This is a library with test utilities for CAP Node.js applications, like
- Starting and stopping a CAP server before and after tests
- A bound HTTP client for the server
chai
-like assertion helpers
In your application project, just install the package as dev dependency:
npm add -D @cap-js/cds-test
Important
This package requires @sap/cds
8.8.0 or higher. This version will be published beginning of March 2025.
Add a simple test file test/bookshop.test.js
with this content:
import cds from '@sap/cds'
describe('Sample tests', () => {
const { GET, expect } = cds.test (import.meta.dirname+'/..')
it('serves Books', async () => {
const { data } = await GET `/odata/v4/catalog/Books`
expect(data.value.length).to.be.greaterThanOrEqual(5)
})
})
Run it with Jest, for example:
npx jest
node --test
and mocha
runners are supported, too, though with less coverage in real-life projects.
See the CAP documentation on cds.test
for more.
