# Apr 12th 2019, 14:40 neon1024 and regenerating all your json fixtures
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:40 ricksaccous comparing two php arrays is a lot easier
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:40 neon1024 Any schema change requires rebaking all your fixtures
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:40 ricksaccous yeah that makes sense
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:40 neon1024 Because it’s far too fragile
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:40 ricksaccous i am just thinking aloud as to why
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:40 ricksaccous yeah
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:39 ricksaccous actually trimming white space would ruin some stuff
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:39 neon1024 No, as I said, you don’t want to do that
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:39 neon1024 Well that’s what `$this->assertResponseContains()` can do for you, but it doesn’t understand nesting
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:39 ricksaccous you might be able to do assertEqual if you trim whitespace, not sure about that
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:38 ricksaccous hehe, yeah i suppose, json as arrays seem the easiest in php
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:38 neon1024 Even with fixtures
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:38 neon1024 But you don’t want to to `$this->assertEqual($response, $json)` as it’s too fragile
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:37 ricksaccous got it
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:37 neon1024 @ricksaccous I am refactoring the way we produce our json response, away from a horrible helper into using league/fractal. So I need to have test-cases to ensure that the refactor is producing the same results as the existing response
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:32 ricksaccous oh ok
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:32 neon1024 I am writing a test-case for my JSON web service. So neither of those
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:32 ricksaccous lol
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:32 ricksaccous or just a raw json response?
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:31 ricksaccous with html
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:31 ricksaccous wait are you trying to grab the json out of a web page?
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:31 neon1024 Makes sense, thanks @dereuromark
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:31 neon1024 Yeah, array and assert array I guess
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:31 dereuromark it can json decode for it
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:31 ricksaccous oh wow
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:31 neon1024 Figured perhaps regex? But regex on json feels kinda wrong
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:31 dereuromark write your own assertJson..() methods via trait
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:30 neon1024 I can use `$this->assertResponseContains()`, but it doesn’t seem to do nesting
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:30 neon1024 I’d like to ensure that `{ "call": { "features": "" } }` exists
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:30 neon1024 What’s a good solution for doing integration testing on json to assert something exists inside another dimension of json?
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:08 spencdev looks like `$this->request->session()` is where I can check how much time is left
# Apr 12th 2019, 14:01 spencdev by interfering I mean extending the timeout, I'm just using the basic auth componenet
# Apr 12th 2019, 13:59 dereuromark depens on how he is locked in. and checking the session is not really interfering with it is it?
# Apr 12th 2019, 13:52 spencdev hey, been away from cake for awhile, is it possible to check if a user is logged in without interfering with the session?
# Apr 12th 2019, 13:37 ricksaccous including all fields necessary for joining
# Apr 12th 2019, 13:37 ricksaccous if you ->select you are required to specify fields in contain
# Apr 12th 2019, 13:37 ricksaccous ->select and within a contain 'fields' key
# Apr 12th 2019, 13:36 liaogz82 say i want to show tag id
# Apr 12th 2019, 13:36 liaogz82 how do I filter away the columns of tags?
# Apr 12th 2019, 13:35 liaogz82 then for hasMany relationship say article has many tags
