= thin-async-test

• https://github.com/phiggins/thin-async-test

== DESCRIPTION:

Rack middleware to convince thin-async and rack-test to play nicely.

== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

• Allows async thin apps to be tested like regular synchronous ones.
• Doesn't interfere with regular synchronous apps.
• Stops and starts the eventmachine reactor for each test, so test speed suffers.

== SYNOPSIS:

require 'thin/async'

Step 1: Make your rack app that uses thin and thin-async's AsyncResponse.

class MyRackApp def call(env) response = Thin::AsyncResponse.new(env)

  response.headers["X-Foo"] = "bar"

  response << "Here's some body..."

  EM.add_timer(0.1) do
    response << "long running action"

    response.done
  end
  
  response.finish
end  

end

Step 2: Create your test class with rack-test.

class TestMyRackApp < MiniTest::Unit::TestCase include Rack::Test::Methods

# Step 3: Define your app method, but wrap it with a Thin::Async::Test
def app
  Thin::Async::Test.new(MyRackApp)
end

# Step 4: You can test your async rack actions like syncronous ones.
def test_my_rack_app
  get("/")

  assert_equal 200, last_response.status 
end

end

== REQUIREMENTS:

• Designed to work with thin and thin-async, but could potentially work with other stuff.
• Tested with eventmachine-1.0.0.beta.3 and ruby-1.9.2-p180.

== INSTALL:

Nothing special.
