Using nock to mimic multiple couch db requests - node.js

Question

In my original function I need to make 2 requests to 2 different db's within the same couch login.
var cloudant = require('cloudant')(https://cloudant_url);
var userdb = cloudant.db.use('user');
var addrdb = cloudant.db.use('address');
function onChange(username) {
userdb.get(username, function(err,resp) {
var user_id = resp.id;
addrdb.get(user_id,function(err1,resp1){
var addr = resp1.address;
});
});
};
var nockVar = function() {
nock(testCloudantDBURL)
.get('/user/jack')
.reply(200,{'id' : 123});
nock(testCloudantDBURL)
.get('/address/123')
.reply(200,{'address':'123});
};
describe('Test Cloudant Listener code' , function() {
nockVar();
it('test get scenario', function() {
onChange('jack');
});
});
With this only the first call works and I can get the id : 123. The second call on address db is not getting intercepeted.
With nock I'm able to intercept only the first call,the second call is not happening.Any pointers ?

This happens because your code is executed asynchronously and your test doesn't wait for the userdb.get and addrdb.get to finish. Easiest (not best) way to handle this is to add a done callback to your test scenario and call it as soon as your onChange function is finished. Roughly something like:
function onChange(username, done) {
userdb.get(username, function(err,resp) {
var user_id = resp.id;
addrdb.get(user_id,function(err1,resp1){
var addr = resp1.address;
done();
});
};
};
it('test get scenario', function(done) {
onChange('jack', done);
});
You might also consider working with Promises based code.
