Usage / Quick Start

Use it in tests of Serverless functions to test your HTTP endpoints along with the handler code. For example, you can write the following to test a Serverless function:

it('should invoke simple path', function () {
  let response = invoker.invoke('GET api/hello')
  return expect(response).to.eventually.have.property('statusCode', 200)
})

The test above is a test of a Serverless function defined in a Serverless.yml as follows:

functions:
  hello:
    handler: handler.hello
    events:
      - http:
          path: api/hello
          method: get
