• Page Probe Test Design Patterns

Catalog of Design Patterns

• Design Patterns
• Use this catalog of patterns as you work on projects
• Django Tests

Shrinking World Testing

• Django Tests - Unit tests with test database
• Page Probe Tests - Fetch and examine web pages from local and remote servers
• Hammer Script Tests - Live local and remote servers

Django Tests

• Unit tests with test database
• Tests isolated components
• Does not change production data

Page Probe Tests

• Fetch and examine web pages from local and remote servers
• Use "requests" module in Python to fetch pages
• Use an app to manage test cases

python def execute_probe(probe): try: response = get(probe.page) except: response = None if not response: status = f'Status Code: Domain not found, {probe.page}' passed = False elif response.status_code != 200: status = f'Status Code: {response.status_code}' passed = False elif probe.text not in response.text: status = f'Text not found: {probe.text}' passed = False else: status = f'Matched: {probe.text}' passed = True Result.create(probe=probe, output=status, passed=passed)

Hammer Script Tests

• Live local and remote servers
• Used to test and
  • Complete server with command scripts
  • Local file environment

BUILD

Practice

• Clone my repo and study the code in Page Probe Source Code
• Build the code and experiment with it
• Set up tests for your favorite web sites
• Do it simple; do it now!
