我有一些问题,试图包装我的代码在单元测试中使用。问题在于。我有接口IHttpHandler:

public interface IHttpHandler
{
    HttpClient client { get; }
}

使用它的类HttpHandler:

public class HttpHandler : IHttpHandler
{
    public HttpClient client
    {
        get
        {
            return new HttpClient();
        }
    }
}

然后是Connection类,它使用simpleIOC注入客户端实现:

public class Connection
{
    private IHttpHandler _httpClient;

    public Connection(IHttpHandler httpClient)
    {
        _httpClient = httpClient;
    }
}

然后我有一个单元测试项目,它有这个类:

private IHttpHandler _httpClient;

[TestMethod]
public void TestMockConnection()
{
    var client = new Connection(_httpClient);
     
    client.doSomething();  

    // Here I want to somehow create a mock instance of the http client
    // Instead of the real one. How Should I approach this?     

}

现在很明显,我将在Connection类中拥有从后端检索数据(JSON)的方法。但是,我想为这个类编写单元测试,显然我不想针对真正的后端编写测试,而是一个模拟的后端。我试着给这个问题一个好的答案,但没有成功。我以前可以用Moq来模拟,但从来没有在HttpClient这样的东西上使用过。我应该如何处理这个问题?


当前回答

很多答案我都不相信。

首先,假设您想要对一个使用HttpClient的方法进行单元测试。您不应该在实现中直接实例化HttpClient。您应该注入一个负责为您提供HttpClient实例的工厂。这样你以后就可以模拟那个工厂并返回任何你想要的HttpClient(例如:一个模拟HttpClient而不是真正的HttpClient)。

所以,你会有一个这样的工厂:

public interface IHttpClientFactory
{
    HttpClient Create();
}

和一个实现:

public class HttpClientFactory
    : IHttpClientFactory
{
    public HttpClient Create()
    {
        var httpClient = new HttpClient();
        return httpClient;
    }
}

当然,你需要在你的IoC容器中注册这个实现。如果你使用Autofac,它会是这样的:

builder
    .RegisterType<IHttpClientFactory>()
    .As<HttpClientFactory>()
    .SingleInstance();

现在您将拥有一个适当的、可测试的实现。假设你的方法是这样的:

public class MyHttpClient
    : IMyHttpClient
{
    private readonly IHttpClientFactory _httpClientFactory;

    public SalesOrderHttpClient(IHttpClientFactory httpClientFactory)
    {
        _httpClientFactory = httpClientFactory;
    }

    public async Task<string> PostAsync(Uri uri, string content)
    {
        using (var client = _httpClientFactory.Create())
        {
            var clientAddress = uri.GetLeftPart(UriPartial.Authority);
            client.BaseAddress = new Uri(clientAddress);
            var content = new StringContent(content, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");
            var uriAbsolutePath = uri.AbsolutePath;
            var response = await client.PostAsync(uriAbsolutePath, content);
            var responseJson = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
            return responseJson;
        }
    }
}

现在是测试部分。HttpClient扩展了抽象的HttpMessageHandler。让我们创建一个接受委托的HttpMessageHandler的“模拟”,这样当我们使用模拟时,我们也可以为每个测试设置每个行为。

public class MockHttpMessageHandler 
    : HttpMessageHandler
{
    private readonly Func<HttpRequestMessage, CancellationToken, Task<HttpResponseMessage>> _sendAsyncFunc;

    public MockHttpMessageHandler(Func<HttpRequestMessage, CancellationToken, Task<HttpResponseMessage>> sendAsyncFunc)
    {
        _sendAsyncFunc = sendAsyncFunc;
    }

    protected override async Task<HttpResponseMessage> SendAsync(HttpRequestMessage request, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        return await _sendAsyncFunc.Invoke(request, cancellationToken);
    }
}

现在,在Moq(以及FluentAssertions,一个使单元测试更具可读性的库)的帮助下,我们拥有了对使用HttpClient的方法PostAsync进行单元测试所需的一切

public static class PostAsyncTests
{
    public class Given_A_Uri_And_A_JsonMessage_When_Posting_Async
        : Given_WhenAsync_Then_Test
    {
        private SalesOrderHttpClient _sut;
        private Uri _uri;
        private string _content;
        private string _expectedResult;
        private string _result;

        protected override void Given()
        {
            _uri = new Uri("http://test.com/api/resources");
            _content = "{\"foo\": \"bar\"}";
            _expectedResult = "{\"result\": \"ok\"}";

            var httpClientFactoryMock = new Mock<IHttpClientFactory>();
            var messageHandlerMock =
                new MockHttpMessageHandler((request, cancellation) =>
                {
                    var responseMessage =
                        new HttpResponseMessage(HttpStatusCode.Created)
                        {
                            Content = new StringContent("{\"result\": \"ok\"}")
                        };

                    var result = Task.FromResult(responseMessage);
                    return result;
                });

            var httpClient = new HttpClient(messageHandlerMock);
            httpClientFactoryMock
                .Setup(x => x.Create())
                .Returns(httpClient);

            var httpClientFactory = httpClientFactoryMock.Object;

            _sut = new SalesOrderHttpClient(httpClientFactory);
        }

        protected override async Task WhenAsync()
        {
            _result = await _sut.PostAsync(_uri, _content);
        }


        [Fact]
        public void Then_It_Should_Return_A_Valid_JsonMessage()
        {
            _result.Should().BeEquivalentTo(_expectedResult);
        }
    }
}

显然这个测试很愚蠢,我们实际上是在测试我们的mock。但你懂的。您应该根据您的实现测试有意义的逻辑,例如..

如果响应的代码状态不是201,它是否应该抛出异常? 如果不能解析响应文本,应该发生什么? 等。

这个回答的目的是测试一些使用HttpClient的东西,这是一种很好的干净的方法。


更新 最近,我在测试中使用了一个http构建器,在那里我可以轻松地注入我所期望的json响应。

public class HttpClientBuilder
{
    private HttpMessageHandler _httpMessageHandler = new HttpClientHandler();
    
    public HttpClientBuilder WithJsonResponse(HttpStatusCode httpStatusCode, string json, string contentType = "application/json")
    {
        var mockHttpMessageHandler =
            new MockHttpMessageHandler(
                (request, cancellation) =>
                {
                    var responseMessage =
                        new HttpResponseMessage(httpStatusCode)
                        {
                            Content = new StringContent(json, Encoding.UTF8, contentType)
                        };
                    var result = Task.FromResult(responseMessage);
                    return result;
                });
        _httpMessageHandler = mockHttpMessageHandler;
        return this;
    }

    public HttpClient Build()
    {
        var httpClient = new HttpClient(_httpMessageHandler);
        return httpClient;
    }
}

class MockHttpMessageHandler 
    : HttpMessageHandler
{
    private readonly Func<HttpRequestMessage, CancellationToken, Task<HttpResponseMessage>> _sendAsyncFunc;

    public MockHttpMessageHandler(Func<HttpRequestMessage, CancellationToken, Task<HttpResponseMessage>> sendAsyncFunc)
    {
        _sendAsyncFunc = sendAsyncFunc;
    }

    protected override async Task<HttpResponseMessage> SendAsync(HttpRequestMessage request, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        return await _sendAsyncFunc.Invoke(request, cancellationToken);
    }
}

因此,只要我有一个抽象的HttpClient,比如IHttpClientFactory,就像我上面建议的那样,在我的测试中,我可以做一些这样的事情

var httpClientFactoryMock = new Mock<IHttpClientFactory>();
var jsonResponse = "{\"hello world\"}";
var httpClient = 
  new HttpClientBuilder()
    .WithJsonResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK, jsonResponse)
    .Build();
                
httpClientFactoryMock
  .Setup(x => x.Create())
  .Returns(httpClient);
var httpClientFactory = httpClientFactoryMock.Object;

然后使用httpClientFactory。

其他回答

您的接口公开了具体的HttpClient类,因此任何使用该接口的类都被绑定到它,这意味着它不能被模拟。

HttpClient不继承任何接口,所以你必须自己编写。我建议使用类似装饰器的图案:

public interface IHttpHandler
{
    HttpResponseMessage Get(string url);
    HttpResponseMessage Post(string url, HttpContent content);
    Task<HttpResponseMessage> GetAsync(string url);
    Task<HttpResponseMessage> PostAsync(string url, HttpContent content);
}

你的类看起来是这样的:

public class HttpClientHandler : IHttpHandler
{
    private HttpClient _client = new HttpClient();

    public HttpResponseMessage Get(string url)
    {
        return GetAsync(url).Result;
    }

    public HttpResponseMessage Post(string url, HttpContent content)
    {
        return PostAsync(url, content).Result;
    }

    public async Task<HttpResponseMessage> GetAsync(string url)
    {
        return await _client.GetAsync(url);
    }

    public async Task<HttpResponseMessage> PostAsync(string url, HttpContent content)
    {
        return await _client.PostAsync(url, content);
    }
}

所有这些的重点是HttpClientHandler创建了它自己的HttpClient,然后你当然可以创建多个以不同方式实现IHttpHandler的类。

这种方法的主要问题是,你实际上是在编写一个只调用另一个类中的方法的类,然而你可以创建一个从HttpClient继承的类(参见Nkosi的例子,这是一个比我的方法更好的方法)。如果HttpClient有一个可以模拟的接口,事情会简单得多,不幸的是它没有。

This example is not the golden ticket however. IHttpHandler still relies on HttpResponseMessage, which belongs to System.Net.Http namespace, therefore if you do need other implementations other than HttpClient, you will have to perform some kind of mapping to convert their responses into HttpResponseMessage objects. This of course is only a problem if you need to use multiple implementations of IHttpHandler but it doesn't look like you do so it's not the end of the world, but it's something to think about.

无论如何,您可以简单地模拟IHttpHandler,而不必担心具体的HttpClient类,因为它已经被抽象掉了。

我建议测试非异步方法,因为这些方法仍然调用异步方法,但不必担心单元测试异步方法的麻烦,参见这里

正如注释中提到的,您需要抽象HttpClient,这样就不会与它耦合。我以前也做过类似的事情。我会试着把我的方法和你们要做的方法相适应。

首先看一下HttpClient类,并决定需要它提供哪些功能。

以下是一种可能性:

public interface IHttpClient {
    System.Threading.Tasks.Task<T> DeleteAsync<T>(string uri) where T : class;
    System.Threading.Tasks.Task<T> DeleteAsync<T>(Uri uri) where T : class;
    System.Threading.Tasks.Task<T> GetAsync<T>(string uri) where T : class;
    System.Threading.Tasks.Task<T> GetAsync<T>(Uri uri) where T : class;
    System.Threading.Tasks.Task<T> PostAsync<T>(string uri, object package);
    System.Threading.Tasks.Task<T> PostAsync<T>(Uri uri, object package);
    System.Threading.Tasks.Task<T> PutAsync<T>(string uri, object package);
    System.Threading.Tasks.Task<T> PutAsync<T>(Uri uri, object package);
}

如前所述,这是为了特定目的。我完全抽象出了对HttpClient的依赖,并专注于我想要返回的东西。您应该评估如何抽象HttpClient以只提供您想要的必要功能。

这将允许您只模拟需要测试的内容。

我甚至建议完全放弃IHttpHandler,而使用HttpClient抽象IHttpClient。但我只是没有选择,因为你可以用抽象客户端的成员替换你的处理程序接口的主体。

IHttpClient的实现可以用来包装/改编一个真正的/具体的HttpClient或任何其他对象,它可以用来发出HTTP请求,因为你真正想要的是一个服务,它提供了与HttpClient相反的功能。使用抽象是一种干净(我的观点)和可靠的方法,并且可以使您的代码更易于维护,如果您需要在框架更改时将底层客户端切换为其他东西。

下面是如何实现的代码片段。

/// <summary>
/// HTTP Client adaptor wraps a <see cref="System.Net.Http.HttpClient"/> 
/// that contains a reference to <see cref="ConfigurableMessageHandler"/>
/// </summary>
public sealed class HttpClientAdaptor : IHttpClient {
    HttpClient httpClient;

    public HttpClientAdaptor(IHttpClientFactory httpClientFactory) {
        httpClient = httpClientFactory.CreateHttpClient(**Custom configurations**);
    }

    //...other code

     /// <summary>
    ///  Send a GET request to the specified Uri as an asynchronous operation.
    /// </summary>
    /// <typeparam name="T">Response type</typeparam>
    /// <param name="uri">The Uri the request is sent to</param>
    /// <returns></returns>
    public async System.Threading.Tasks.Task<T> GetAsync<T>(Uri uri) where T : class {
        var result = default(T);
        //Try to get content as T
        try {
            //send request and get the response
            var response = await httpClient.GetAsync(uri).ConfigureAwait(false);
            //if there is content in response to deserialize
            if (response.Content.Headers.ContentLength.GetValueOrDefault() > 0) {
                //get the content
                string responseBodyAsText = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().ConfigureAwait(false);
                //desrialize it
                result = deserializeJsonToObject<T>(responseBodyAsText);
            }
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            Log.Error(ex);
        }
        return result;
    }

    //...other code
}

正如你在上面的例子中所看到的,很多通常与使用HttpClient相关的繁重工作都隐藏在抽象后面。

然后可以用抽象客户端注入连接类

public class Connection
{
    private IHttpClient _httpClient;

    public Connection(IHttpClient httpClient)
    {
        _httpClient = httpClient;
    }
}

然后,您的测试可以模拟SUT所需的内容

private IHttpClient _httpClient;

[TestMethod]
public void TestMockConnection()
{
    SomeModelObject model = new SomeModelObject();
    var httpClientMock = new Mock<IHttpClient>();
    httpClientMock.Setup(c => c.GetAsync<SomeModelObject>(It.IsAny<string>()))
        .Returns(() => Task.FromResult(model));

    _httpClient = httpClientMock.Object;

    var client = new Connection(_httpClient);

    // Assuming doSomething uses the client to make
    // a request for a model of type SomeModelObject
    client.doSomething();  
}

因为HttpClient使用SendAsync方法来执行所有的HTTP请求,你可以重写SendAsync方法并模拟HttpClient。

对于将HttpClient创建到接口的封装,如下所示

public interface IServiceHelper
{
    HttpClient GetClient();
}

然后在您的服务中使用上述接口进行依赖注入,示例如下

public class SampleService
{
    private readonly IServiceHelper serviceHelper;

    public SampleService(IServiceHelper serviceHelper)
    {
        this.serviceHelper = serviceHelper;
    }

    public async Task<HttpResponseMessage> Get(int dummyParam)
    {
        try
        {
            var dummyUrl = "http://www.dummyurl.com/api/controller/" + dummyParam;
            var client = serviceHelper.GetClient();
            HttpResponseMessage response = await client.GetAsync(dummyUrl);               

            return response;
        }
        catch (Exception)
        {
            // log.
            throw;
        }
    }
}

Now in unit test project create a helper class for mocking SendAsync. Here it is a FakeHttpResponseHandler class which is inheriting DelegatingHandler which will provide an option to override the SendAsync method. After overriding the SendAsync method need to setup a response for each HTTP Request which is calling SendAsync method, for that create a Dictionary with key as Uri and value as HttpResponseMessage so that whenever there is a HTTP Request and if the Uri matches SendAsync will return the configured HttpResponseMessage.

public class FakeHttpResponseHandler : DelegatingHandler
{
    private readonly IDictionary<Uri, HttpResponseMessage> fakeServiceResponse;
    private readonly JavaScriptSerializer javaScriptSerializer;
    public FakeHttpResponseHandler()
    {
        fakeServiceResponse =  new Dictionary<Uri, HttpResponseMessage>();
        javaScriptSerializer =  new JavaScriptSerializer();
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Used for adding fake httpResponseMessage for the httpClient operation.
    /// </summary>
    /// <typeparam name="TQueryStringParameter"> query string parameter </typeparam>
    /// <param name="uri">Service end point URL.</param>
    /// <param name="httpResponseMessage"> Response expected when the service called.</param>
    public void AddFakeServiceResponse(Uri uri, HttpResponseMessage httpResponseMessage)
    {
        fakeServiceResponse.Remove(uri);
        fakeServiceResponse.Add(uri, httpResponseMessage);
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Used for adding fake httpResponseMessage for the httpClient operation having query string parameter.
    /// </summary>
    /// <typeparam name="TQueryStringParameter"> query string parameter </typeparam>
    /// <param name="uri">Service end point URL.</param>
    /// <param name="httpResponseMessage"> Response expected when the service called.</param>
    /// <param name="requestParameter">Query string parameter.</param>
    public void AddFakeServiceResponse<TQueryStringParameter>(Uri uri, HttpResponseMessage httpResponseMessage, TQueryStringParameter requestParameter)
    {
        var serilizedQueryStringParameter = javaScriptSerializer.Serialize(requestParameter);
        var actualUri = new Uri(string.Concat(uri, serilizedQueryStringParameter));
        fakeServiceResponse.Remove(actualUri);
        fakeServiceResponse.Add(actualUri, httpResponseMessage);
    }

    // all method in HttpClient call use SendAsync method internally so we are overriding that method here.
    protected override Task<HttpResponseMessage> SendAsync(HttpRequestMessage request, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        if(fakeServiceResponse.ContainsKey(request.RequestUri))
        {
            return Task.FromResult(fakeServiceResponse[request.RequestUri]);
        }

        return Task.FromResult(new HttpResponseMessage(HttpStatusCode.NotFound)
        {
            RequestMessage = request,
            Content = new StringContent("Not matching fake found")
        });
    }
}

通过模仿框架或如下所示创建IServiceHelper的新实现。 我们可以使用这个FakeServiceHelper类来注入FakeHttpResponseHandler类,这样每当这个类创建HttpClient时,它都会使用FakeHttpResponseHandler类而不是实际的实现。

public class FakeServiceHelper : IServiceHelper
{
    private readonly DelegatingHandler delegatingHandler;

    public FakeServiceHelper(DelegatingHandler delegatingHandler)
    {
        this.delegatingHandler = delegatingHandler;
    }

    public HttpClient GetClient()
    {
        return new HttpClient(delegatingHandler);
    }
}

And in test configure FakeHttpResponseHandler class by adding the Uri and expected HttpResponseMessage. The Uri should be the actual serviceendpoint Uri so that when the overridden SendAsync method is called from actual service implementation it will match the Uri in Dictionary and respond with the configured HttpResponseMessage. After configuring inject the FakeHttpResponseHandler object to the fake IServiceHelper implementation. Then inject the FakeServiceHelper class to the actual service which will make the actual service to use the override SendAsync method.

[TestClass]
public class SampleServiceTest
{
    private FakeHttpResponseHandler fakeHttpResponseHandler;

    [TestInitialize]
    public void Initialize()
    {
        fakeHttpResponseHandler = new FakeHttpResponseHandler();
    }

    [TestMethod]
    public async Task GetMethodShouldReturnFakeResponse()
    {
        Uri uri = new Uri("http://www.dummyurl.com/api/controller/");
        const int dummyParam = 123456;
        const string expectdBody = "Expected Response";

        var expectedHttpResponseMessage = new HttpResponseMessage(HttpStatusCode.OK)
        {
            Content = new StringContent(expectdBody)
        };

        fakeHttpResponseHandler.AddFakeServiceResponse(uri, expectedHttpResponseMessage, dummyParam);

        var fakeServiceHelper = new FakeServiceHelper(fakeHttpResponseHandler);

        var sut = new SampleService(fakeServiceHelper);

        var response = await sut.Get(dummyParam);

        var responseBody = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();

        Assert.AreEqual(HttpStatusCode.OK, response.StatusCode);
        Assert.AreEqual(expectdBody, responseBody);
    }
}

GitHub链接:有示例实现

补充一下我的意见。模拟特定的http请求方法Get或Post。这对我很管用。

mockHttpMessageHandler.Protected().Setup<Task<HttpResponseMessage>>("SendAsync", ItExpr.Is<HttpRequestMessage>(a => a.Method == HttpMethod.Get), ItExpr.IsAny<CancellationToken>())
                                                .Returns(Task.FromResult(new HttpResponseMessage()
                                                {
                                                    StatusCode = HttpStatusCode.OK,
                                                    Content = new StringContent(""),
                                                })).Verifiable();

HttpClient的可扩展性在于传递给构造函数的HttpMessageHandler。它的目的是允许特定于平台的实现,但您也可以模拟它。不需要为HttpClient创建装饰器包装。

如果你更喜欢DSL而不是使用Moq,我在GitHub/Nuget上有一个库,它可以让事情变得更容易一些:https://github.com/richardszalay/mockhttp

Nuget包RichardSzalay。MockHttp可以在这里找到。

var mockHttp = new MockHttpMessageHandler();

// Setup a respond for the user api (including a wildcard in the URL)
mockHttp.When("http://localhost/api/user/*")
        .Respond("application/json", "{'name' : 'Test McGee'}"); // Respond with JSON

// Inject the handler or client into your application code
var client = new HttpClient(mockHttp);

var response = await client.GetAsync("http://localhost/api/user/1234");
// or without async: var response = client.GetAsync("http://localhost/api/user/1234").Result;

var json = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();

// No network connection required
Console.Write(json); // {'name' : 'Test McGee'}
