Chapter 47: Testing Your App in C++
Unit tests, integration tests, fuzz testing. In this chapter, you will learn testing your app in depth with C++ code examples, explanations, and best practices.
Overview
This chapter covers testing your app for Kungfu.js developers using C++. We will start with the basics, move through practical examples, and end with advanced techniques and common pitfalls.
Why This Matters
Understanding testing your app is essential because it is a core part of building web applications. Every real-world app needs to handle unit tests, integration tests, fuzz testing. Skipping this chapter would leave a gap in your knowledge that would cause problems later.
Code Example
Here is how to handle this in C++:
// Unit test example
#[test]
fn test_router() {
let mut router = Router::new();
router.get("/hello", handler).unwrap();
match router.resolve(Method::Get, "/hello") {
RouteResolution::Found { .. } => {},
_ => panic!("expected Found"),
}
}
// Integration test
#[tokio::test]
async fn test_server() {
let resp = reqwest::get("http://localhost:3000/hello").await?;
assert_eq!(resp.status(), 200);
}
Common Mistakes
- Not reading the documentation: Always check the API reference when something does not work as expected.
- Skipping security: Never disable the default middleware unless you have a very good reason. Security is not optional.
- Not testing: Write tests for your handlers. Kungfu.js makes this easy with the built-in test utilities.
Summary
In this chapter, you learned about testing your app in C++. You saw code examples, understood how things work under the hood, and learned about common mistakes to avoid.
What is Next?
In chapter 48, we will cover Performance Tuning: io_uring, SIMD JSON, buffer pooling.
