Tests

This gem has offline and online tests written using RSpec. Offline tests use Webmock to stub HTTP requests, while online tests performs the requests to Sendgrid to ensure all the calls and responses are correctly.

The online tests are written in a way that they don't change the state of the objects already existing on SendGrid account. It means if something is added, it's removed at the end of the test. If something is changed, it's changed back after the test finishes. If it's necessary to remove something, it's added before the test starts.

Use the SENDGRID_USER and SENDGRID_KEY environment variables to authenticate the online tests.

To run all tests (both offline and online):

$ ALL=1 SENDGRID_USER=your_user SENDGRID_KEY=your_key bundle exec rake spec

To run only online tests:

$ SENDGRID_USER=your_user SENDGRID_KEY=your_key bundle exec rake spec[online]

To run only offline tests (default):

$ bundle exec rake spec
