How to send raw post data in a Rails functional test?

Question

I\'m looking to send raw post data (e.g. unparamaterized JSON) to one of my controllers for testing:

class LegacyOrderUpdateControllerTest < ActionControl         


        

Answer 1

In rails, 5.1 the following work for me when doing a delete request that needed data in the body:

delete your_app_url, as: :json, env: {
   "RAW_POST_DATA" =>  {"a_key" => "a_value"}.to_json
}

NOTE: This only works when doing an Integration test.
