import { actorCalled } from '@serenity-js/core';
import { CallAnApi, DeleteRequest, GetRequest, LastResponse, PostRequest, Send } from '@serenity-js/rest'
import { Ensure, equals, startsWith } from '@serenity-js/assertions';

const actor = actorCalled('Apisit').whoCan(CallAnApi.at('https://myapp.com/api'));

actor.attemptsTo(
    // no users present in the system
    Send.a(GetRequest.to('/users')),
    Ensure.that(LastResponse.status(), equals(200)),
    Ensure.that(LastResponse.body(), equals([])),

    // create a new test user account
    Send.a(PostRequest.to('/users').with({
        login: 'tester',
        password: 'P@ssword1',
    }),
    Ensure.that(LastResponse.status(), equals(201)),
    Ensure.that(LastResponse.header('Location'), startsWith('/users')),
