TestableHttpClient.NFluent

In integration tests, asserting HttpResponseMessages can be a real challenge, especially since error messages are sometimes not very clear. NFluent is known for giving clear error messages. TestableHttpClient.NFluent is designed to make it easier to check HttpResponseMessages and TestableHttpClients and give clear error messages.

For example when the following check fails:

Check.That(response).HasResponseHeader("Server");

it will return the following message:

The checked response's headers does not contain the expected header.
The checked response's headers:
    {"Connection"} (1 item)
The expected header:
    ["Server"]

Status

The TestableHttpClient.NFluent has been deprecated and is no longer being maintained. The main reason for this is that I no longer use NFluent. If someone wants to continue developing this library, please feel free to contact me.

How to install

TestableHttpClient.NFluent is released as a NuGet packages and can be installed via the NuGet manager in VisualStudio or by running the following command on the command line:

dotnet add package TestableHttpClient.NFluent

How to use

Asserting HttpResponseMessages

var client = new HttpClient();

var result = await httpClient.GetAsync("https://httpbin.org/status/200");

Check.That(result).HasStatusCode(HttpStatusCode.OK).And.HasContentHeader("Content-Type", "*/json*");

Asserting TestableHttpMessageHandler

var handler = new TestableHttpMessageHandler();
var client = new HttpClient(handler);

_ = await httpClient.GetAsync("https://httpbin.org/status/200");

Check.That(handler).HasMadeRequestsTo("https://httpbin.org*").WithHttpMethod(HttpMethod.Get);
