Testing

Kinetis\Testing\TestClient wraps a Kernel and builds requests for you, so a test doesn’t have to construct a ServerRequest and call handle() by hand.

use Kinetis\Container\AppScope;
use Kinetis\Http\Kernel;
use Kinetis\Http\Routing\Router;
use Kinetis\Testing\TestClient;
use App\Controllers\UserController;

$app = new AppScope();
$app->boot();

$router = new Router();
$router->register(UserController::class);

$client = new TestClient(new Kernel($app, $router));

$response = $client->get('/users/42');
$response = $client->post('/users', body: ['name' => 'John Doe', 'email' => 'john@example.com']);

get()/post()/put()/patch()/delete() all return the same PSR-7 ResponseInterface a real request would — nothing wrapped, so getStatusCode()/getBody()/getHeaderLine() work exactly as they already do in Getting Started’s examples.

Query parameters and bodies

$client->get('/users', query: ['page' => 2, 'limit' => 10]);
$client->post('/orders', body: ['sku' => 'ABC123', 'quantity' => 2]);

body is a plain array, JSON-encoded automatically. Content-Type: application/json is set unless you pass your own:

$client->post('/webhooks', body: $payload, headers: ['Content-Type' => 'application/vnd.custom+json']);

The general form

Every verb method calls request(), which is available directly for anything the shorthands don’t cover:

$client->request('DELETE', '/users/42', headers: ['Authorization' => 'Bearer test-token']);
