Is there a way to test an asynchronous API

Closed this issue 7 years ago · 2 comments

our APIs are asynchronous, meaning we create an entity, and then need to wait for it to actually become available. For example, is there a way to repeatedly hit an endpoint until it returns a 200 instead of a 404?

thanks in advance!

i suppose i am asking for the correct way to combine chakram with wait-until https://www.npmjs.com/package/wait-until

Any promise based library should be easily built into a chakram test. I found https://www.npmjs.com/package/wait-until-promise which may fit nicely with chakram
