Writing an Integration Test

Writing an Integration Test

In this lesson, you’ll learn how to write an integration test for an Ember application.

Creating a test component

Components in Ember are tested via integration, or rendering, tests. Let’s type the following command:

ember g component-test star-rating

Ember-CLI has generated the following test stub for us:

JavaScript (JSX)
// tests/integration/components/star-rating-test.js
import { module, test } from 'qunit';
import { setupRenderingTest } from 'ember-qunit'; 
import { render } from '@ember/test-helpers'; 
import { hbs } from 'ember-cli-htmlbars';
module('Integration | Component | star-rating', function(hooks) { 
  setupRenderingTest(hooks);
  test('it renders', async function(assert) {
// Set any properties with this.set('myProperty', 'value');
// Handle any actions with this.set('myAction', function(val) {... });
    await render(hbs`<StarRating />`);
    assert.equal(this.element.textContent.trim(), '');
    // Template block usage:
    await render(hbs`
      <StarRating>
        template block text
      </StarRating>
`);
    assert.equal(this.element.textContent.trim(), 'template blocktext');
  }); 
});

Difference between acceptance and integration test stubs

This looks really similar to the acceptance test stub. The first difference is that setupRenderingTest is imported instead of setupApplicationTest as a way to prepare the context for the appropriate test. The second ...
