An assertion library for use with CDK Apps
Project description
Assertions
---The APIs of higher level constructs in this module are experimental and under active development. They are subject to non-backward compatible changes or removal in any future version. These are not subject to the Semantic Versioning model and breaking changes will be announced in the release notes. This means that while you may use them, you may need to update your source code when upgrading to a newer version of this package.
Functions for writing test asserting against CDK applications, with focus on CloudFormation templates.
The Template
class includes a set of methods for writing assertions against CloudFormation templates. Use one of the Template.fromXxx()
static methods to create an instance of this class.
To create Template
from CDK stack, start off with:
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
from aws_cdk.core import Stack
from aws_cdk.assertions import Template
stack = Stack()
# ...
template = Template.from_stack(stack)
Alternatively, assertions can be run on an existing CloudFormation template -
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
template_json = "{ \"Resources\": ... }"# The CloudFormation template as JSON serialized string.
template = Template.from_string(template_json)
Full Template Match
The simplest assertion would be to assert that the template matches a given template.
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
expected = {
"Resources": {
"Type": "Foo::Bar",
"Properties": {
"Baz": "Qux"
}
}
}
template.template_matches(expected)
By default, the templateMatches()
API will use the an 'object-like' comparison,
which means that it will allow for the actual template to be a superset of the
given expectation. See Special Matchers for details on how
to change this.
Snapshot testing is a common technique to store a snapshot of the output and compare it during future changes. Since CloudFormation templates are human readable, they are a good target for åßsnapshot testing.
The toJSON()
method on the Template
can be used to produce a well formatted JSON
of the CloudFormation template that can be used as a snapshot.
See Snapshot Testing in Jest and Snapshot Testing in Java.
Counting Resources
This module allows asserting the number of resources of a specific type found in a template.
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
template.resource_count_is("Foo::Bar", 2)
Resource Matching & Retrieval
Beyond resource counting, the module also allows asserting that a resource with specific properties are present.
The following code asserts that the Properties
section of a resource of type
Foo::Bar
contains the specified properties -
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
expected = {
"Foo": "Bar",
"Baz": 5,
"Qux": ["Waldo", "Fred"]
}
template.has_resource_properties("Foo::Bar", expected)
Alternatively, if you would like to assert the entire resource definition, you
can use the hasResource()
API.
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
expected = {
"Properties": {"Foo": "Bar"},
"DependsOn": ["Waldo", "Fred"]
}
template.has_resource("Foo::Bar", expected)
Beyond assertions, the module provides APIs to retrieve matching resources.
The findResources()
API is complementary to the hasResource()
API, except,
instead of asserting its presence, it returns the set of matching resources.
By default, the hasResource()
and hasResourceProperties()
APIs perform deep
partial object matching. This behavior can be configured using matchers.
See subsequent section on special matchers.
Output and Mapping sections
The module allows you to assert that the CloudFormation template contains an Output
that matches specific properties. The following code asserts that a template contains
an Output with a logicalId
of Foo
and the specified properties -
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
expected = {
"Value": "Bar",
"Export": {"Name": "ExportBaz"}
}
template.has_output("Foo", expected)
If you want to match against all Outputs in the template, use *
as the logicalId
.
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
expected = {
"Value": "Bar",
"Export": {"Name": "ExportBaz"}
}
template.has_output("*", expected)
findOutputs()
will return a set of outputs that match the logicalId
and props
,
and you can use the '*'
special case as well.
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
expected = {
"Value": "Fred"
}
result = template.find_outputs("*", expected)
expect(result.Foo).to_equal({"Value": "Fred", "Description": "FooFred"})
expect(result.Bar).to_equal({"Value": "Fred", "Description": "BarFred"})
The APIs hasMapping()
and findMappings()
provide similar functionalities.
Special Matchers
The expectation provided to the hasXxx()
, findXxx()
and templateMatches()
APIs, besides carrying literal values, as seen in the above examples, also accept
special matchers.
They are available as part of the Match
class.
Object Matchers
The Match.objectLike()
API can be used to assert that the target is a superset
object of the provided pattern.
This API will perform a deep partial match on the target.
Deep partial matching is where objects are matched partially recursively. At each
level, the list of keys in the target is a subset of the provided pattern.
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
# Given a template -
# {
# "Resources": {
# "MyBar": {
# "Type": "Foo::Bar",
# "Properties": {
# "Fred": {
# "Wobble": "Flob",
# "Bob": "Cat"
# }
# }
# }
# }
# }
# The following will NOT throw an assertion error
expected = {
"Fred": Match.object_like({
"Wobble": "Flob"
})
}
template.has_resource_properties("Foo::Bar", expected)
# The following will throw an assertion error
unexpected = {
"Fred": Match.object_like({
"Brew": "Coffee"
})
}
template.has_resource_properties("Foo::Bar", unexpected)
The Match.objectEquals()
API can be used to assert a target as a deep exact
match.
Presence and Absence
The Match.absent()
matcher can be used to specify that a specific
value should not exist on the target. This can be used within Match.objectLike()
or outside of any matchers.
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
# Given a template -
# {
# "Resources": {
# "MyBar": {
# "Type": "Foo::Bar",
# "Properties": {
# "Fred": {
# "Wobble": "Flob",
# }
# }
# }
# }
# }
# The following will NOT throw an assertion error
expected = {
"Fred": Match.object_like({
"Bob": Match.absent()
})
}
template.has_resource_properties("Foo::Bar", expected)
# The following will throw an assertion error
unexpected = {
"Fred": Match.object_like({
"Wobble": Match.absent()
})
}
template.has_resource_properties("Foo::Bar", unexpected)
The Match.anyValue()
matcher can be used to specify that a specific value should be found
at the location. This matcher will fail if when the target location has null-ish values
(i.e., null
or undefined
).
This matcher can be combined with any of the other matchers.
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
# Given a template -
# {
# "Resources": {
# "MyBar": {
# "Type": "Foo::Bar",
# "Properties": {
# "Fred": {
# "Wobble": ["Flob", "Flib"],
# }
# }
# }
# }
# }
# The following will NOT throw an assertion error
expected = {
"Fred": {
"Wobble": [Match.any_value(), "Flip"]
}
}
template.has_resource_properties("Foo::Bar", expected)
# The following will throw an assertion error
unexpected = {
"Fred": {
"Wimble": Match.any_value()
}
}
template.has_resource_properties("Foo::Bar", unexpected)
Array Matchers
The Match.arrayWith()
API can be used to assert that the target is equal to or a subset
of the provided pattern array.
This API will perform subset match on the target.
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
# Given a template -
# {
# "Resources": {
# "MyBar": {
# "Type": "Foo::Bar",
# "Properties": {
# "Fred": ["Flob", "Cat"]
# }
# }
# }
# }
# The following will NOT throw an assertion error
expected = {
"Fred": Match.array_with(["Flob"])
}
template.has_resource_properties("Foo::Bar", expected)
# The following will throw an assertion error
unexpected = Match.object_like({
"Fred": Match.array_with(["Wobble"])
})
template.has_resource_properties("Foo::Bar", unexpected)
Note: The list of items in the pattern array should be in order as they appear in the target array. Out of order will be recorded as a match failure.
Alternatively, the Match.arrayEquals()
API can be used to assert that the target is
exactly equal to the pattern array.
Not Matcher
The not matcher inverts the search pattern and matches all patterns in the path that does not match the pattern specified.
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
# Given a template -
# {
# "Resources": {
# "MyBar": {
# "Type": "Foo::Bar",
# "Properties": {
# "Fred": ["Flob", "Cat"]
# }
# }
# }
# }
# The following will NOT throw an assertion error
expected = {
"Fred": Match.not(["Flob"])
}
template.has_resource_properties("Foo::Bar", expected)
# The following will throw an assertion error
unexpected = Match.object_like({
"Fred": Match.not(["Flob", "Cat"])
})
template.has_resource_properties("Foo::Bar", unexpected)
Serialized JSON
Often, we find that some CloudFormation Resource types declare properties as a string,
but actually expect JSON serialized as a string.
For example, the BuildSpec
property of AWS::CodeBuild::Project
,
the Definition
property of AWS::StepFunctions::StateMachine
,
to name a couple.
The Match.serializedJson()
matcher allows deep matching within a stringified JSON.
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
# Given a template -
# {
# "Resources": {
# "MyBar": {
# "Type": "Foo::Bar",
# "Properties": {
# "Baz": "{ \"Fred\": [\"Waldo\", \"Willow\"] }"
# }
# }
# }
# }
# The following will NOT throw an assertion error
expected = {
"Baz": Match.serialized_json({
"Fred": Match.array_with(["Waldo"])
})
}
template.has_resource_properties("Foo::Bar", expected)
# The following will throw an assertion error
unexpected = {
"Baz": Match.serialized_json({
"Fred": ["Waldo", "Johnny"]
})
}
template.has_resource_properties("Foo::Bar", unexpected)
Capturing Values
This matcher APIs documented above allow capturing values in the matching entry (Resource, Output, Mapping, etc.). The following code captures a string from a matching resource.
# Example automatically generated. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
# Given a template -
# {
# "Resources": {
# "MyBar": {
# "Type": "Foo::Bar",
# "Properties": {
# "Fred": ["Flob", "Cat"],
# "Waldo": ["Qix", "Qux"],
# }
# }
# }
# }
fred_capture = Capture()
waldo_capture = Capture()
expected = {
"Fred": fred_capture,
"Waldo": ["Qix", waldo_capture]
}
template.has_resource_properties("Foo::Bar", expected)
fred_capture.as_array()# returns ["Flob", "Cat"]
waldo_capture.as_string()
