Providing test context while using `test_with_server`

[faizann]

How can we use test context from ExUnit while using test_with_server instead of test from ExUnit?

For example, we can use this syntax with ExUnit test macro.

test "uses metadata from setup", context do
    assert context[:hello] == "world"
    assert context[:from_named_setup] == true
  end

but we cannot provide a context for test_with_server as the second parameter is opts.

Posting a workaround for anyone that encounters this problem like we did as well.

Manually start fake server in a setup function and add that to your context.

def start_fake_server(_context) do
    name = String.to_atom("test_server_#{System.unique_integer([:positive, :monotonic])}")
    FakeServer.start!(name)
    on_exit(fn -> FakeServer.stop(name) end)
    [fake_server: FakeServer.Instance.state(name)]
end

# ..., usage:

setup :start_fake_server

setup :something_else

test "some test", %{
      fake_server: fake_server, something_else: something_else
    } do
      FakeServer.put_route!(
        fake_server.server_name,
        ClientRequest.api_path() <> "/xxxx",
        FakeServer.Response.ok!(%{"xxxx" => xxxx}, %{"Content-Type" => "application/json"})
      )
...
end
