Are there any examples of unit test that mocks out Apollo client?

[John O'Reilly]

I see there's a MockWebServer ....that I think you then use when constructing ApolloClient

serverUrl(mockServer.url())

[John O'Reilly]

only small issue right now is I'm using Koin to construct ApolloClient and that url() looks to be suspend function...

[John O'Reilly]

ok, have way around that and looking to mock the json coming back now

[John O'Reilly]

updates in https://github.com/joreilly/StarWars/blob/main/shared/src/commonTest/kotlin/dev/johnoreilly/starwars/shared/StarWarsRepositoryTest.kt

(though still running in those issues running for iOS as mentioned in other thread)

@mbonnin In the test right now I'm providing json string as mock response.....should it be possible to use following instead ?

[mbonnin]

Yep, we're working on improving the ergonomics there (see https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-kotlin/pull/3757) but it should already be possible nevertheless

[John O'Reilly]

ok, thanks....I'll take a look and see if I can use that instead

[mbonnin]

Made a small test there: https://github.com/joreilly/StarWars/pull/22/files

It could be more concise but it's working 🎉

[John O'Reilly]

nice!

[mbonnin]

I especially like that it sets __typename automatically. This is one of the things that I found confusing when creating models by hand

[John O'Reilly]

yeah, that tripped me up initially when I was trying to create that mock json
