Contract testing basics in Testing Fundamentals - Interactive Code Practice

Practice - 5 Tasks

1fill in blank

easy

Complete the code to define a contract test that checks the provider's response status.

Testing Fundamentals

def test_provider_response():
    response = provider.get_data()
    assert response.status_code == [1]

A200

B404

C500

D302

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 404 which means 'Not Found' instead of 200.

Using 500 which means server error.

The HTTP status code 200 means the request was successful, which is expected in a contract test for a valid response.

medium

Complete the code to verify the provider returns the expected JSON key in the contract test.

Testing Fundamentals

def test_provider_data_keys():
    data = provider.get_data().json()
    assert '[1]' in data

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Dmessage

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Checking for 'error' key which is for error responses.

Using 'message' which is usually for status messages.

The contract expects the provider to return a JSON with the key userId, which identifies the user data.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the assertion to correctly check the provider's response content type.

Testing Fundamentals

def test_content_type():
    response = provider.get_data()
    assert response.headers['Content-Type'] == [1]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A'application/xml'

B'text/html'

C'multipart/form-data'

D'application/json'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'text/html' which is for web pages.

Using 'application/xml' which is for XML data.

The contract requires the provider to return JSON data, so the content type must be application/json.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a contract test that checks the provider's response time and status code.

Testing Fundamentals

def test_response_time_and_status():
    response = provider.get_data()
    assert response.elapsed.total_seconds() [1] 1.0
    assert response.status_code [2] 200

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A<

B==

C!=

D>

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '>' for response time which would allow slow responses.

Using '!=' for status code which would accept errors.

The test checks that the response time is less than 1 second and the status code equals 200, ensuring performance and correctness.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to write a contract test that verifies the provider's JSON response structure.

Testing Fundamentals

def test_json_structure():
    data = provider.get_data().json()
    assert isinstance(data, [1])
    assert '[2]' in data
    assert isinstance(data['[2]'], [3])

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Clist

Dstr

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Assuming the top-level JSON is a list instead of a dictionary.

Checking for a key other than 'user'.

Expecting the 'user' value to be a string instead of a dictionary.

The response should be a dictionary containing a key 'user', which itself is a dictionary representing user details.
