JSON Patch Tests
|
||
|
================
|
||
|
|
||
|
These are test cases for implementations of [IETF JSON Patch (RFC6902)](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6902).
|
||
|
|
||
|
Some implementations can be found at [jsonpatch.com](http://jsonpatch.com).
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Test Format
|
||
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
||
|
Each test file is a JSON document that contains an array of test records. A
|
||
|
test record is an object with the following members:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- doc: The JSON document to test against
|
||
|
- patch: The patch(es) to apply
|
||
|
- expected: The expected resulting document, OR
|
||
|
- error: A string describing an expected error
|
||
|
- comment: A string describing the test
|
||
|
- disabled: True if the test should be skipped
|
||
|
|
||
|
All fields except 'doc' and 'patch' are optional. Test records consisting only
|
||
|
of a comment are also OK.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Files
|
||
|
-----
|
||
|
|
||
|
- tests.json: the main test file
|
||
|
- spec_tests.json: tests from the RFC6902 spec
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Writing Tests
|
||
|
-------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
All tests should have a descriptive comment. Tests should be as
|
||
|
simple as possible - just what's required to test a specific piece of
|
||
|
behavior. If you want to test interacting behaviors, create tests for
|
||
|
each behavior as well as the interaction.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If an 'error' member is specified, the error text should describe the
|
||
|
error the implementation should raise - *not* what's being tested.
|
||
|
Implementation error strings will vary, but the suggested error should
|
||
|
be easily matched to the implementation error string. Try to avoid
|
||
|
creating error tests that might pass because an incorrect error was
|
||
|
reported.
