CodeceptJS helper for simplest email check using remote maildev server
Installation
npm install --save-dev condeceptjs-remote-maildev-helper
Running remote server
On the target remote host clone codeceptjs-remote-maildev, install dependencies with npm and start. NodeJS should be installed.
git pull https://github.com/kuzjka/codeceptjs-remote-maildev.git
cd codeceptjs-remote-maildev
npm install
npm run serve
Alternatively, you can use Docker image
docker run --name remote-maildev -d kuzjka/codeceptjs-remote-maildev
By default, SMTP listens on port 25 and REST API is exposed on 8080.
You can override it with SMTP_PORT
and WEB_PORT
environment variables.
CodeceptJS configuration
In codecept.conf.json:
{
//...
"helpers": {
//...
"RemoteMaildevHelper": {
"require": "./node_modules/codeceptjs-remote-maildev-helper",
"host": "123.124.125.126",
"port": "8080"
}
}
}
Default value for host
is localhost
, and for port
is 8080
.
You may run
npx codeceptjs def .
to generate typescript definitions for all installed helpers - this adds code autocompletion to IDEs, which support TypeScript.
Usage
Configure your application to use remote Maildev server (see Maildev docs).
In your CodeceptJS scenario use I.haveMailbox(address)
to initialize mailbox and I.grabNextUnreadMail()
to get email object.
For example:
Scenario('test email sending' async (I) => {
I.haveMailbox('[email protected]');
I.amOnPage('/sendMeEmail');
I.fillField('email', '[email protected]');
I.click('Send Me Email!');
const email = await I.grabNextUnreadMail();
I.say('I have email: ' + email.subject);
});
I.grabNextUnreadMail()
returns Promise
like all CodeceptJS grabber methods. It resolves to email object, which is used by Maildev and seems to conform Mailparser specification.
You may register more recipient addresses by adding more I.haveMailbox()
calls.
