This is a test macro. It can be used to test handling any HTTP method supported by SuperAgent.

Example use of this test in typescript:

import anyTest, { TestInterface } from "ava";
import express from "express";
import superTest from "supertest";

import * as restHALTestTools from "@yeiniel/rest-hal-test-tools";

const test = anyTest as TestInterface<restHALTestTools.IContext>;

test.beforeEach((t) => {
   const app = express();

   // provide an endpoint handler for the GET method
   app.get("/", (_, res) => {
       res.format({
           default: () => res.status(406).end(),
           json: () => res.json({}).end(),
       });
   });

   t.context.agent = superTest(app);
   t.context.resource = "/";
});

// resource handle get requests
test(restHALTestTools.implementSDCN, "get");
