facebook-stub

Facebook JS Stub

Include facebook-stub.js when in your testing environment, and don't include the facebook all.js

facebook-stub.js creates valid md5 sig cookie which will be passed to the server.

Overview

FacebookStub provides two global objects:

• FB emulates the same behavior as the FB object.
• FBWorld provides entries to get and set facebook states.

FBWorld Usage

The first think you need to do is FBWorld.setSecret(Your App Secret). This allows the creation of valid cookies.

Setting State

Then you can simulate different user states by using:

FBWorld.notLoggedIn();
FBWorld.loggedIn();
FBWorld.notConnected();
FBWorld.connected();

Connecting your app as a user

If you are not connected to the application, then when FB.login is called, you will need to respond with either

FBWorld.allowConnection(); or
FBWorld.denyConnection();

The difference between being not being logged in and connecting and being not logged in has not been flushed out yet, as it's purely a facebook state. In terms of the app, you're either connected or not.

Helper Functions

FBWorld provides you with these helper functions for debugging your application state

FBWorld.state();
FBWorld.setUid();
FBWorld.uid();
FBWorld.beingPromptedToLogin;
FBWorld.beingPromptedToConnect;

Forking Instructions

If you modify facebook-stub.js directly it will be overwritten by builder/concat. Modify src/ files only

Simulating FB Simple Share

  // App code being tested
  FB.ui({method:'feed', etc:…}, function(){ … })

  // test pseudo code
  FBWorld.beingPromptedToShare;         //=> false
  FBWorld.beingPromptedToShareOptions;  //=> null
  FBWorld.beingPromptedToShareCallback; //=> null

  // do whatever causes the above app code to be called
  FBWorld.beingPromptedToLogin; //=> true
  FBWorld.beingPromptedToShareOptions;  //=> {method:'feed', etc:…}
  FBWorld.beingPromptedToShareCallback; //=> function(){ … }

  // simulate sharing
  FBWorld.confirmSharePrompt();
  // the callback is called here with a response stub containing a post id

  FBWorld.beingPromptedToShare;         //=> false
  FBWorld.beingPromptedToShareOptions;  //=> null
  FBWorld.beingPromptedToShareCallback; //=> null

  // OR

  // do whatever causes the above app code to be called
  FBWorld.beingPromptedToLogin; //=> true
  FBWorld.beingPromptedToShareOptions;  //=> {method:'feed', etc:…}
  FBWorld.beingPromptedToShareCallback; //=> function(){ … }

  // simulate sharing
  FBWorld.cancelSharePrompt();
  // the callback is called here with a response stub not containing a post id

  FBWorld.beingPromptedToShare;         //=> false
  FBWorld.beingPromptedToShareOptions;  //=> null
  FBWorld.beingPromptedToShareCallback; //=> null
