Testing HTTP Functions

There are two distinct types of Cloud Functions. CloudEvent functions and background functions are both event-driven functions that are triggered by internal Cloud Platform events, while HTTP functions are triggered by HTTP requests.

A function's test structure depends on which Google Cloud Platform resources that function uses. In turn, a function's resource use depends on how that function is triggered.

This document describes how to test HTTP Cloud Functions. See Testing Event-Driven Functions for information on how to test event-driven functions.

HTTP-triggered functions

Like most Cloud Functions unit tests, HTTP-triggered function unit tests have a specific structure. However, system and integration tests are similar in structure—which is usually not the case for tests of other function types.

The following is an example HTTP function:

Node.js

const escapeHtml = require('escape-html');

/**
 * HTTP Cloud Function.
 *
 * @param {Object} req Cloud Function request context.
 *                     More info: https://expressjs.com/en/api.html#req
 * @param {Object} res Cloud Function response context.
 *                     More info: https://expressjs.com/en/api.html#res
 */
exports.helloHttp = (req, res) => {
  res.send(`Hello ${escapeHtml(req.query.name || req.body.name || 'World')}!`);
};

To run integration tests for HTTP functions, use the following command. You can configure the integration test samples shown above by changing the values used in the export commands shown below.

Node.js

export PORT=8080
mocha test/sample.integration.http.test.js --exit

Python

export PORT=8080
pytest sample_http_test_integration.py

Java

The Java integration test example always runs at localhost:8080, and does not use environment variables. Maven uses mvn verify to run integration tests.

mvn verify -Dit.test=ExampleIT

Note: if you're running the above sample in Gradle, you will need to change the mvn function:run command to the appropriate Gradle version shown here.

To run system tests for HTTP functions, deploy your functions with the following command:

Node.js

gcloud functions deploy helloHttp \
--runtime nodejs10 

You can use the following values for the --runtime flag to specify your preferred Node.js version:

• nodejs10
• nodejs12
• nodejs14 (public preview)

Python

gcloud functions deploy hello_http \
--runtime python38 

You can use the following values for the --runtime flag to specify your preferred Python version:

• python37
• python38
• python39 (public preview)

Go

gcloud functions deploy HelloHTTP \
--runtime go113 

You can use the following values for the --runtime flag to specify your preferred Go version:

• go111 (Deprecated)
• go113

Java

gcloud functions deploy java-hello-http \
--entry-point functions.HelloHttp \
--runtime java11 \
--memory 512MB 

Use the following commands to test your deployed HTTP function. Note that the primary difference between system tests and integration tests for HTTP Cloud Functions is the URL where the function can be reached:

Node.js

export BASE_URL=https://YOUR_GCF_REGION-YOUR_GCP_PROJECT_ID.cloudfunctions.net/
mocha test/sample.system.http.test.js --exit

Python

export BASE_URL=https://YOUR_GCF_REGION-YOUR_GCP_PROJECT_ID.cloudfunctions.net/
pytest sample_http_test_system.py

Go

export BASE_URL=https://YOUR_GCF_REGION-YOUR_GCP_PROJECT_ID.cloudfunctions.net/
go test -v ./hello_http_system_test.go

Java

Maven uses mvn verify to run system tests.

mvn verify -Dit.test=ExampleSystemIT

where:

• YOUR_GCF_REGION is your Cloud Functions region.
• YOUR_GCP_PROJECT_ID is your Cloud project ID.
