How to Test Laravel Socialite

Question

I have an application that makes use of socialite, I want to create test for Github authentication, So I used Socialite Facade to mock call to the Socialite driver

Answer 1

I've actually created Fake classes that return a dummy user data because I'm interested in testing my logic, not whether Socialite, nor the vendor work properly.

// This is the fake class that extends the original SocialiteManager
class SocialiteManager extends SocialiteSocialiteManager
{
    protected function createFacebookDriver()
    {
        return $this->buildProvider(
            FacebookProvider::class, // This class is a fake that returns dummy user in facebook's format
            $this->app->make('config')['services.facebook']
        );
    }

    protected function createGoogleDriver()
    {
        return $this->buildProvider(
            GoogleProvider::class, // This is a fake class that ereturns dummy user in google's format
            $this->app->make('config')['services.google']
        );
    }
}

And here is how one of the Fake providers look like:

class FacebookProvider extends SocialiteFacebookProvider
{
    protected function getUserByToken($token)
    {
        return [
            'id' => '123123123',
            'name' => 'John Doe',
            'email' => 'test@test.com',
            'avatar' => 'image.jpg',
        ];
    }
}

And of course in the test class, I replace the original SocialiteManager with my version:

public function setUp(): void
    {
        parent::setUp();

        $this->app->singleton(Factory::class, function ($app) {
            return new SocialiteManager($app);
        });
    }

This works pretty fine to me. No need to mock anything.
