How are people testing REST webservices that require you to POST xml
data? Are you using the post and get shortcuts in your tests, or
net::http?
With the post shortcut is there any way to specify you want to send
xml instead of regular old parameters?
I tried this in one of my controller tests for creating a thing
post :create, {:title => "cool"},
{''Content-Type'' => ''application/
xml''}
puts @request.env.to_xml
puts @response.headers.to_xml
And sadly the request env didn''t include Content-Type. It only has:
<REMOTE-ADDR>0.0.0.0</REMOTE-ADDR>
<REQUEST-URI>/events?title=cool</REQUEST-URI>
<SERVER-PORT type="integer">80</SERVER-PORT>
<REQUEST-METHOD>POST</REQUEST-METHOD>
So I''m not sure what I''m doing wrong with sending headers.
And also
I''d like to specify some xml to send instead of URL params.
According to the rdocs post takes these parameters:
path, parameters, headers
Thanks!
Andy

you can set these: @request.env[''Content-Type''] = ''application/xml'' @request.env["HTTP_ACCEPT"] = ''application/xml'' as for posting XML, I just use the to_xml methods, but it''s not as slick as I''d like it to be either. anyone else? ed On 2/12/07, Andy Triboletti <andy-kRVt9sEkMUDQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org> wrote:> > > How are people testing REST webservices that require you to POST xml > data?

Can you elaborate on how you''re using to_xml to post the data? What
do you put as the name on that value?
post :create, {"RAW_POST_DATA" => things.to_xml} , :format =>
:xml
