Get Method Of Frisby Does Not Work With Https

I am new to frisby test. today i found I can't access https://ip address from friby api for example: frisby.create('my test').get('https://199.59.148.20') output: connect error fr

Solution 1:

This is beacuse the unsafe connection (non-trusted SSL certificate). If you open same URL in a browser, it will ask for confirmation before to continue with the insecure connection.

To do the same thing in frisby, add a second param to .get(...) method to specify strictSSL = false as follows:

var frisby = require('frisby');

frisby.create('Get a https resource')
      .get('https://199.59.148.20', { strictSSL: false })
      .expectStatus(200) // For this case/IP-address this fails as it returns a 404
      .inspectBody()
      .toss();

Solution 2:

This is due to non-trusted SSL certificate. you can include this line at the beginning of your firsby test:

process.env.NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED = "0"

This will direct non-rejection of SSL cert.
