A better way to spec api requests.

serial-spec's Issues

New provides matcher syntax

require 'spec_helper'

RSpec.describe "index" do
  include SerialSpec

  collection_name "posts"
  resource_class Post
  resource_scope Post.all

  with_request "GET /#{collection_name}.json" do

    context 'when post exists' do
      let!(:existing_post) { resource_scope.make! }

      it "should provide the post" do
        perform_request!

        # new syntax
        expect(body[:posts].first.execute).to provide(existing_post, as: PostSerializer)
        expect(body[:posts].execute).to provide([existing_post], as: PostSerializer)

        # if type == SerialSpec::ParsedBody, call .execute, else hash
        expect(body[:posts]).to provide([existing_post], as: PostSerializer)
        expect(body[:posts]).to provide([existing_post], as: PostSerializer)    
      end
    end

  end
end

• as should be optional, when specified it forces that serializer to be used. Without it, the existing post should call as_json to perform the hash comparison to body.

with_request on nested resources/routes ignores request_path in it block
