Do you have testing stubs?

[ysyyork]

Do you provide testing stubs? Or I have to write by myself?

Hi @ysyyork,

Short answer: no. I want to get something tooled around this (and I think it'll happen relatively soon), but we're not shipping any official testing package right now.

Longer answer if you're willing to get your hands a bit dirty: the test suite in this repository uses a Committee-based testing stub that's powered by our OpenAPI schema. You could basically vendor in the code found in this file along with the schema, and you'll have a fairly accurate set of testing stubs.

I'm going to close this out for now as a dup of #243, but let me know if you have any other questions.

What’s the answer to this request? Any movement on development?

@joshm1204 Check out stripe-mock. It's still not as fully-featured of a solution as we'd like to eventually provide (see the README for a detailed list of features and missing features), but it's working as a test solution for a lot of our projects, and it may work for you.

@brandur-stripe Thanks for linking to stripe-mock. I was just checking it out, too, and have it running locally.

As for using it for testing my own projects, is there a recommended way to configure stripe-ruby to use the local server?

[ob-stripe]

@YSavir You can change the base URL used by stripe-ruby:

Stripe.api_base = 'http://localhost:12111'

@ob-stripe awesome, thanks!

And thanks for making the stripe gem easy to work with. :)

@brandur-stripe stripe-mock, looks like a whole server, to avoid excess components it would be nice to have some basic stubs. Is there a way to use stripe-mock without installing a separate server?

Is Stripe going to come out with anything like https://github.com/rebelidealist/stripe-ruby-mock? Its more light weight, but the disadvantage of stripe-ruby-mock is that it's not maintained by stripe and it always lagging. stripe-ruby-mock, can run a thin server to persist data, but it's not required to use it.

Maybe eventually, but we don't currently have one in the works. One thing we'd need to do for a project like that is make sure we could built it sustainably, as manual maintenance on a like package in seven languages would be a heavy ongoing burden.
