test-rooms

Integration tests for call-room route behaviour.

Tests in this module exercise the /call and /create-room endpoints through the test client, focusing on redirect logic and access control rather than rendered content. Socket.IO room state is not seeded, so all room-access tests reflect the behaviour of an empty rooms dictionary.

tests.test_rooms.test_create_room_requires_login(client)

Create-room endpoint redirects unauthenticated requests to the login page.

Issues a POST /create-room with no active session and follows the redirect chain. Asserts 200 OK on the final response, confirming that login_required() intercepted the request and the user was returned to a valid page (the login form) rather than receiving an error.

Parameters:

client (flask.testing.FlaskClient) – The test client provided by client().

tests.test_rooms.test_invalid_room_returns_404(client)

Call endpoint redirects to /join when the room code does not exist.

Issues a GET /call?room=FAKE-0000 for a room code that has no corresponding Room row and asserts a 302 redirect. The redirect target is /join rather than a true 404, which is the application’s intended behaviour — an unknown room code is treated as a user error rather than a missing resource.

Parameters:

client (flask.testing.FlaskClient) – The test client provided by client().

tests.test_rooms.test_valid_room_returns_200(client, test_room, logged_in_owner)

Call endpoint redirects the owner when they are not yet in the Socket.IO room.

Issues a GET /call?room=TEST-1234 as the authenticated room owner and asserts a 302 redirect. Even though the owner is exempt from the guest host-presence check, the in-memory rooms dictionary is empty in the test environment (no Socket.IO connection has been made), so the view still redirects rather than rendering the call page. A 200 would only be returned once the owner’s SID is registered via a real join_room WebSocket event.

Parameters:

  • client (flask.testing.FlaskClient) – The test client provided by client().

  • test_room (app.models.Room) – The seeded room with code 'TEST-1234', provided by test_room().

  • logged_in_owner (app.models.User) – The authenticated room owner, provided by logged_in_owner().
