Writing tests using Scala Play Reverse Routes

[michae...@digital.hmrc.gov.uk]

Hello,

I am writing some acceptance tests for a Scala Play application and I am not sure how to test functionality using reverse routes. 

The `call` method accepts a value of type EssentialAction, but the value of a reverse route is `Call`. 

What is the best way to call a reverse route using Scalatest?

scenario("Some scenario") {
  Given("A valid header")
  val request = FakeRequest().withHeaders((ACCEPT, "application/xml"))
  When("the request is made with a valid foo")
  val result = call(controllers.routes.MyController.get(Foo("Some string")), request) // This does not compile
  Then("the status returned should be a 200")
  status(result) mustEqual 200
}

Thanks

Michael

Hi Michael,

Did you post this question to the play mailing list? I would recommend that as it requires Play expertise more than ScalaTest expertise.
