Authenticating a Test Socket

Most of our channels code relies on an authenticated user. We’ll start our tests with the socket authentication. Let’s do that now.

Create a rumbrella/apps/rumbl/test/channels/user_socket_test.exs file containing:

testing_otp/listings/rumbrella/apps/rumbl/test/channels/user_socket_test.exs

defmodule Rumbl.Channels.UserSocketTest do
  use Rumbl.ChannelCase, async: true
  alias Rumbl.UserSocket

  test "socket authentication with valid token" do 
    token = Phoenix.Token.sign(@endpoint, "user socket", "123")

  end

  test "socket authentication with invalid ...
