Swagger path not recognized

Hi!

When processing an example swagger definition hippie-swagger complains of an undefined path that is defined:

'use strict'

var SwaggerParser = require('swagger-parser')
var parser = new SwaggerParser()
var hippie = require('hippie-swagger')
var expect = require('chai').expect
var path = require('path')
var dereferencedSwagger

describe('Example of', function () {
  before(function (done) {
    parser.dereference('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/master/examples/v2.0/json/petstore.json', function (err, api) {
      if (err) return done(err)
      dereferencedSwagger = api
      done()
    })
  })

  describe('correct usage', function () {
    it('should allow to post to /pets', function (done) {
      hippie(dereferencedSwagger)
      .json()
      .post('/pets')
      .expectStatus(200)
      .end(done)
    })
  })
})

The answer I receive is:

$ mocha index.js


  Example of
    correct usage
      1) should allow to post to /pets


  0 passing (225ms)
  1 failing

  1) Example of correct usage should allow to post to /pets:
     Error: Swagger spec does not define path: /pets

By the way, thanks for this awesome project!

@lcofre ah! yes you can absolutely test non-node applications this way. You just have to include the full uri in the request. This isn’t well documented and I’ll make a note to build a full fledged example for this use case.

Here’s a working snippet that I tested locally:

'use strict'

var SwaggerParser = require('swagger-parser')
var parser = new SwaggerParser()
var hippie = require('./index')
var expect = require('chai').expect
var path = require('path')
var dereferencedSwagger

describe('Example of', function () {
  before(function (done) {
    parser.dereference('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/master/examples/v2.0/json/petstore.json', function (err, api) {
      if (err) return done(err)
      dereferencedSwagger = api
      done()
    })
  })

  describe('correct usage', function () {
    it('should allow to post to /pets', function (done) {
      hippie(dereferencedSwagger)
      .json()
      .post('http://localhost:3000/v1/pets')   // fully qualified url
      .expectStatus(201)
      .end(done)
    })
  })
})

And the example server (can be run by any language / backend):

var http = require('http');

//create a server object:
http.createServer(function (req, res) {
  res.statusCode = 201
  res.write(JSON.stringify({}));
  res.end();
}).listen(3000);

Sorry! I supposed that with no app, it’ll try to test the “host” in the swagger definition or the server where the definition is hosted in. Is this not true?

Or in other words, can I only test NodeJS apps?

Thanks very much for your time!
