Overview

NOTE: This feature is experimental, and missing tests!

Helps you spinning up and shutting down your own sinatra app. This is especially helpful for running real network tests against a sinatra backend.

The backend server could look like the following (in test/server.rb).

require "sinatra"

get "/" do
  "Cheers from test server"
end

get "/ping" do
  "1"
end

Note that you need to implement a ping action for internal use.

Next, you need to write your runner.

require 'sinatra/runner'

class Runner < Sinatra::Runner
  def app_file
    File.expand_path("../server.rb", __FILE__)
  end
end

Override Runner#app_file, #command, #port, #protocol and #ping_path for customization.

**Don’t forget to override #app_file specific to your application!**

Whereever you need this test backend, here’s how you manage it. The following example assumes you have a test in your app that needs to be run against your test backend.

runner = ServerRunner.new
runner.run

# ..tests against localhost:4567 here..

runner.kill
