Allowed arbitrary type definition when passing vars in testing

[lobo-tuerto]

Environment

• Elixir version (elixir -v): 1.6.4
• Absinthe version (mix deps | grep absinthe): 1.4.12
• Testing Framework: ExUnit

Expected behavior

I expected to see an error complaining about the incorrect type being supplied.

Actual behavior

The following piece of code is running without problems:

@query """
query ($filter: Boolean) {
  users(filter: $filter) {
    email
  }
}
"""
@variables %{filter: %{email: "admin"}}
test "users field returns a list of users filtered by email, using a variable" do
  conn = post(build_conn(), "/api", query: @query, variables: @variables)

  assert json_response(conn, 200) == %{
           "data" => %{
             "users" => [
               %{"email" => "admin@email.com"}
             ]
           }
         }
end

Note that:

query ($filter: Boolean) {

Should be:

query ($filter: UserFilter) {

It seems to be working with whatever type you pass to it, as long as the type exists.
If the type doesn't exist it complains accordingly.

Relevant Schema/Middleware Code

input_object :user_filter do
  field(:name, :string)
  field(:email, :string)
  field(:is_active, :boolean)
  field(:type, :user_type)
end

field :users, list_of(:user) do
  arg(:filter, :user_filter)
  # ...

Just tried it out in GraphiQL and it also works without problems.

Although I get a red line that indicates there is a problem with the type, but the query succeeds nonetheless.

Not entirely sure when this was fixed, but I just added a test case to master showing that this issue seems to be fixed. 392426b
