supertest-light

supertest-light is

• an ultra-minimalist take on supertest
• much smaller
• and removes idiosyncratic aspects such as expect

.get(path)

  const request = require("supertest-light");
  const assert = require("assert");
  const app = require("express")();

  app.get("/user/:username/messages", (req,res,next) => {
    assert.equal(req.headers["user-agent"], "Supertest-Light")
    return res.end(`Hello ${req.params.username}!`)
  })

  request(app)
  .set("User-Agent", "Supertest-Light")
  .get("/user/bart/messages")
  .then((res) => {
    assert.equal(res.text, "Hello bart!");
  })

.post(path, postData)

  const request = require("supertest-light");
  const express = require("express");
  const assert = require("assert")

  const app = express();
  app.post("/user/:userId/messages", express.json(), (req,res,next) => {
    return res.end(`doubled: ${req.body.num * 2}`)
  })

  request(app)
  .post("/user/a1234/messages?language=en", {num:34})
  .then((res) => {
    assert.equal(res.text, "doubled: 68", "postData received and text is property assigned to response");
  })
