Getting Started

Requirements/dependencies

PHP >= 8.1.1

Installation

Git

git clone https://github.com/jamesjohnmcguire/ApiTest

Composer

composer require --dev https://packagist.org/packages/digitalzenworks/api-test

Usage:

There is one main class with one main method. You can call it like this:

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

use DigitalZenWorks\ApiTest\ApiTester;

final class UnitTests extends TestCase
{
	public function testApiEndPointAccountCount()
	{
		$data = [];
		$apiTester = new APITester('https://example.com');
		$response =
			$this->apiTester->testApiEndPoint('PUT', 'accounts_count', $data);

		$this->assertIsArray($response);
	}
)

The main method parameters are:

Type:	Parameter:
string	The HTTP method to use.
string	The API end point.
?string	The request data.
bool or string	The data type. True,
	if it is multipart form
	data. Implying some of
	the data may be binary.
	If it is false, it will
	of 'form_params'. If it
	is a string, the string
	indicates the type of
	data ('body', 'json',
	'form_params', 'query',
	'form_params').

Additional Notes

This uses Guzzle to process the API request.
