hspec-fn is a library to allow you to write tests against Fn web
applications in the context of an hspec test suite.
The basic usage is that within an hspec test suite, you can insert a
block with fn, within which all of the normal spec organization
tools work (describe, context, and it), but the content of the
actual tests should be tests in the Fn context. These tests can make
requests against your application, run arbitrary handler functions,
and assert various HTTP statuses, content of HTML pages, or just plain
unit tests. You can't mix in other types of tests within the fn
block, and you can't share values between different unit tests (a unit
test being what's inside an it), but you can have any number of
fn blocks, and can make any number of assertions within a unit
test block (from HSpec's perspective, though, it is just one test).
To get started, take a look at the test suite within the spec/
directory.
The easiest examples to look at are in the test suite in the spec/
directory.
You can run the test suite with cabal test. When the robots
last ran the suite, it:
