Webhook Testing

[Conrad Fuhrman]

Is there anyway to test send a post to the webhook Ive registered, rather than waiting for one to occur? I would love to be able to test some of the processes and sample data that might be sent so I can set up local jobs to organize the data after the fact.

Thanks again!

When initially setting up web hooks for http://brewdega.com, I registered a http://requestb.in/ URL to collect a few web hook POSTs from BreweryDB.com. I then inspected those POSTs and created several Rspec request specs to mimic those web hooks. After that it was a simple matter of driving out my code to make the tests pass.

When I finally enabled the hooks in production, they worked without a hitch!

I'm not sure what stack you're on, but hopefully your test framework of choice has a way to do lower-level HTTP API tests.
