Introduction

🪄 Dive into the world of Student CRUD Apps and see how seamlessly Keploy integrated with Flask and MongoDB. Buckle up, it's gonna be a fun ride! 🎢

🛠️ Platform-Specific Requirements for Keploy

Below is a table summarizing the tools needed for both native and Docker installations of Keploy on MacOS, Windows, and Linux:

Operating System	Without Docker	Docker Installation	Prerequisites
MacOS			Docker Desktop version must be 4.25.2 or above
Windows			- Use WSL `wsl --install` - Windows 10 version 2004 and higher (Build 19041 and higher) or Windows 11
Linux			Linux kernel 5.15 or higher

On MacOS and Windows, additional tools are required for Keploy due to the lack of native eBPF support.

Quick Installation

Let's get started by setting up the Keploy alias with this command:

 curl --silent -O -L https://keploy.io/install.sh && source install.sh

You should see something like this:

🎉 Wohoo! You are all set to use Keploy.

Get Started! 🎬

Clone a simple Student Management API 🧪

git clone https://github.com/keploy/samples-python.git && cd samples-python/flask-mongo

Installation Keploy

Depending on your OS, choose your adventure:

There are 2 ways you can run this sample application.

Using Docker compose : running application as well as Mongo on Docker container
Using Docker container for Mongo and running application locally

Using Docker Compose 🐳

We will be using Docker compose to run the application as well as Mongo on Docker container.

Lights, Camera, Record! 🎥

Capture the test-cases-

keploy record -c "docker compose up" --containerName "flask-app" --buildDelay 50

🔥Make some API calls. Postman, Hoppscotch or even curl - take your pick!

Let's make URLs short and sweet:

Generate testcases

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

Make a POST request:

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"title":"Task 1","description":"Important task"}' http://localhost:5000/api/tasks

Make a GET request:

curl http://localhost:5000/api/tasks

Make a PUT request:

curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"title":"Task 1","description":"Random task"}' http://localhost:5000/api/tasks/12345

Make a DELETE request:

curl -X DELETE http://localhost:5000/api/tasks/12345

And once you are done, you can stop the recording and 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 tests directory and mocks.yml.

Want to see if everything works as expected?

Run Tests

Time to put things to the test 🧪

keploy test -c "docker compose up" --containerName "flask-app" --buildDelay 50 --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!✨👩‍💻👨‍💻✨

Wrapping it up 🎉

Congrats on the journey so far! You've seen Keploy's power, flexed your coding muscles, and had a bit of fun too! Now, go out there and keep exploring, innovating, and creating! Remember, with the right tools and a sprinkle of fun, anything's possible. 😊🚀

Happy coding! ✨👩‍💻👨‍💻✨

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 (MongoDB) chill on Docker. Ready? Let's get the party started!🎉

Install all dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

Start the MongoDB server

sudo service mongod start

Lights, Camera, Record! 🎥

To initiate the recording of API calls, execute this command in your terminal:

keploy record -c "python3 app.py"

Now, your app will start running, and you have to make some API calls to generate the test cases!!

Make a POST request:

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"title":"Task 1","description":"Important task"}' http://localhost:5000/api/tasks

Make a GET request:

curl http://localhost:5000/api/tasks

Make a PUT request:

curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"title":"Task 1","description":"Random task"}' http://localhost:5000/api/tasks/12345

Make a DELETE request:

curl -X DELETE http://localhost:5000/api/tasks/12345

Run the tests

Now, it's time to put things to the test 🧪

keploy test -c "python3 app.py" --delay 10

Now, you can also 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!

Check Test Coverage

We have a test-app.py where all the unit test cases has been written. Now using Keploy, we can check it's code coverage!! Now to run your unit tests with Keploy, you can run the command given below:

python3 -m coverage run -p --data-file=.coverage.unit -m pytest -s test_keploy.py test_app.py

To combine the coverage from the unit tests, and Keploy's API tests we can use the command below:

python3 -m coverage combine

Finally, to generate the coverage report for the test run, you can run:

python3 -m coverage report

and if you want the coverage in an html file, you can run:

python3 -m coverage html
