12-TestEndToEndMockFromCAP

Test end to end from Mock service to BTP CAP application

If you made it this far, this step is where it all comes together. Here, we will hire a new employee in mock service, confirm the seniority is written back, and access the CAP endpoint on the BTP to check the history record.

The same process works for an employee whose employment is terminated, as well as a rehired employee, but the extension logic assumes the employee's history is present in the CDS entity. For a productive use case, it would be advisable to initially replicate records for all current employees to the extension. Furthermore, some scheduling of the extension to regularly update seniority values might also be necessary.

Hiring a new employee

1. Open the request.http file present in srv folder of Application.
   

2. Send Post request after editing the mockSfsfBtpEndpoint and username.

   Note: mockSfsfBtpEndpoint should look like https://<api-endpoint>/odata/v2. <api-endpoint> is the application URL of deployed mock service.

   Note: Ten mock users are created with user IDs ranging from 00001-00010. Feel free to utilize one of those Ids, as the necessary details of users are set up.

   Note: Status should be "HIRENEW" for new Hires and "REHREH" for Rehire.

Response should be as below:

3. After successfully sending the POST request, the seniority calculator application updates the EmpEmployment Entity with seniority details. To check the output, utilize the GET request as shown below.

   

4. The GET request responds with the updated entity, including seniority calculations.

   

If you reach this point, then the mock application and seniority calculator application are set up and tested successfully.
