Im trying to test an upload API but it fails every time:
Test Code :
$JSONResponse = $this->call('POST', '/upload', [], [], [
'photo' => new UploadedFile(base_path('public/uploads/test') . '/34610974.jpg', '34610974.jpg')
]);
$this->assertResponseOk();
$this->seeJsonStructure(['name']);
$response = json_decode($JSONResponse);
$this->assertTrue(file_exists(base_path('public/uploads') . '/' . $response['name']));
file path is /public/uploads/test/34610974.jpg
Here is My Upload code in a controller :
$this->validate($request, [
'photo' => 'bail|required|image|max:1024'
]);
$name = 'adummyname' . '.' . $request->file('photo')->getClientOriginalExtension();
$request->file('photo')->move('/uploads', $name);
return response()->json(['name' => $name]);
How should I test file upload in Laravel 5.2? How to use call
method to upload a file?
When you create an instance of UploadedFile
set the last parameter $test
to true
.
$file = new UploadedFile($path, $name, filesize($path), 'image/png', null, true);
^^^^
Here is a quick example of a working test. It expects that you have a stub test.png
file in tests/stubs
folder.
class UploadTest extends TestCase
{
public function test_upload_works()
{
$stub = __DIR__.'/stubs/test.png';
$name = str_random(8).'.png';
$path = sys_get_temp_dir().'/'.$name;
copy($stub, $path);
$file = new UploadedFile($path, $name, filesize($path), 'image/png', null, true);
$response = $this->call('POST', '/upload', [], [], ['photo' => $file], ['Accept' => 'application/json']);
$this->assertResponseOk();
$content = json_decode($response->getContent());
$this->assertObjectHasAttribute('name', $content);
$uploaded = 'uploads'.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.$content->name;
$this->assertFileExists(public_path($uploaded));
@unlink($uploaded);
}
}
