This might be completely obvious for seasoned Elixirians (even like - you can’t do this obviously!) so bear with me please. I would like to interactively test behaviour of Plug.Conn.delete_session/2 Is there a way to do it from iex started Phoenix application environment?

You can always use
Plug.Test.conn/3to create testPlug.Conn.t/0instance (however beware that there is no way to create HTTP/2connthat way).silverdr
I see - that seems to be enough though as after
init_test_session/2I was able to use the Plug.Conn functions this way and I assume (please correct me if I am wrong) that they should behave the same. Namely I wanted to check what happens if Idelete_session/2when the key is not present. Seems that there is no exception in such case.kelvinst
By looking at the code for
Plug.Conn.delete_session/2here, it does look like it just returns the map unchanged when the key is not there, as it usesMap.delete/2and that’s its documented behavior.silverdr
Yes - thank you.
