I have code that loads a plugin dynamically based on environment.
Because I am using jest --coverage, and 100% coverage is required, I need to test if the plugin was loaded or not given the environment conditions set in the NODE_ENV.
All I am looking for here is how to determine if a particular plugin has been registered or not, after I compose the server object with Glue() and a manifest file that has logic to include the plugin only when NODE_ENV is not "production".
In case someone else is trying to figure this out, here is what I ended up doing:
describe('GIVEN NODE_ENV is production', () => {
describe('WHEN service is initialized', () => {
let server;
const OLD_ENV = process.env;
beforeEach(async () => {
jest.resetModules();
process.env = { ...OLD_ENV };
process.env.NODE_ENV = 'production';
server = await initialize();
});
afterEach(async () => {
process.env = OLD_ENV;
await server.stop();
server = null;
});
test('THEN swagger plugin should not be added', () => {
expect(server.registrations['hapi-swagger']).not.toBeDefined();
});
});
});

I have the following Javscript code:
const authenticationTypeMapping = (payload) => {
const { API_CONFIG } = process.env;
try {
const apiConfig = JSON.parse(API_CONFIG.toString('utf8'));
// set authenticationType to Federated for production
if (apiConfig.API_BASE_URL.includes('prd')) {
payload.authenticationTypeName = 'Federated';
// set authenticationType to Federated for dev or UAT
} else if (apiConfig.API_BASE_URL.includes('dev') || apiConfig.API_BASE_URL.includes('uat')) {
payload.authenticationTypeName = 'Basic';
}
} catch (err) {
console.log(`Failed to map authenticationType. Unable to parse Secret: ${err}`);
}
return payload;
};
I have problem to cover unit test using jesty for the code for the lines inside try block.
If statement depends on external variable "apiConfig.API_BASE_URL" of "process.env" which I don't how to represent to jest code.
it('should call authenticationTypeMapping', async () => {
const payload = mapper.authenticationTypeMapping(basicPayload);
expect(payload.authenticationTypeName).toEqual('Basic');
});
What should be added to cover the unit test?
You can set the Environment in the test and check for the same condition in the unit test as follows
it('should call authenticationTypeMapping', async () => {
process.env.API_BASE_URL = 'prd...'
expect(mapper.authenticationTypeMapping(basicPayload).authenticationTypeName).toEqual('Federated');
process.env.API_BASE_URL = 'dev...'
expect(mapper.authenticationTypeMapping(basicPayload).authenticationTypeName).toEqual('Basic');
});
Maybe you can have more than one unit tests to make things clear like one to test 'prd' and one to test 'dev'
I have created a function which basically loops over an array and create files. I'm starting to get into testing using Jest to have some extra security in place to make sure everything works however I'm experiencing some issues trying to mock the Node.js filesystem.
This is the function I wish to test - function.ts:
export function generateFiles(root: string) {
fs.mkdirSync(path.join(root, '.vscode'));
files.forEach((file) => {
fs.writeFileSync(
path.join(root, file.path, file.name),
fs.readFileSync(path.join(__dirname, 'files', file.path, file.name), 'utf-8')
);
});
}
const files = [
{ name: 'tslint.json', path: '' },
{ name: 'tsconfig.json', path: '' },
{ name: 'extensions.json', path: '.vscode' },
];
I've been reading around but can't really figure out how to test this with jest. No examples to look at. I've tried to install mock-fs which should be a simple way of getting up and running with a mock version of the Node.js FS module but I honestly don't know where to start. This is my first attempt at making a simple test - which causes an error, says 'no such file or directory' - function.test.ts:
import fs from 'fs';
import mockfs from 'mock-fs';
beforeEach(() => {
mockfs({
'test.ts': '',
dir: {
'settings.json': 'yallo',
},
});
});
test('testing mock', () => {
const dir = fs.readdirSync('/dir');
expect(dir).toEqual(['dir']);;
});
afterAll(() => {
mockfs.restore();
});
Anyone who can point me in the right direction?
Since you want to test you implementation you can try this:
import fs from 'fs';
import generateFiles from 'function.ts';
// auto-mock fs
jest.mock('fs');
describe('generateFiles', () => {
beforeAll(() => {
// clear any previous calls
fs.writeFileSync.mockClear();
// since you're using fs.readFileSync
// set some retun data to be used in your implementation
fs.readFileSync.mockReturnValue('X')
// call your function
generateFiles('/root/test/path');
});
it('should match snapshot of calls', () => {
expect(fs.writeFileSync.mock.calls).toMatchSnapshot();
});
it('should have called 3 times', () => {
expect(fs.writeFileSync).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(3);
});
it('should have called with...', () => {
expect(fs.writeFileSync).toHaveBeenCalledWith(
'/root/test/path/tslint.json',
'X' // <- this is the mock return value from above
);
});
});

I am brand new to mocha/chai and I spent 2 days trying to solve the following issue without any success (please note that the code below is just to present the concept, it is not the real one).
I have got a JS file called "api.js" in which some variables such as SERVER_URL are initialized at the top of the file through dotenv framework.
api.js :
const SERVER_URL = process.env.SERVER_URL;
async function startAPI () {
return new Promise ( (resolve, reject) => {
console.log(`${SERVER_URL}`);
resolve();
});
exports = {startAPI};
Now I have got "test.js" file in which :
test.js:
require('../api');
it('the test', async () => {
return await expect(api.startAPI()).to.be.fulfilled;
});
The problem is that SERVER_URL is undefined during the test and I cannot modify the api.js (as I am not the owner), just the test.js.
How can I run the test with the SERVER_URL variable set correctly (to process.env.SERVER_URL value from api.js) ?
Is there a solution without any refactoring ?
And if not what is the best solution ?
Experts, thanks in advance for your precious help
A way to improve testability is to use process.env.SERVER_URL instead of SERVER_URL where possible - or getServerUrl():
const getServerUrl = () => process.env.SERVER_URL;
This way process.env.SERVER_URL can be mocked at any point.
An alternative is to import module after process.env.SERVER_URL was mocked. This should involve decaching if there's more than one test that uses this module, because it won't be re-evaluated otherwise.
const decache = require('decache');
...
let originalServerUrl;
beforeEach(() => {
originalServerUrl = process.env.SERVER_URL;
});
beforeEach(() => {
process.env.SERVER_URL = originalServerUrl;
});
it('the test', async () => {
decache('../api');
process.env.SERVER_URL = '...';
const api = require('../api');
await expect(api.startAPI()).to.be.fulfilled;
});
If it's expected that there's no SERVER_URL in tests, it can be just discarded after it was mocked:
The easiest way would be just to set these variables when you run your test from CLI:
e.g. in npm scripts:
"scripts": {
"test": "SERVER_URL='http://example.com' mocha"
}
or directly from terminal:
$ SERVER_URL='http://example.com' npm test
But better solution would be mock environment variables in your tests with little refactoring. And need proxyquire to be installed. And actually async/await is not needed here.
const proxyquire = require('proxyquire').noPreserveCache() // noPreserveCache is important to always have refreshed script with new process.env.SERVER_URL in each test
const MOCKED_SERVER_URL = 'http://example.com'
describe('example', () => {
let initialServerUrl
let api
beforeEach(() => {
initialServerUrl= process.env
})
afterEach(() => {
process.env = initialServerUrl
})
it('fulfilled', () => {
process.env.USE_OTHER_CODE_PATH = MOCKED_SERVER_URL
api = proxyquire('../api', {})
return expect(api.startAPI()).to.be.fulfilled
})
it('rejected', () => {
process.env.USE_OTHER_CODE_PATH = ''
api = proxyquire('../api', {})
return expect(api.startAPI()).to.be.rejected
})
})
You can set .env variables with mocha using the following line:
env SERVER_URL=htt://api.yourserver.com/ mocha test
This way mocha knows what to expect from your process.env.SERVER_URL
I have a method that logs a message via one function in a node environment and via a different function in a browser environment. To check whether I am in a node or browser environment I use the libraries detect-node and is-browser like so:
const isNode = require('detect-node');
const isBrowser = require('is-browser');
log(level, message, data) {
if (isNode) {
this.nodeTransport.log(level, this.name, message, data);
}
if (isBrowser) {
this.browserTransport.log(level, this.name, message, data);
}
}
The variables isNode and isBrowser are set to true and false (automatically via the package) depending on, well, if I'm in a browser or in a node env.
Now I want to test this behavior using jest so I need to mock these npm packages. This is what I tried:
function setup() {
const loggerName = 'Test Logger';
const logger = new Logger(loggerName);
logger.nodeTransport = { log: jest.fn() };
logger.browserTransport = { log: jest.fn() };
logger.splunkTransport = { log: jest.fn() };
return { logger, loggerName };
}
test('it should call the the appropriate transports in a node environment', () => {
const { logger } = setup();
const message = 'message';
jest.mock('detect-node', () => true);
jest.mock('is-browser', () => false);
logger.log('error', message, []);
expect(logger.nodeTransport.log).toHaveBeenCalled();
expect(logger.browserTransport.log).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
});
test('it should call the the appropriate transports in a browser environment', () => {
const { logger } = setup();
const message = 'message';
jest.mock('detect-node', () => false);
jest.mock('is-browser', () => true);
logger.log('error', message, []);
expect(logger.nodeTransport.log).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
expect(logger.browserTransport.log).toHaveBeenCalled();
});
You see, I am using jest.mock to mock detect-node and is-browser and give it different return values. However, this just does not work. The first test is green because (I assume) Jest runs in node, but the second test fails saying
Expected mock function not to be called but it was called with:
["error", "Test Logger", "message", []]
Use .mockClear() to reset the mock calls between tests.
afterEach(() => {
logger.nodeTransport.log.mockClear();
logger.browserTransport.log.mockClear();
});
I have a service class
Service.js
class Service {
}
export default new Service();
And I am trying to provide a mock implementation for this. If I use something like this:
jest.mock('./Service', () => { ... my mock stuff });
It works fine, however I'm not able to access any variables declared outside of the mock, which is a bit limiting as I'd like to reconfigure what the mock returns, etc.
I tried this (inspired by this other StackOverflow article: Service mocked with Jest causes "The module factory of jest.mock() is not allowed to reference any out-of-scope variables" error)
import service from './Service';
jest.mock('./Service', () => jest.fn);
service.mockImplementation(() => {
return { ... mock stuff }
);
Unfortunately when I am trying to run this, I get the below error:
TypeError: _Service2.default.mockImplementation is not a function
I had same problem as #Janos, the other answers didn't help either. You could do two things :
If you need to mock only a function from Service, in your test file:
import service from './Service';
jest.mock('./Service', () => jest.fn());
service.yourFunction = jest.fn(() => { /*your mock*/ })
If you need to mock the entire Module:
Say your service.js is in javascript/utils, create a javascript/utils/_mocks_ and inside it create a service.js file, you can then mock the entire class in this file, eg:
const myObj = {foo: "bar"}
const myFunction1 = jest.fn(() => { return Promise.resolve(myObj) })
const myFunction2 = ...
module.exports = {
myFunction1,
myFunction2
}
then in your test file you just add:
jest.mock('./javascript/utils/service')
...functions exported from the mockfile will be then hit through your test file execution.
The mock is equal to jest.fn. You need to call jest.fn to create a mocked function.
So this:
jest.mock('./Service', () => jest.fn);
Should be:
jest.mock('./Service', () => jest.fn());
ran into similar issues and resolved it by using .mockImplementationOnce
jest.mock('./Service', () => jest.fn()
.mockImplementationOnce(() => {
return { ... mock stuff }
})
.mockImplementationOnce(() => {
return { ... mock other stuff }
})
);
now when you run another test it will return the second mock object.
You need to store your mocked component in a variable with a name prefixed by "mock" and make sure you return an object with a default property as you import your Service from the default in your "main.js" file.
// Service.js
class Service {
}
export default new Service();
// main.test.js (main.js contains "import Service from './Service';")
const mockService = () => jest.fn();
jest.mock('./Service', () => {
return {
default: mockService
}
});
I had similar problem, and the cause was that ".spec.js" file had an
import jest from "jest-mock";
After removing this line, it worked.
My mistake was that I was resetting the mock before each test. If you do that, be sure to reconfigure the mock implementation.
For example, change this:
let value;
let onPropertyChange: OnPropertyChangeCallback = jest.fn((changes: any) => {
value = changes["testValue"];
});
const user = userEvent.setup();
beforeEach(() => {
jest.resetAllMocks();
});
to this:
let value;
let onPropertyChange: OnPropertyChangeCallback;
const user = userEvent.setup();
beforeEach(() => {
jest.resetAllMocks();
onPropertyChange = jest.fn((changes: any) => {
value = changes["testValue"];
});
});
