How one should test an API which depends on other web services (SOAP
etc). e.g. Login to my API internally calls to another webservice API
for authentication. Also all the data sent back by my API is actually
data retrieved from another web service. Also should we verify the data
or just responses
Thanks for all your answers,
I should have said I'm very used to the workflow of integration specs
and capybara.
My question is really oriented towards API testing and particularly on
the use of Active Resource.
Basically, I'd like to:
a- create ActiveResource classes in rspec/support
b- run my
Agreed. This is even more a bullet to bite early if your app orchestrates
over more than one service, or if services talk to other services or both.
Testing this kind of setup is pretty difficult and the tests are typically
very brittle.
