Crate sova_testing 

Framework-style test harness for Sova.

• SqliteTestDb — tempfile sqlite + migrate
• TestApp — App bootstrap with Db + plugins
• ResponseAssert / assert_json_snapshot — uniform response checks

Apps: prefer sova = { features = ["testing"] } — the facade re-exports this crate. Plugins: depend on sova-testing / sova-core directly (avoid the facade).

Auth helpers (acting_as, user factories) live in [sova_auth::testing]. Notification acting_as_id lives in [sova_notifications::testing].

use sova::{ResponseAssert, TestApp, TestClient, assert_json_snapshot};
use sova_notifications::testing::ActingAs;

let (_db, app) = TestApp::builder()
    .migrator::<NotificationsMigrator>()
    .install(Notifications::new().mount("/notifications"))
    .build()
    .await;
let c = TestClient::tracked(app).await.unwrap();
c.acting_as_id(1);
let res = c.get("/notifications").await;
res.assert_status(200);
assert_json_snapshot!("inbox", res.json_value());

Re-exports

pub use insta;

Macros

assert_json_snapshot

Assert JSON snapshot with common redactions (id, timestamps).

Structs

SqliteTestDb

Isolated sqlite file + URL. Keeps TempDir alive for the test duration.

TestApp

Fluent bootstrap: migrate sqlite, install Db + plugins, run_startup.

TestAppBuilder

Traits

ResponseAssert

Fluent assertions for HTTP responses in tests.

Functions

apply_migrations

Run each migration’s up (for tests). Prefer unique [MigrationName]s so MigratorTrait::up / migrate CLI also work on composed migrators.

with_json_redactions

Redact volatile fields commonly present in API JSON.
