As I mentioned earlier, testing is considered paramount in the hapi ecosystem, with every module in the ecosystem having to maintain 100% code coverage at all times, as with all module dependencies.
Fortunately, hapi provides us with some tools to make the testing of hapi apps much easier through a module called shot, which simulates network requests to a hapi server. Taking our first example of the hello world server given in Chapter 1, Introducing hapi.js, let's write a simple test for it:
const Code = require('code');
const Lab = require('lab');
const Hapi = require('hapi');
const lab = exports.lab = Lab.script();
lab.test('It will return Hello World', (done) => {
const server = new Hapi.Server();
server.connection();
server.route({
method: 'GET',
path: '/',
handler: function (request, reply) {
return reply('Hello World\n');
}
});
server.inject('/', (res) => {
Code.expect(res.statusCode).to.equal(200);
