I added Pow to my application using this guide because i have a JSON api structure, but after integrate with pow, my controller tests broke because neither of them needed to have a session before and now they do. The problem is that i’m not being able to make the tests work, my approach so far was c…

[image] caslu: Yeah, i did understand the connection flow but what i’m not getting here is why the connection do not re-assign the user before do the get action even when i pipe through the plug assign_current_user but it does work if i do a manual recycle to connection with recycle/2 or build a…

Haven’t used pow myself, but I guess you should do something like they do in their tests, conn |> PowPlug.assign_current_user(@user, []) https://github.com/pow-auth/pow/blob/801408e7ce74ecfd85aae1ecc0380187ddb25c3c/test/extensions/reset_password/phoenix/controllers/reset_password_controller_test.e…

I’m already doing this on setup method, but on my snippet for some reason the name of modules are lowercased, but you can check here: setup %{conn: conn} do user = user_fixture() authed_conn = conn |> put_req_header("accept", "application/json") # the assignment line |> Pow.Plu…

Sure, here… defmodule PontoCaoWeb.EventControllerTest do use PontoCaoWeb.ConnCase import PontoCao.AnnouncementsFixtures import PontoCao.UsersFixtures alias PontoCao.Announcements.Event @create_attrs %{ description: "some description of random event", title: "some title", la…

Is the project somewhere accessible?

Yeah bro, you can check the repo here

UPDATE: I’ve fixed the error, apparently there was something with connection recycling in Phoenix.ConnTest… Here’s some snippet of their docs: ## Recycling Keep in mind Phoenix will automatically recycle the connection between dispatches. This usually works out well most times, but it may…

Recycling a conn tries to do essentially the same as what happens when a browser would navigate to a new route. Only things like cookies, some headers, hostname, … will be retained. assigns are not retained between multiple requests being made, but need to be computed and set freshly for each reques…

Yeah, i did understand the connection flow but what i’m not getting here is why the connection do not re-assign the user before do the get action even when i pipe through the plug assign_current_user but it does work if i do a manual recycle to connection with recycle/2 or build a fresh conn then as…

Learned something new here. I think I’ve never reused a conn in a test before, at least not in this fashion.
