aresponses

image image build status Code style: black

an asyncio testing server for mocking external services

Features

  • Fast mocks using actual network connections
  • allows mocking some types of network issues
  • use regular expression matching for domain, path, method, or body
  • works with https requests as well (by switching them to http requests)
  • works with callables

Usage

Add routes and responses via the aresponses.add method:

def add(
    host_pattern=ANY, 
    path_pattern=ANY, 
    method_pattern=ANY, 
    response="", 
    *, 
    route=None, 
    body_pattern=ANY, m
    match_querystring=False, 
    repeat=1
    )

When a request is received the first matching response will be returned and removed from the routing table. The response argument can be either a string, Response, dict, or list. Use aresponses.Response when you need to do something more complex.

Note that version >=2.0 requires explicit assertions!

@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_simple(aresponses):
    aresponses.add("google.com", "/api/v1/", "GET", response="OK")
    aresponses.add('foo.com', '/', 'get', aresponses.Response(text='error', status=500))

    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
        async with session.get("http://google.com/api/v1/") as response:
            text = await response.text()
            assert text == "OK"
        
        async with session.get("https://foo.com") as response:
            text = await response.text()
            assert text == "error"

    aresponses.assert_plan_strictly_followed()

Assertions

In aresponses 1.x requests that didn't match a route stopped the event loop and thus forced an exception. In aresponses >2.x it's required to make assertions at the end of the test.

There are three assertion functions provided:

  • aresponses.assert_no_unused_routes Raises UnusedRouteError if all the routes defined were not used up.
  • aresponses.assert_called_in_order - Raises UnorderedRouteCallError if the routes weren't called in the order they were defined.
  • aresponses.assert_all_requests_matched - Raises NoRouteFoundError if any requests were made that didn't match to a route. It's likely but not guaranteed that your code will throw an exception in this situation before the assertion is reached.

Instead of calling these individually, it's recommended to call aresponses.assert_plan_strictly_followed() at the end of each test as it runs all three of the above assertions.

Regex and Repeat

host_pattern, path_pattern, method_pattern and body_pattern may be either strings (exact match) or regular expressions.

The repeat argument permits a route to be used multiple times.

If you want to just blanket mock a service, without concern for how many times its called, you could set repeat to a large number and not call aresponses.assert_plan_strictly_followed or arespones.assert_no_unused_routes.

@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_regex_repetition(aresponses):
    aresponses.add(re.compile(r".*\.?google\.com"), response="OK", repeat=2)

    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
        async with session.get("http://google.com") as response:
            text = await response.text()
            assert text == "OK"

        async with session.get("http://api.google.com") as response:
            text = await response.text()
            assert text == "OK"

    aresponses.assert_plan_strictly_followed()

Json Responses

As a convenience, if a dict or list is passed to response then it will create a json response. A aiohttp.web_response.json_response object can be used for more complex situations.

@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_json(aresponses):
    aresponses.add("google.com", "/api/v1/", "GET", response={"status": "OK"})

    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
        async with session.get("http://google.com/api/v1/") as response:
            assert {"status": "OK"} == await response.json()

    aresponses.assert_plan_strictly_followed()

Custom Handler

Custom functions can be used for whatever other complex logic is desired. In the example below, the handler is set to repeat infinitely and always return 500.

import math

@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_handler(aresponses):
    def break_everything(request):
        return aresponses.Response(status=500, text=str(request.url))

    aresponses.add(response=break_everything, repeat=math.inf)

    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
        async with session.get("http://google.com/api/v1/") as response:
            assert response.status == 500

Passthrough

Pass aresponses.passthrough into the response argument to allow a request to bypass mocking.

    aresponses.add('httpstat.us', '/200', 'get', aresponses.passthrough)

Inspecting history

History of calls can be inspected via aresponses.history which returns the namedTuple RoutingLog(request, route, response)

@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_history(aresponses):
    aresponses.add(response=aresponses.Response(text="hi"), repeat=2)

    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
        async with session.get("http://foo.com/b") as response:
            await response.text()
        async with session.get("http://bar.com/a") as response:
            await response.text()

    assert len(aresponses.history) == 2
    assert aresponses.history[0].request.host == "foo.com"
    assert aresponses.history[1].request.host == "bar.com"
    assert "Route(" in repr(aresponses.history[0].route)
    aresponses.assert_plan_strictly_followed()

Context manager usage

import aiohttp
import pytest
import aresponses


@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_foo(event_loop):
    async with aresponses.ResponsesMockServer(loop=event_loop) as arsps:
        arsps.add('foo.com', '/', 'get', 'hi there!!')
        arsps.add(arsps.ANY, '/', 'get', arsps.Response(text='hey!'))
        
        async with aiohttp.ClientSession(loop=event_loop) as session:
            async with session.get('http://foo.com') as response:
                text = await response.text()
                assert text == 'hi'
            
            async with session.get('https://google.com') as response:
                text = await response.text()
                assert text == 'hey!'
        

working with pytest-aiohttp

If you need to use aresponses together with pytest-aiohttp, you should re-initialize the main aresponses fixture with the loop fixture

from aresponses import ResponsesMockServer

@pytest.fixture
async def aresponses(loop):
    async with ResponsesMockServer(loop=loop) as server:
        yield server

If you're trying to use the aiohttp_client test fixture then you'll need to mock out the aiohttp loop fixture instead:

@pytest.fixture
def loop(event_loop):
    """replace aiohttp loop fixture with pytest-asyncio fixture"""
    return event_loop
