CMFactory 1.4.1

You want to add pod 'CMFactory', '~> 1.4' similar to the following to your Podfile:

target 'MyApp' do
  pod 'CMFactory', '~> 1.4'
end

Then run a pod install inside your terminal, or from CocoaPods.app.

Alternatively to give it a test run, run the command:

pod try CMFactory

CMFactory 1.4.1

By
Lucas Medeiros

This project brings the idea of FactoryGirl to iOS projects, and it loads fixtures and unmarshall them into a Mantle class or NSDictionary class.

Developed by Lucas Medeiros at Codeminer42 in Fortaleza

Development requirements

Cocoapods - https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods

Usage

Loading fixtures

#import "CMFixture.h"
#import "Kiwi.h"

SPEC_BEGIN(YourSpec)

    //If you use github's Mantle library                    
    beforeEach(^{
         YourClass *yourInstance = [CMFactory buildUsingMantleClass:[YourClass class] fromFixture:@"YourClass"];
         //Or
         NSArray *aColletion = [CMFactory buildUsingMantleClass:[YourClass class] fromFixture:@"People"];
    });

    //If you don't use github's Mantle library
    beforeEach(^{
         NSDictionary *dictionary = [CMFactory buildUsingFixture:@"YourClass"];
         //Or
         NSArray *aColletion = [CMFactory buildUsingFixture:@"People"];
    });

SPEC_END

After that, in your test project, you need to create a file with your factory name in .json or .plist format (Ex: if your factory name is 'People' and you have a file people.json and other people.plist it will unmarshall the .json file)

Creating instances dynamically

#import "CMFactory.h"
#import "Kiwi.h"

SPEC_BEGIN(YourSpec)

    specify(^{

        CMFactory *factory = [CMFactory forClass:[YourClass class]];

        [factory addToField:@"aFieldName" value:^{
             return @"www.codeminer42.com";
        }];

        YourClass *instance = [factory build];
        [[instance.aFieldName should] equal: @"www.codeminer42.com"];

    });

    context(@"when using sequence method", ^{

         __block CMFactory *factory;
         __block NSArray *images;

         beforeEach(^{
              factory = [CMFactory forClass:[CMImage class]];
              [factory addToField:@"url" sequenceValue:^(NSUInteger sequence) {
                  return [NSString stringWithFormat:@"www.github.com%d", sequence];
              }];
              images = [factory buildWithCapacity:3];
         });

         specify(^{
              [[images should] haveCountOf:3];
         });

         specify(^{

             for(NSUInteger i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
                 CMImage *image = [images objectAtIndex:i];
                  [[image.url should] equal:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"www.github.com%d", i]];
             }

         });

    });
