Flask has great support for JSON, and is a popular choice for building REST
APIs. Testing both JSON requests and responses using the test client is very
convenient:
from flask import json, jsonify
from flask import jsonify
@app.route('/api/auth')
def auth():
email = request.json['email']
password = request.json['password']
email = request.get_json()['email']
password = request.get_json()['password']
return jsonify(token=generate_token(email, password))
with app.test_client() as c:
email = 'john@example.com'
password = 'secret'
resp = c.post('/api/auth', json={'email': email, 'password': password})
assert verify_token(email, resp.json['token'])
resp = c.post('/api/auth', json={'login': email, 'password': password})
assert verify_token(email, resp.get_json()['token'])
Note that if the ``json`` argument is provided then the test client will put
the JSON-serialized object in the request body, and also set the
``Content-Type: application/json`` header.
