Provides a generic test suite for Passwordless TokenStore implementations
npm install passwordless-tokenstore-testThis module provides generic tests for the implementation of custom TokenStores for Passwordless, a node.js module for express that allows website authentication without password using verification through email or other means.
In the folder of your custom TokenStore implementation do:
$ npm install passwordless-tokenstore-test --save-dev
Afterwards, you can simply call the test suite as part of your other tests. For example:
``javascript
var standardTests = require('passwordless-tokenstore-test');
function TokenStoreFactory() {
return new YourTokenStore();
}
var beforeEachTest = function(done) {
// clean database before usage
done();
}
var afterEachTest = function(done) {
// any other activity after each test
done();
}
// Call the test suite
standardTests(TokenStoreFactory, beforeEachTest, afterEachTest);
describe('Your specific tests', function() {
beforeEach(function(done) {
beforeEachTest(done);
})
afterEach(function(done) {
afterEachTest(done);
})
it('should...', function () {
expect(...).to...
})
})
`
The exported function has to be called with the following parameter:
`javascript``
standardTests(TokenStoreFactory(), beforeEachTest(done), afterEachTest(done), [timeout]);
- TokenStoreFactory: has to provide a fresh instance of your TokenStore with each call
- beforeEachTest: will be called before each test of the standard test suite. Please make sure that you call done()
- afterEachTest: will be called after each test of the standard test suite. Please make sure that you call done()
- timeout (defaults to 200ms): The expected time it takes to store the data in the database in a typical test environment. A higher value will slow down your tests, but a too low value might result in failed tests due to data that is not yet written
All parameters are mandatory.
The test suite expects a clean state of the TokenStore (incl. the underlying database) for each test. You may use beforeEachTest to clean the state of the database.
