@fedify/testing

Testing utilities for Fedify applications.

This package provides mock implementations of the Federation and Context interfaces to facilitate unit testing of federated applications built with Fedify.

Installation

deno add @fedify/testing

npm install @fedify/testing

pnpm add @fedify/testing

yarn add @fedify/testing

Usage

MockFederation

The MockFederation class provides a mock implementation of the Federation interface for unit testing:

import { MockFederation } from "@fedify/testing";
import { Create } from "@fedify/vocab";

// Create a mock federation
const federation = new MockFederation<{ userId: string }>();

// Set up inbox listeners
federation
  .setInboxListeners("/users/{identifier}/inbox")
  .on(Create, async (ctx, activity) => {
    console.log("Received:", activity);
  });

// Simulate receiving an activity
await federation.receiveActivity(createActivity);

// Check sent activities
const sent = federation.sentActivities;
console.log(sent[0].activity);

MockContext

The MockContext class provides a mock implementation of the Context interface:

import { MockContext } from "@fedify/testing";

// Create a mock context
const context = new MockContext({
  url: new URL("https://example.com"),
  data: { userId: "test-user" },
  federation: mockFederation
});

// Send an activity
await context.sendActivity(
  { identifier: "alice" },
  recipient,
  activity
);

// Check sent activities
const sent = context.getSentActivities();
console.log(sent[0].activity);

Helper functions

The package also exports helper functions for creating various context types:

• createContext(): Creates a basic context
• createRequestContext(): Creates a request context
• createInboxContext(): Creates an inbox context

Features

• Track sent activities with metadata
• Simulate activity reception
• Configure custom URI templates
• Test queue-based activity processing
• Mock document loaders and context loaders
