Stubbing with sinon in jest












0















I have all my unit tests in jests.



Keen to use sinon stubs for some tests. Can sinon be used with jest as test runner? Couldn't find much on the internet about combining these two



The problem I am trying solve is similar to the below code



const Meme = require('./Meme');

module.exports.allMemes = function(req, res) {
Meme.find({ repost: req.params.reposts }, function(err, memes) {
res.send(memes);
});
};


where Meme is a mongoose Schema and I would like to stub the Meme.find() function so that I don't have to deal with the problematic part of mongoDB return



Any guidance?

  • Yes you can use the two together. Personally I prefer to just use Jest mocks and stubs. One less dependency to manage and I have never seen anything that Sinon does that jest doesn't.

  • yes, sinon works great with jest and tends to be a bit more refined in areas such as testing calls to spies and fake timers

  • Yes. I am specially keen on sinon capacity to deal with spies. I am relatively new to unit testing. Do you have any pointers to online resources or any snippets where both sinon and jest are used at the same time. I am hoping the expect() method will be from jest and everything else will be related to sinon
