I am trying to test the following bit of code:

DimonaClient is just a simple wrapper around a Laravel HttpClient; simplified function here:

The getDeclaration() response is a \Illuminate\Http\Client\Response

What I am trying to do in my test is:

1. Mock the DimonaClient class so I don't create an actual api call
2. "Mock" (use Laravel's Http::response()) the response I want so that I can test that a 200 w/ certain statuses dispatches the appropriate event (also mocked, but not relevant here)

My test code looks like this:

My issue(s) seem to be:

1. the getDeclaration() has an expectation of Illuminate\Http\Client\Response but I can't seem to create anything that will satisfy that (a new Response wants a MessageInterface, etc, etc... )
2. I don't actually need getDeclaration() to return anything for my testing, so I wonder if I should be mocking this differently in any case (I base this assumption on Http::response handling the internal code I'm testing for things like $response->ok(), instead of a Mockery expectation)

I feel like I'm one small step away from making this work, but going round in circles trying to hook it up correctly.

TIA!

If you are using Http Facade, you don't need to mock DimonaCient. You are nearly there with your test, but let me show you what you would have done:

/** @test */
public function it_can_handle_an_approved_submission(): void
{
    Http::fake([
        '*' => Http::response([
            'declarationStatus' => [
                'result' => DimonaDeclarationStatus::ACCEPTED,
                'dimonaPeriodId' => $this->faker->numerify('############'),
            ],
        ],
    ]);

    $dimonaDeclarationId = $this->faker->numerify('############');

    // Do your normal call, and then assertions
}

Doing this, you will tell Http to fake any URL, because we are using *. I would recommend you use $this->endpoint/$declarationId so if it does not match, you will also know you did not hit the right endpoint.

I am not sure what Laravel you are using but this is available since Laravel 6 , check Http fake URLs.
