Hi Everyone,
I am trying to write test for ktor client:

@Test
fun `getScreenData returns Success with screen data`() = runBlocking {

    val mockScreenId = "test_screen_id"
    val mockScreenData = ScreenJson("test_id", "test_data", "test_type", "test_url")
    val mockHttpClient = mockk<HttpClient>()
    every { networkKtorModule.client } returns mockHttpClient
    coEvery {
        mockHttpClient.get<ScreenJson>("${networkKtorModule.networkConfig.baseUrl}/screens/$mockScreenId")
    } answers {
        val mockResponse = mockk<HttpResponse>()
        every { mockResponse.status } returns HttpStatusCode.OK
        every { mockResponse.receive<String>() } returns mockScreenData
        mockResponse
    }

    val result = apiService.getScreenData(mockScreenId)
}

When trying to mock api call, I am getting Type mismatch.:

coEvery {
        mockHttpClient.get<ScreenJson>("${networkKtorModule.networkConfig.baseUrl}/screens/$mockScreenId")

}
Required:
MockKMatcherScope.DynamicCall
Found:
HttpResponse

Any help will be appreciated.

Unfortunately, that not gonna work because the HttpClient.get is an inline method. To mock the response you can use the MockEngine.
