无法从“date-fns”模拟 startOfToday

Question

I'm trying to mock a function from js date-fns module.

Top of my test:

import { startOfToday } from "date-fns"

During my test I try to mock:

startOfToday = jest.fn(() => 'Tues Dec 28 2019 00:00:00 GMT+0000')

Which gives me the error when I run the tests:

"startOfToday" is read-only

You can use jest.mock(moduleName, factory, options) method to mock date-fns module.

Eg

index.js :

import { startOfToday } from 'date-fns';

export default function main() {
  return startOfToday();
}

index.spec.js :

import main from './';
import { startOfToday } from 'date-fns';

jest.mock('date-fns', () => ({ startOfToday: jest.fn() }));

describe('59515767', () => {
  afterEach(() => {
    jest.resetAllMocks();
  });
  it('should pass', () => {
    startOfToday.mockReturnValueOnce('Tues Dec 28 2019 00:00:00 GMT+0000');
    const actual = main();
    expect(actual).toBe('Tues Dec 28 2019 00:00:00 GMT+0000');
  });
});

Unit test result:

 PASS  src/stackoverflow/59515767/index.spec.js (10.095s)
  59515767
    ✓ should pass (5ms)
