Sinon 如何存根方法以对异步函数进行单元测试

Question

I am trying to write a unit test for an async function using mocha and sinon.js

Below is my test case

  describe('getOperations', function () {
    let customObj, store, someObj
    beforeEach(function () {
      someObj = {
        id: '-2462813529277062688'
      }
      store = {
        peekRecord: sandbox.stub().returns(someObj)
      }
    })
    it('should be contain obj and its ID', function () {
      const obj = getOperations(customObj, store)
      expect(obj).to.eql(someObj)
    })
  })

Below is the definition of the async function I am testing.

async function getOperations (customObj, store) {
  const obj = foo(topLevelcustomObj, store)
  return obj
}

function foo (topLevelcustomObj, store) {
    return store.peekRecord('obj', 12345)
}

The test case fails as the promise being return is rejected with a message

TypeError: store.query is not a function at Object._callee$.

The code I am testing is not calling store.query anywhere and also I have stubbed store.peekRecord also so not sure how it is getting called.

Your getOperations function use async syntax so that you need to use async/await in your test case. And, it works fine.

Eg index.ts

export async function getOperations(customObj, store) {
  const obj = foo(customObj, store);
  return obj;
}

export function foo(customObj, store) {
  return store.peekRecord("obj", 12345);
}

index.test.ts :

import { getOperations } from "./";
import sinon from "sinon";
import { expect } from "chai";

describe("59639661", () => {
  describe("#getOperations", () => {
    let customObj, store, someObj;
    beforeEach(function() {
      someObj = {
        id: "-2462813529277062688",
      };
      store = {
        peekRecord: sinon.stub().returns(someObj),
      };
    });
    it("should pass", async () => {
      const obj = await getOperations(customObj, store);
      expect(obj).to.deep.eq(someObj);
    });
  });
});

Unit test result with 100% coverage:

  59639661
    #getOperations
      ✓ should pass


  1 passing (14ms)
