Forgery

Forgery is a set of testing tools for Node.js and client-side MVC applications. Specifically it's designed to integrate well with popular testing frameworks like:

• Cucumber.js
• Jasmine-Node
• Nock

Installation & Setup

To install the latest stable version of Forgery, use npm with the following command:

npm install forgery

Factory

Forgery.Factory is a JSON fixtures library for Node.js. It is usful for stubbing out API responses and creating JSON unique JSON objects for testing.

Setup and Usage

Forgery's Factory functionality is heavily inspired by Factory Girl. In order to use it, all you have to do is require it and define some factories. For example:

var Factory = require('forgery').Factory;

Factory.define('MyFactory', {
  "foo": "bar",
});

... etc ...

Now when ever you need to create a new factory, you have access to it through the Factory method:

Factory('MyFactory') 
//=> { id: '9e55f9ad9411aea49d554ae4e0b5c306', foo:'bar' }

We can also easily override the default attributes by passing in an options hash as a second parameter.

Factory('MyFactory', { foo: 'tab' }) 
//=> { id: '9e55f9ad9411aea49d554ae4e0b5c306', foo:'tab' }

An initial Warning

WARNING: Forgery is under heavy development and will not be subject to semantic versioning standards until version 0.0.1. Please be aware that API changes may occur in the mean time.
