This library provides a developer-friendly method to mock your GraphQL requests. By default, it ships with the following features:
- Automatic mocking of types and fields based on schema definition.
- Deterministic randomization of mocked values based on the provided mock shape, to support usage of features such as snapshots.
- Support for queries using fragments, unions & interfaces.
- Allows usage of functions as mock values, which have the signature of a GraphQL resolver, and are resolved at runtime.
import { ergonomock } from 'graphql-ergonomock';
// Given a particular GraphQL Schema, ...

type Shape {
id: ID!

}

// ...a GraphQL query, ...

The ergonomock()
function can be used on its own to create mock responses out of GraphQL queries.
See example
import { ergonomock } from 'graphql-ergonomock';
import schema from '../my-schema.graphql';
test("I can mock a response", () => {
const resp = ergonomock(schema, 'query MyCrucialOperation { car { id, plateNumber } }', {
mocks: { car: { plateNumber: '123abc' } }
});
expect(resp).toMatchObject({
data: {
car: {
id: expect.toBeString(),
plateNumber: '123abc'
}
}
});
});
If your app uses Apollo-Client, you can also use ErgonoMockedProvider
which wraps ergonomock()
. The generated values are stable & deterministic based on the query name, shape, and variables (this is so you can leverage testing snapshots if you are so inclined).
See example
import { ErgonoMockedProvider as MockedProvider } from 'graphql-ergonomock';
import schema from '../my-schema.graphql';
test("I can mock a response", () => {
const mocks = {
MyCrucialOperation: {
car: { plateNumber: '123abc' }
}
};
const { findByText } = render(
<MockedProvider schema={schema} mocks={mocks}>
<MyApp />
</MockedProvider>
);
expect(await findByText(/'123abc'/)).toBeVisible();
});
If a particular component is called multiple times in the React tree (but with different variables), you can provide a function as value for an operation, and the function will be called with the operation: GraphQLOperation
as first and only argument.
See example
import { ErgonoMockedProvider as MockedProvider } from 'graphql-ergonomock';
import schema from '../my-schema.graphql';
test("I can mock a response with a function", () => {
let cardinality = 0;
const mocks = {
MyCrucialOperation: (operation) => ({ plateNumber: `aaa00${cardinality++}` })
};
const { findAllByText } = render(
<MockedProvider schema={schema} mocks={mocks}>
<MyApp />
</MockedProvider>
);
expect(await findAllByText(/'aaa00'/)).toHaveLength(3);
});
Finally, you can spy on executed operations via the onCall
prop.
See example
const spy = jest.fn();
const { findByText } = render(
<MockedProvider schema={schema} onCall={spy}>
<MyComponent id="1" />
<MyComponent id="2" />
<MyComponent id="3" />
</MockedProvider>
);
//...
expect(spy.mock.calls).toHaveLength(3);
const { operation, response } = spy.mock.calls[0][0];
expect(operation.variables.id).toEqual("1");
You can use functions for any part of the nested mock, and it will be used as a resolver for this field. The typical signature for a resolver is (root, args, context, info) => any
.
See example
// ...
const mocks = {
returnShape: {
returnInt: 4321,
nestedShape: (root: any, args: any, ctx: any, info: any) => {
return {
returnInt: root.someField ? 1234 : 5678
};
}
}
}
//...
If you have custom scalar types or would like to provide default mock resolver functions for certain types, you can pass your mock functions via the resolvers
option.
See example
const schema = gql`
type Shape = {
id: ID!
returnInt: Int
date: Date
nestedShape: Shape
}
type Query {
getShape: Shape
}
`;
const testQuery = gql`
{
getShape {
id
returnInt
date
nestedShape {
date
}
}
}
`;
const resp = ergonomock(schema, testQuery, {
resolvers: {
Date: () => "2021-04-09"
}
});
expect(resp.data).toMatchObject({
id: expect.toBeString(),
returnInt: expect.toBeNumber(),
date: '2021-04-09'
nestedShape {
date: '2021-04-09'
}
});
You can return or throw errors within the mock shape.
See example
const testQuery = gql`
{
getCar {
id
}
}
`;
const resp = ergonomock(schema, testQuery, {
mocks: {
getCar: () => { throw new Error("Server Error"); }
// or simply getCar: new Error("Server Error")
}
});
console.log(resp.data.getCar); // null
console.log(resp.errors[0]); // { message: "Server Error", ...}
You can mock mutations, but if you are using ergonomock()
directly, you'll have to provide the correct variables for the operation in order for it to not fail.
See example
test("Can partially mock mutations", () => {
const query = /* GraphQL */ `
mutation SampleQuery($input: ShapeInput!) {
createShape(input: $input) {
id
returnInt
returnString
}
}
`;
const resp: any = ergonomock(schema, query, {
mocks: {
createShape: { id: "567" }
},
variables: {
input: { someID: "123", someInt: 123 }
}
});
expect(resp.data.createShape).toMatchObject({
id: "567",
returnInt: expect.toBeNumber(),
returnString: expect.toBeString()
});
});
The ergonomock(schema, query, options)
function takes 3 arguments
- (required) A GraphQL schema (not in SDL form).
- (required) A GraphQL query, either in SDL (string) form, or
DocumentNode
. - (optional) An option object.
mocks
is an object that can partially or fully match the expected response shape.seed
is a string used to seed the random number generator for automocked values.variables
is the variable values object used in the query or mutation.
This component's props are very similar to Apollo-Client's MockedProvider. The only differences are:
mocks
is an object where keys are the operation names and the values are themocks
input thatergonomock()
would accept. (i.e. could be empty, or any shape that matches the expected response.)onCall
is a handler that gets called by any executed query. The call signature is({operation: GraphQLOperation, response: any}) => void
where response is the full response being returned to that single query. The purpose ofonCall
is to provide some sort of spy (orjest.fn()
) to make assertions on which calls went through, with which variables, and get a handle on the generated values fromergonomock()
.resolvers
is an object where the keys are thegql
type and the values are the mock resolver functions. It's designed to allow users to override or provide a default mock function for certain types. (e.g. custom scalar types) The call signature is(root, args, context, info) => any
.
