.findAll
from fetching more data, since you have already setup the store withmake
/makeList
data. - you have an application that starts up and loads data that is not relevant to the test page you are working on.
Usage:
import FactoryGuy, { makeList } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
import moduleForAcceptance from '../helpers/module-for-acceptance';
moduleForAcceptance('Acceptance | Profiles View');
test("Using FactoryGuy.cacheOnlyMode", async function() {
FactoryGuy.cacheOnlyMode();
// the store.findRecord call for the user will go out unless there is a user
// in the store
make('user', {name: 'current'});
// the application starts up and makes calls to findAll a few things, but
// those can be ignored because of the cacheOnlyMode
// for this test I care about just testing profiles
makeList("profile", 2);
await visit('/profiles');
// test stuff
});
test("Using FactoryGuy.cacheOnlyMode with except", async function() {
FactoryGuy.cacheOnlyMode({except: ['profile']});
make('user', {name: 'current'});
// this time I want to allow the ajax call so I can return built json payload
mockFindAll("profile", 2);
await visit('/profiles');
// test stuff
});
Testing models, controllers, components
FactoryGuy needs to setup the factories before the test run.
By default, you only need to call
manualSetup(this)
in unit/component/acceptance testsOr you can use the new setupFactoryGuy(hooks) method if your using the new qunit style tests
- Sample usage: (works the same in any type of test)
import { setupFactoryGuy } from "ember-data-factory-guy"; module('Acceptance | User View', function(hooks) { setupApplicationTest(hooks); setupFactoryGuy(hooks); test("blah blah", async function(assert) { await visit('work'); assert.ok('bah was spoken'); }); });
Sample model test: profile-test.js
- Use
moduleForModel
( ember-qunit ), ordescribeModel
( ember-mocha ) test helper - manually set up FactoryGuy
- Use
Sample component test: single-user-test.js
- Using
moduleForComponent
( ember-qunit ), ordescribeComponent
( ember-mocha ) helper - manually sets up FactoryGuy
import { make, manualSetup } from 'ember-data-factory-guy'; import hbs from 'htmlbars-inline-precompile'; import { test, moduleForComponent } from 'ember-qunit'; moduleForComponent('single-user', 'Integration | Component | single-user (manual setup)', { integration: true, beforeEach: function () { manualSetup(this); } }); test("shows user information", function () { let user = make('user', {name: 'Rob'}); this.render(hbs`{{single-user user=user}}`); this.set('user', user); ok(this.$('.name').text().match(user.get('name'))); ok(this.$('.funny-name').text().match(user.get('funnyName'))); });

Acceptance Tests

setupApplicationTest
check out demo here: user-view-test.js:
Using mock methods
Uses pretender
- for mocking the ajax calls made by ember-data
- pretender library is installed with FactoryGuy
http GET mocks
- mockFindRecord
- mockFindAll
- mockReload
- mockQuery
- mockQueryRecord
- takes modifier method
returns()
for setting the payload responsereturns()
accepts parameters like: json, model, models, id, ids, headers- headers are cumulative so you can add as many as you like
- Example:
let mock = mockFindAll('user').returns({headers: {'X-Man': "Wolverine"}); mock.returns({headers: {'X-Weapon': "Claws"}});
- these mocks are are reusable
- so you can simulate making the same ajax call ( url ) and return a different payload
http POST/PUT/DELETE
Custom mocks (http GET/POST/PUT/DELETE)
Use method
fails()
to simulate failureUse method
succeeds()
to simulate success- Only used if the mock was set to fail with
fails()
and you want to set the mock to succeed to simulate a successful retry
- Only used if the mock was set to fail with
Use property
timesCalled
to verify how many times the ajax call was mocked- works when you are using
mockQuery
,mockQueryRecord
,mockFindAll
,mockReload
, ormockUpdate
mockFindRecord
will always be at most 1 since it will only make ajax call the first time, and then the store will use cache the second time- Example:
const mock = mockQueryRecord('company', {}).returns({ json: build('company') }); FactoryGuy.store.queryRecord('company', {}).then(()=> { FactoryGuy.store.queryRecord('company', {}).then(()=> { mock.timesCalled //=> 2 }); });
- works when you are using
Use method
disable()
to temporarily disable the mock. You can re-enable the disabled mock usingenable()
.Use method
destroy()
to completely remove the mock handler for the mock. TheisDestroyed
property is set totrue
when the mock is destroyed.
setup
- As of v2.13.15 mockSetup and mockTeardown are no longer needed
- Use FactoryGuy.settings to set:
- logLevel ( 0 - off , 1 - on ) for seeing the FactoryGuy responses
- responseTime ( in millis ) for simulating slower responses
- Example:
FactoryGuy.settings({logLevel: 1, responseTime: 1000});
Using fails method
Usable on all mocks
Use optional object arguments status and response and convertErrors to customize
- status : must be number in the range of 3XX, 4XX, or 5XX ( default is 500 )
- response : must be object with errors key ( default is null )
- convertErrors : set to false and object will be left untouched ( default is true )
- errors must be in particular format for ember-data to accept them
- FactoryGuy allows you to use a simple style:
{errors: {name: "Name too short"}}
- Behind the scenes converts to another format for ember-data to consume
- FactoryGuy allows you to use a simple style:
- errors must be in particular format for ember-data to accept them
Examples:
let errors401 = {errors: {description: "Unauthorized"}};
let mock = mockFindAll('user').fails({status: 401, response: errors401});
let errors422 = {errors: {name: "Name too short"}};
let mock = mockFindRecord('profile').fails({status: 422, response: errors422});
let errorsMine = {errors: [{detail: "Name too short", title: "I am short"}]};
let mock = mockFindRecord('profile').fails({status: 422, response: errorsMine, convertErrors: false});
mockFindRecord
- For dealing with finding one record of a model type =>
store.findRecord('modelType', id)
- Can pass in arguments just like you would for
make
orbuild
mockFindRecord
( fixture or model name, optional traits, optional attributes object)
- Takes modifier method
returns()
for controlling the response payload- returns( model / json / id )
- Takes modifier method
adapterOptions()
for setting adapterOptions ( get passed to urlForFindRecord ) - Sample acceptance tests using
mockFindRecord
: user-view-test.js:
Usage:
import { build, make, mockFindRecord } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
- To return default factory model type ( 'user' in this case )
// mockFindRecord automatically returns json for the modelType ( in this case 'user' )
let mock = mockFindRecord('user');
let userId = mock.get('id');
- Using
returns({json})
to return json object
let user = build('user', 'whacky', {isDude: true});
let mock = mockFindRecord('user').returns({ json: user });
// user.get('id') => 1
// user.get('style') => 'whacky'
// or to acccomplish the same thing with less code
let mock = mockFindRecord('user', 'whacky', {isDude: true});
// mock.get('id') => 1
// mock.get('style') => 'whacky'
let user = mock.get();
// user.id => 1
// user.style => 'whacky'
- Using
returns({model})
to return model instance
let user = make('user', 'whacky', {isDude: false});
let mock = mockFindRecord('user').returns({ model: user });
// user.get('id') => 1
// you can now also user.get('any-computed-property')
// since you have a real model instance
- Simper way to return a model instance
let user = make('user', 'whacky', {isDude: false});
let mock = mockFindRecord(user);
// user.get('id') === mock.get('id')
// basically a shortcut to the above .returns({ model: user })
// as this sets up the returns for you
- To reuse the mock
let user2 = build('user', {style: "boring"});
mock.returns({ json: user2 });
// mock.get('id') => 2
- To mock failure case use
fails
method
mockFindRecord('user').fails();
- To mock failure when you have a model already
let profile = make('profile');
mockFindRecord(profile).fails();
// mock.get('id') === profile.id
- To use adapterOptions
let mock = mockFindRecord('user').adapterOptions({friendly: true});
// used when urlForFindRecord (defined in adapter) uses them
urlForFindRecord(id, modelName, snapshot) {
if (snapshot && snapshot.adapterOptions) {
let { adapterOptions } = snapshot; // => {friendly: true}
// ... blah blah blah
}
// ... blah blah
}
mockFindAll
- For dealing with finding all records for a model type =>
store.findAll(modelType)
- Takes same parameters as makeList
mockFindAll
( fixture or model name, optional number, optional traits, optional attributes object)
- Takes modifier method
returns()
for controlling the response payload- returns( models / json / ids )
- Takes modifier method
adapterOptions()
for setting adapterOptions ( get passed to urlForFindAll )- used just as in mockFindRecord ( see example there )
- Sample acceptance tests using
mockFindAll
: users-view-test.js
Usage:
import { buildList, makeList, mockFindAll } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
- To mock and return no results
let mock = mockFindAll('user');
- Using
returns({json})
to return json object
// that has 2 different users:
let users = buildList('user', 'whacky', 'silly');
let mock = mockFindAll('user').returns({ json: users });
let user1 = users.get(0);
let user2 = users.get(1);
// user1.style => 'whacky'
// user2.style => 'silly'
// or to acccomplish the same thing with less code
let mock = mockFindAll('user', 'whacky', 'silly');
let user1 = mock.get(0);
let user2 = mock.get(1);
// user1.style => 'whacky'
// user2.style => 'silly'
- Using
returns({models})
to return model instances
let users = makeList('user', 'whacky', 'silly');
let mock = mockFindAll('user').returns({ models: users });
let user1 = users[0];
// you can now also user1.get('any-computed-property')
// since you have a real model instance
- To reuse the mock and return different payload
let users2 = buildList('user', 3);
mock.returns({ json: user2 });
- To mock failure case use
fails()
method
mockFindAll('user').fails();
mockReload
- To handle reloading a model
- Pass in a record ( or a typeName and id )
Usage:
- Passing in a record / model instance
let profile = make('profile');
mockReload(profile);
// will stub a call to reload that profile
profile.reload()
- Using
returns({attrs})
to return new attributes
let profile = make('profile', { description: "whatever" });
mockReload(profile).returns({ attrs: { description: "moo" } });
profile.reload(); // description is now "moo"
- Using
returns({json})
to return all new attributes
let profile = make('profile', { description: "tomatoes" });
// all new values EXCEPT the profile id ( you should keep that id the same )
let profileAllNew = build('profile', { id: profile.get('id'), description: "potatoes" }
mockReload(profile).returns({ json: profileAllNew });
profile.reload(); // description = "potatoes"
- Mocking a failed reload
mockReload('profile', 1).fails();
mockQuery
- For dealing with querying for all records for a model type =>
store.query(modelType, params)
- Takes modifier method
returns()
for controlling the response payload- returns( models / json / ids )
- Takes modifier method
- Takes modifier methods for matching the query params
-
withParams( object )
-withSomeParams( object )
- Sample acceptance tests using
mockQuery
: user-search-test.js
Usage:
import FactoryGuy, { make, build, buildList, mockQuery } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
let store = FactoryGuy.store;
// This simulates a query that returns no results
mockQuery('user', {age: 10});
store.query('user', {age: 10}}).then((userInstances) => {
/// userInstances will be empty
})
- with returns( models )
// Create model instances
let users = makeList('user', 2, 'with_hats');
mockQuery('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10}).returns({models: users});
store.query('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10}}).then((models)=> {
// models are the same as the users array
});
- with returns ( json )
// Create json with buildList
let users = buildList('user', 2, 'with_hats');
mockQuery('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10}).returns({json: users});
store.query('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10}}).then((models)=> {
// these models were created from the users json
});
- with returns( ids )
// Create list of models
let users = buildList('user', 2, 'with_hats');
let user1 = users.get(0);
mockQuery('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10}).returns({ids: [user1.id]});
store.query('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10}}).then(function(models) {
// models will be one model and it will be user1
});
- withParams() / withSomeParams()
// Create list of models
let users = buildList('user', 2, 'with_hats');
let user1 = users.get(0);
mock = mockQuery('user').returns({ids: [user1.id]});
mock.withParams({name:'Bob', age: 10})
// When using 'withParams' modifier, params hash must match exactly
store.query('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10}}).then(function(models) {
// models will be one model and it will be user1
});
// The following call will not be caught by the mock
store.query('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10, hair: 'brown'}})
// 'withSomeParams' is designed to catch requests by partial match
// It has precedence over strict params matching once applied
mock.withSomeParams({name:'Bob'})
// Now both requests will be intercepted
store.query('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10}})
store.query('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10, hair: 'brown'}})
mockQueryRecord
- For dealing with querying for one record for a model type =>
store.queryRecord(modelType, params)
- takes modifier method
returns()
for controlling the response payload- returns( model / json / id )
- takes modifier method
- takes modifier methods for matching the query params - withParams( object )
Usage:
import FactoryGuy, { make, build, mockQueryRecord } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
let store = FactoryGuy.store;
// This simulates a query that returns no results
mockQueryRecord('user', {age: 10});
store.queryRecord('user', {age: 10}}).then((userInstance) => {
/// userInstance will be empty
})
- with returns( models )
// Create model instances
let user = make('user');
mockQueryRecord('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10}).returns({model: user});
store.queryRecord('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10}}).then((model)=> {
// model is the same as the user you made
});
- with returns( json )
// Create json with buildList
let user = build('user');
mockQueryRecord('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10}).returns({json: user});
store.queryRecord('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10}}).then((model)=> {
// user model created from the user json
});
- with returns( ids )
// Create list of models
let user = build('user', 'with_hats');
mockQueryRecord('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10}).returns({id: user.get('id')});
store.queryRecord('user', {name:'Bob', age: 10}}).then(function(model) {
// model will be one model and it will be user1
});
mockCreate
- Use chainable methods to build the response
- match: takes a hash with attributes or a matching function
- attributes that must be in request json
- These will be added to the response json automatically, so you don't need to include them in the returns hash.
- If you match on a
belongsTo
association, you don't have to include that in the returns hash either ( same idea )
- a function that can be used to perform an arbitrary match against the request
json, returning
true
if there is a match,false
otherwise.
- returns
- attributes ( including relationships ) to include in response json
- match: takes a hash with attributes or a matching function
- Need to import
run
from@ember/runloop
and wrap tests usingmockCreate
with:run(function() { 'your test' })
Realistically, you will have code in a view action or controller action that will create the record, and setup any associations.
// most actions that create a record look something like this:
action: {
addProject: function (user) {
let name = this.$('button.project-name').val();
this.store.createRecord('project', {name: name, user: user}).save();
}
}
In this case, you are are creating a 'project' record with a specific name, and belonging
to a particular user. To mock this createRecord
call here are a few ways to do this using
chainable methods.
Usage:
import { makeNew, mockCreate } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
// Simplest case
// Don't care about a match just handle createRecord for any project
mockCreate('project');
// use a model you created already from store.createRecord or makeNew
// need to use this style if you need the model in the urlForCreateRecord snapshot
let project = makeNew('project');
mockCreate(project);
// Matching some attributes
mockCreate('project').match({name: "Moo"});
// Match all attributes
mockCreate('project').match({name: "Moo", user: user});
// Match using a function that checks that the request's top level attribute "name" equals 'Moo'
mockCreate('project').match(requestData => requestData.name === 'Moo');
// Exactly matching attributes, and returning extra attributes
mockCreate('project')
.match({name: "Moo", user: user})
.returns({created_at: new Date()});
// Returning belongsTo relationship. Assume outfit belongsTo 'person'
let person = build('super-hero'); // it's polymorphic
mockCreate('outfit').returns({attrs: { person }});
// Returning hasMany relationship. Assume super-hero hasMany 'outfits'
let outfits = buildList('outfit', 2);
mockCreate('super-hero').returns({attrs: { outfits }});
- mocking a failed create
// Mocking failure case is easy with chainable methods, just use #fails
mockCreate('project').match({name: "Moo"}).fails();
// Can optionally add a status code and/or errors to the response
mockCreate('project').fails({status: 422, response: {errors: {name: ['Moo bad, Bahh better']}}});
store.createRecord('project', {name: "Moo"}).save(); //=> fails
mockUpdate
mockUpdate(model)
- Single argument ( the model instance that will be updated )
mockUpdate(modelType, id)
- Two arguments: modelType ( like 'profile' ) , and the profile id that will updated
- Use chainable methods to help build response:
match
: takes a hash with attributes or a matching function- attributes with values that must be present on the model you are updating
- a function that can be used to perform an arbitrary match against the request
json, returning
true
if there is a match,false
otherwise.
- returns
- attributes ( including relationships ) to include in response json
- Need to import
run
from@ember/runloop
and wrap tests usingmockUpdate
with:run(function() { 'your test' })
Usage:
import { make, mockUpdate } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
let profile = make('profile');
// Pass in the model that will be updated ( if you have it available )
mockUpdate(profile);
// If the model is not available, pass in the modelType and the id of
// the model that will be updated
mockUpdate('profile', 1);
profile.set('description', 'good value');
profile.save() //=> will succeed
// Returning belongsTo relationship. Assume outfit belongsTo 'person'
let outfit = make('outfit');
let person = build('super-hero'); // it's polymorphic
outfit.set('name','outrageous');
mockUpdate(outfit).returns({attrs: { person }});
outfit.save(); //=> saves and returns superhero
// Returning hasMany relationship. Assume super-hero hasMany 'outfits'
let superHero = make('super-hero');
let outfits = buildList('outfit', 2, {name:'bell bottoms'});
superHero.set('style','laid back');
mockUpdate(superHero).returns({attrs: { outfits }});

mockDelete
- Need to import
run
from@ember/runloop
and wrap tests usingmockDelete
with:run(function() { 'your test' })
- To handle deleting a model
- Pass in a record ( or a typeName and id )
Usage:
- Passing in a record / model instance
import { make, mockDelete } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
let profile = make('profile');
mockDelete(profile);
profile.destroyRecord() // => will succeed
- Passing in a model typeName and id
import { make, mockDelete } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
let profile = make('profile');
mockDelete('profile', profile.id);
profile.destroyRecord() // => will succeed
- Passing in a model typeName
import { make, mockDelete } from 'ember-data-factory-guy';
let profile1 = make('profile');
let profile2 = make('p
