I am trying to test async.waterfall
by stubbing one of my functions using Sinon.js .
// functions.js
module.exports = {
// function I don't want to run
doBigThing: function() {
console.log("[doBigThing] was called");
},
// function I want to stub
myFunction: function(number, callback) {
console.log("[myFunction] was called");
doBigThing();
callback(null, number);
},
// function I want to test
waterfall: function(callback) {
return async.waterfall([
async.constant(5), // 5 just for the demo
myFunction
], callback);
}
}
And my test is:
describe('water', function() {
it ('successfully falls', function() {
// function under test
var waterfall = functions.waterfall;
var callback = function(err, number) {
expect(err).to.be.null;
expect(number).to.equal(5);
};
// I would like this stub to run instead of functions.myFunction
sinon.stub(functions, 'myFunction', function(number, callback) {
console.log("[myFunction] stub was called");
callback(null, number);
});
waterfall(callback);
// I suppose this is happening: myFunction(5, callback)
expect(functions.myFunction.withArgs(5, callback)).to.have.been.called;
expect(callback).to.have.been.called;
});
});
So the test passes, but the stub is ignored, because doBigThing
was called:
Water
✓ successfully falls
[myFunction] was called
[doBigThing] was called
Instead I would like to see
Water
✓ successfully falls
[myFunction] stub was called
I am probably missing out on something and I would appreciate your help.
You're stubbing functions
object's method myFunction
, but in waterfall
method you're calling a myFunction
function (I actually can't run your code in my environment, I get "ReferenceError: myFunction is not defined"). So this should work:
// functions.js
var functions = {
// function I don't want to run
doBigThing: function() {
console.log("[doBigThing] was called");
},
// function I want to stub
myFunction: function(number, callback) {
console.log("[myFunction] was called");
functions.doBigThing(); // CHANGE HERE
callback(null, number);
},
// function I want to test
waterfall: function(callback) {
return async.waterfall([
async.constant(5), // 5 just for the demo
functions.myFunction // CHANGE HERE
], callback);
}
};
module.exports = functions;
