Chapter 7 – Testing Gin HTTP Routes

1. Define a TestUpdateRecipeHandler in main_test.go as follows:

   func TestUpdateRecipeHandler(t *testing.T) { 
      ts := httptest.NewServer(SetupServer()) 
      defer ts.Close() 
    
      recipe := Recipe{ 
          ID:   "c0283p3d0cvuglq85log", 
          Name: "Oregano Marinated Chicken", 
      } 
    
      raw, _ := json.Marshal(recipe) 
      resp, err := http.PUT(fmt.Sprintf("%s/recipes/%s", ts.URL, recipe.ID), bytes.NewBuffer(raw)) 
      defer resp.Body.Close() 
      assert.Nil(t, err) 
      assert.Equal(t, http.StatusOK, resp.StatusCode) 
      data, _ := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body) 
    
      var payload map[string]string 
      json.Unmarshal(data, &payload) 
    
      ...
