Simpler test helpers for Goliath

simpler_goliath_test_helpers.rb

# Additional methods for Goliath::TestHelper to make simple Goliath testing
# simple. You might need the other syntax for testing gnarly stuff, but I've
# yet to need it. To use, just include this in your spec_helper.rb.
#
# Your spec must respond to #api and return the Goliath API class to test.
#
# @example
#  describe MyAPI do
#    let(:api) { MyAPI }
#    describe "GET /" do
#      subject { get("/") }
#      its("response_header.status") { should == 200 }
#    end
#  end
#
# It's just the same if you're using #before instead of #subject:
#
# @example
#  describe MyAPI do
#    let(:api) { MyAPI }
#    describe "GET /" do
#      before do
#        @client = get("/")
#      end
#      it "has a 200 response" do
#        @client.response_header.status.should == 200
#      end
#    end
#  end
#
# If you need to execute within the EM reactor use the block syntax:
#
# @example
#  describe MyAPI do
#    let(:api) { MyAPI }
#    describe "GET /" do
#      get("/") do |client|
#        @client.response_header.status.should == 200
#      end
#    end
#  end
module Goliath::TestHelper
  def get path, opts={}, &callback
    server_request :get, path, opts, &callback
  end
  def post path, opts={}, &callback
    server_request :post, path, opts, &callback
  end
  def put path, opts={}, &callback
    server_request :put, path, opts, &callback
  end
  def delete path, opts={}, &callback
    server_request :delete, path, opts, &callback
  end
  def server_request method, path, opts={}, &callback
    req = nil
    with_api(api) do
      req = EM::HttpRequest.new("http://localhost:#{@test_server_port}#{path}").__send__(method, opts)
      req.callback &callback
      req.callback { stop }
      req.errback  { stop }
      req
    end
    req
  end
end

Just pushed a new version above that supports the block and block-less syntax…

Ah, nice. Yea if you don't need to use the reactor that should work well.

Hey guys, sorry, running way behind here.. @toolmantim that looks pretty nice. Could you convert this into a pull on the repo, and we'll continue there?
