ExternalUrlException in Laravel5 and Codeception

Question

I am getting the following error when try to test API in laravel using Codeception. I am accessing an external URL for API.

[ExternalUrlException] Codeception\Module\Laravel5 can't open external URL:

How I can fix this issue.

Answer 1

instead of putting http://xxx:8000/api/v1, use api/v1 for the url value instead.

Example:

actor: WapiTester
modules:
    enabled:
        - REST:
            url: api/v1
            depends: Laravel5
        - \Helper\Wapi
