Description

As a reminder, this project is being built upon the following starter project on Repl.it, or cloned from GitHub.

Instructions

Replace assert.fail(). Test the status and the text.response. Make the test pass. Send your name in the query appending ?name=<your_name>, the endpoint responds with 'hello <your_name>'.

Tests

tests:
  - text: All tests should pass
    testString: getUserInput => $.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/get-tests?type=functional&n=1').then(data => { assert.equal(data.state,'passed'); }, xhr => { throw new Error(xhr.responseText); })
  - text: You should test for 'res.status' == 200
    testString: getUserInput => $.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/get-tests?type=functional&n=1').then(data => { assert.equal(data.assertions[0].method, 'equal'); assert.equal(data.assertions[0].args[0], 'res.status'); assert.equal(data.assertions[0].args[1], '200');}, xhr => { throw new Error(xhr.responseText); })
  - text: You should test for 'res.text' == 'hello Guest'
    testString: getUserInput => $.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/get-tests?type=functional&n=1').then(data => { assert.equal(data.assertions[1].method, 'equal'); assert.equal(data.assertions[1].args[0], 'res.text'); assert.match(data.assertions[1].args[1], /hello [\w\d_-]/);}, xhr => { throw new Error(xhr.responseText); })
