Matching request headers on iOS 8

[baut]

I'm stubbing a request like the below

stubRequest(@"GET", wildUrl.regex).withHeaders(@{@"Authorization": @"Bearer 123"}).andReturn(200);

It's working fine on the iOS 7.1 sim but isn't matching the request on iOS 8 sim - it seems that the headers don't exist on the request in startLoading on LSHTTPStubURLProtocol.

Anyone else experiencing this? Stubbing is working fine on iOS 8 when not trying to match headers.

I'm running into this as well using Xcode 6.0.1 targetting 8.0, trying to verify that a header with a UUID is matched. Could be I'm missing something?

#define EXP_SHORTHAND
#import "Expecta.h"
#import "Specta.h"
#import "Nocilla.h"

SpecBegin(Requests)

describe(@"Nocilla", ^{

    __block NSString *fakeURL;

    beforeAll(^{
        fakeURL = @"http://somefakeplace.com";
        [[LSNocilla sharedInstance] start];
    });

    afterAll(^{
        [[LSNocilla sharedInstance] stop];
    });
    afterEach(^{
        [[LSNocilla sharedInstance] clearStubs];
    });

    it(@"control to verify regex is valid", ^{
        NSRegularExpression *headerRegex = [NSRegularExpression regularExpressionWithPattern:@"[\\w]{8}(-[\\w]{4}){3}-[\\w]{12}" options:0 error:nil];
        NSString *uuid = [[NSUUID UUID] UUIDString];
        NSArray *matches = [headerRegex matchesInString:uuid options:0 range:NSMakeRange(0, [uuid length])];
        expect([matches count]).to.beGreaterThan(0);
    });

    it(@"should match a stub that has a UUID in a header", ^AsyncBlock {
        NSRegularExpression *headerRegex = [NSRegularExpression regularExpressionWithPattern:@"[\\w]{8}(-[\\w]{4}){3}-[\\w]{12}" options:0 error:nil];
        stubRequest(@"GET", fakeURL)
        .withHeaders(@{@"Accept": @"application/json", @"TraceContext":headerRegex})
        .andReturn(200).withBody(@"{\"ok\":true}");

        NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:fakeURL]];
        [request setValue:@"application/json" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Accept"];
        [request setValue:[[NSUUID UUID] UUIDString] forHTTPHeaderField:@"TraceContext"];
        [NSURLConnection sendAsynchronousRequest:request queue:[NSOperationQueue currentQueue] completionHandler:^(NSURLResponse *response, NSData *data, NSError *connectionError) {
            expect(data).to.equal(@"{\"ok\":true}".data);
            done();
        }];
    });
});

@jjohnson4014 This is because you can't put regular expressions in the header matching - you can only use regular expressions to match the URL.

OK further update on this it seems to happen with the iOS7 introduced NSURLSession dataTaskWithURL but not with the old school NSURLConnection requests.
