Test the Password Confirmation

1:37 with Guil Hernandez

Test the confirmedPassword attribute added to the User model and the VIRTUAL data type change made to the password attribute.

Now it's time to test the confirmedPassword attribute 0:00
added to the user model, 0:03
as well as the virtual data type change made to the password attribute. 0:05
If the confirmedPassword and password values match, the setter and 0:09
confirmedPassword should hash the password and set the value to store. 0:14
And, setting passwords datatype to virtual 0:19
should prevent the unhatched password from being stored in the database. 0:22
In Postman, our first test sending a POST request with passwords that do not match 0:27
I get a 400 status with the error both passwords must match in the response. 0:37
Now I'll make sure that the password's match. 0:44
This time, I receive a 201 Created status code with the message, 0:49
Account successfully created in the response. 0:53
Sending a GET request to the API users route returns the new user and 0:58
notice how confirmedPassword displays the hash password value. 1:03
And it's the only password field we get back. 1:08
The virtual password field never gets inserted into the database. 1:11
All right, excellent work writing the validations, constraints, and 1:15
custom error messages for the user model. 1:20
Now you can apply what you've learned in this workshop 1:22
to just about all your Sequelize models moving forward. 1:25
Be sure to review and 1:28
try out some of the other validators listed in the Sequelize docs. 1:29
I've posted the resource in the teachers notes with this video. 1:32
Happy coding everyone. 1:35
