Testing auditing

The auditortest package provides useful methods for verifying calls to audit.Record() reducing the amount of code duplication to setup a mock auditor and verify its invocations during a test case.

Getting started

Create an auditor mock that returns no error.

auditor :=  auditortest.New(t)

Create an auditor mock that returns an error when Record() is called with particular action and result values

auditor := auditortest.NewErroring(t, "some task", "the outcome")

Assert auditor.Record() is called the expected number of times and the action, result and auditParam values in each call are as expected.

auditor.AssertRecordCalls(
    auditortest.Expected{"my_action", audit.Attempted, common.Params{"key":"value"}},
    auditortest.Expected{instance.GetInstancesAction, audit.Successful, nil},
)
