is ti possible to test on top of

ContractRoute

with

Path.string()

parameters? Basically, I can do:

val response = myContractRoute(request)

but when accessing

Path.string()

parameters I am getting:

Request was not routed, so no uri-template present

I tried then with what I found in https://www.http4k.org/cookbook/test_driven_apps/:

val root = routes(myContractRoute)

but it seems the

routes()

method cannot work with ContractRoute. is there a way?

You need a contract block to wrap the contract route - a simple empty one will do it - TBH am not sure if this has been changed by the recent routing changes, because I think I used to work without that. Will have to investigate..

do you want to create an issue for investigation?

I've just tried this and it seems to work fine:

@Test
    fun `test route`() {
        val route = <http://Path.int|Path.int>().of("sue") bindContract GET to { path -> { Response(OK).body(path.toString()) } }
        assertThat(route(Request(GET, "/123")), hasBody("123"))
    }

Ok, I can see the problem now – because the method is too complex, it is easier for me to use

request.path("sue")

- but path is empty within the tests.
