do I need to write a test for the below code?
@Post()
update(@Body() updateUserDto: UpdateUserDto, @Request() req) {
return this.userService.update(req.user.user, updateUserDto);
}
I'm going to make some assumptions about injected properties of the controller class. For full setups, you can view my testing example repo here. This should be essentially what you're looking for though
describe('UserController (Unit)', () => {
let controller: UserController;
let service: MockedClass<UserService>;
beforeAll(async () => {
const modRef = await Test.createTestingModule({
controllers: [UserController],
providers: [
{
provide: UserService,
useValue: {
update: jest.fn().mockReturnValue({ hello: 'world' }),
},
}
],
}).compile();
controller = modRef.get(UserController);
service = modRef.get(UserService);
});
it('should call update and return the value', () => {
const bodyVal = objectThatMatchesUpdateUserDto;
const reqVal = {
user: {
user: valueThatMatchesReqUserUser
}
};
const res = controller.update(bodyVal, reqVal);
expect(res).toEqual({ hello: 'world' });
expect(service.update).toBeCalledWith(reqVal.user.user, bodyVal)
});
});
