Integrating goweb 1.4 and gae-go-testing (@tenntenn version)

[patto_chennai]

Hey All,

Is anyone tempting to integrate unit testing from gae with unit test from goweb?

gae-go-testing create an implementation of an appengine context with a child process that contains a running instance of the devserver environment.  

I am not able to get the http to fire up a request that my goweb controllers catch ... any ideas?

Hey

Are you setting the Content-Type?

If not, it will assume normal HTTP form encoding.  (see http://code.google.com/p/goweb/source/browse/goweb/decoders.go#62)

Thanks for your reply. Vladimir Mihailenco (on the appengine-go group) Suggested that I use : I did not use goweb, but in general you should be able to use http.DefaultServeMux: https://gist.github.com/3742087

w, err := httptest.Get(context, "/posts")

Which I did quite successfully, i.e. I now get the http call to be executed in the child context instance generated by gae-go-testing, I will now proceed to set up Content-Type.

I must say that prior to integrating gae-go-testing my initial test from a 'poster' to the goweb controller, Fill did not work even though I set the Content-Type will let you know. 

I see you also developed the gae-record package, are you using it in conjunction with goweb a lot?

Mat,

I am now able to get the controller to fire, the content type seem good, but I am getting the following output

Test Entered

GOWEB CREATE

json: Unmarshal(non-pointer pcg_lib.Panchangam)

PASS

for the following code 

func (cr *MyPanchangamRessourceControl) Create(cx *goweb.Context) {

fmt.Printf("GOWEB CREATE\n")

var data = Panchangam{}

err := cx.Fill(data)

fmt.Printf(err.Error() + "\n")\

I have tried all combination on the data declaration, but to no avail.

Try passing the address of 'data' to the Fill method like this:  cx.Fill(&data)

Hey

gae-record needs to be updated for Go1 - I'm using it in slightly older Go release instances and haven't had time to update it yet.

But feel free to use it, update it and let me know.
