Get Started! 🎬

Clone a sample user authentication app 🧪

git clone https://github.com/keploy/samples-csharp.git && cd samples-csharp

# start the database instance
docker-compose up

Installation 📥

Running App Locally on Linux/WSL 🐧

We'll be running our sample application right on Linux, but just to make things a tad more thrilling, we'll have the database (Redis) chill on Docker. Ready? Let's get the party started!🎉

📼 Roll the Tape - Recording Time!

We need to run the migration command before starting our application:

dotnet ef migrations add InitialMigration
dotnet ef database update

Ready, set, record! Here's how:

keploy record -c "dotnet run"

Alright, magician! With the app alive and kicking, let's weave some test cases. The spell? Making some API calls! Postman, Hoppscotch, or the classic curl - pick your wand.

Generate testcases

To generate testcases we just need to make some API calls.

1. Create User

curl -k -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"name":"Sarthak Shnygle","age":23}' http://localhost:5249/api/user

This will return the response:

{
"id": 1,
"name": "Sarthak Shnygle",
"age": 23
}

2. Get the User

curl -k http://localhost:5249/api/user

This will return the OTP verification response:

[
{
"id": 1,
"name": "Sarthak Shnygle",
"age": 23
}
]

Give yourself a pat on the back! With that simple spell, you've conjured up a test case with a mock! Explore the Keploy directory and you'll discover your handiwork in test-1.yml and mocks.yml.

Want to see if everything works as expected?

Run Tests

Time to put things to the test 🧪

keploy test -c "dotnet run" --delay 10

The --delay flag? Oh, that's just giving your app a little breather (in seconds) before the test cases come knocking.

Final thoughts? Dive deeper! Try different API calls, tweak the DB response in the mocks.yml, or fiddle with the request or response in test-x.yml. Run the tests again and see the magic unfold!✨👩‍💻👨‍💻✨
