=== API Authentication === | === API Authentication === | ||
File <code>tests/auth.setup.ts</code> change to use API and save to file <code>.auth\user.json</code> env variable <code>ACCESS_TOKEN</code> | |||
<nowiki> | |||
setup("authentication", async ({ request }) => { | |||
const response = await request.post( | |||
"https://conduit-api.bondaracademy.com/api/users/login", | |||
{ | |||
data: { | |||
user: { | |||
email: "conduit@dirksonline.net", | |||
password: "qB85R86#ZMKME$jVEVq#vJMDr*A!cJk", | |||
}, | |||
}, | |||
} | |||
) | |||
const responseBody = await response.json() | |||
const accessToken = responseBody.user.token | |||
user.origins[0].localStorage[0].value = accessToken | |||
fs.writeFileSync(authfile, JSON.stringify(user)) | |||
process.env['ACCESS_TOKEN'] = accessToken</nowiki> | |||
File <code>tests/workingWithAPI.spec.ts</code> remove all code for obtaining access token, and for specifying the access token header | |||
File <code>playwright.config.ts</code> add <code>extraHTTPHeaders</code> node | |||
<nowiki> | |||
export default defineConfig({ | |||
... | |||
use: { | |||
... | |||
extraHTTPHeaders: { | |||
'Authorization': `Token ${process.env.ACCESS_TOKEN}` | |||
}</nowiki> | |||
Notes: | |||
* tried playwright@1.44.1 which still gives issues with the setup settings/file etc. continued using 1.43.0 | |||
* This relies on <code>.auth\user.json</code> existing with the correct format, but it is in .gitignore so a clean clone of repo will not work | |||
* I do like how this now removes a lot of boiler code from test cases. | |||
* I wonder, given that the auth header is now always included via the env variable, is the <code>.auth\user.json</code> still needed? (Might also need removing storageState values from the <code>playwright.config.ts</code> | |||
