The syntax is expect(something).to.match and not expect(something).should.match. See docs. Or, if you want to use should, you don't need expect, since the syntax for that is something.should.match.

The fix is therefore to change your code either as follows:

From the assertion styles#should, Chai extends each object with a should property after calling chai.should().

Which means chai will add should property to Object.prototype after calling chai.should().

The should interface extends Object.prototype to provide a single getter as the starting point for your language assertions.

Mocking request & result to have smallest unit-test possible

Asked 2021-Dec-14 at 09:12

i'm building a back-for-front applications with Express. It is exclusively called from the front via routes, then calls an external API to give back the result. Here is a sample code of the logic :

ANSWER

Answered 2021-Dec-14 at 09:12

I finaly found the solution.

I created two separated files : one for integration testing, one for unit-testing. I tweaked a bit the response from the distant server, which is now 'from distant server' instead of the "distantResponse" set in the previous message. On the controller & service, I also changed getDistantCall to two different functions getDistantCallSucces and getDistantCallError to force a resolve and a reject for integration tests.

ANSWER

Answered 2021-Nov-14 at 19:12

Looks like this is a problem of replit, everything works seamlessly if I download the files and run the server locally.

These tests were perhaps just too difficult to handle for the replit free tier server. But if I wait (5-10 minutes), the server will start listening again.

Unfortunately, I've made some edits to the link in the question, so maybe you won't be able to reproduce the error now. (these edits somehow reduced the waiting time heavily)

However, here is an older version of the project, which still has the error, but it has a different structure. Just in case anyone wants to take a look.

The problem is that you are testing a promise so your test is finished before the promise resolves (with either success or error). In order to make mocha wait for the promise you can do one of the following:

Return the promise from the mocha it block

mocha test with redis sinon stub throwing uncaught error outside suite

Asked 2021-Jul-09 at 18:44

I'm having trouble getting Sinon to mock redis correctly for unit testing. The test cases are passing but Mocha is still crashing with a redis connection error every time, and I can't get to the bottom of it. After several days of working on this and combing through Stackoverflow I still haven't been able to solve it, so it's time to ask better minds than mine.

I started with a server.ts file that will export the app, so it can be loaded for final runtime configuration externally or loaded into a test suite:

Answered 2021-Jul-09 at 18:44

I was able to answer my own question with this one (finally!) It appears that I needed to scope the creation of the redis client per request and make sure it quit in the callback when the request finished. I borrowed from the blog post above and rebuilt the redis-cache.ts file to turn the redis calls into promises another way. My new redis-cache.ts looks like this:
