sinon未检测到内部承诺中的私有功能

Question

i am quit new to sinon and rewire. I am trying to check if private function was called with in promise. Private function stubbed is getting called, But sinon not detecting the call. below is my code snipped.

file.test.js

var fileController = rewire('./file')

var stub = sinon.stub().returns("abc")
fileController.__set__('privFunc', stub)
fileController.sampleFunc()
expect(stub).to.be.called

file.js

let otherFile = require('otherFile')

var privFunc = function(data) {

}

var sampleFunc = function() {
    otherFile.buildSomeThing.then(function(data) {
        privFunc(data)
    })
}

module.exports = {sampleFunc}

In above code snipped, privFunc is actually getting called ie. stub is getting called, But sinon not detecting call.

var privFunc = function(data) {

}

var sampleFunc = function() {
    privFunc(data)
}

module.exports = {sampleFunc}

But this above snippet works fine. ie. when private function is called directly

Your otherFile.buildSomeThing is async, you need to await it before checking if the privFunc stub has been called.

eg:

file.js

let otherFile = require('otherFile')

var privFunc = function(data) {

}

var sampleFunc = function() {
    return otherFile.buildSomeThing.then(function(data) {
        privFunc(data)
    })
}

module.exports = {sampleFunc}

file.test.js

var fileController = rewire('./file')

var stub = sinon.stub().returns("abc")
fileController.__set__('privFunc', stub)
fileController.sampleFunc().then(() => {
  expect(stub).to.have.been.called;
});

If you're using mocha, you could use something like this:

describe('file.js test cases', () => {
  let stub, reset;
  let fileController = rewire('./file');

  beforeEach(() => {
    stub = sinon.stub().returns("abc");
    reset = fileController.__set__('privFunc', stub);
  });

  afterEach(() => {
    reset();
  });

  it('sampleFunc calls privFunc', async () => {
    await fileController.sampleFunc();
    expect(stub).to.have.been.called;
  });
});
