ok, thanks to your links, I've managed to start writing my tests with
Mocha and have nice errors all around my code :)
but a new problem arised: how to wait for the database connection
before my tests start running?
I'm using backbone-mongodb[1] that's built on top of the native mongo
driver
I would like to purge my collection:
beforeEach(function(done){
mainapp.statusapp.Users._withCollection(function(err, collection){
if(err) done(err);
collection.remove({}, done);
})
});
and this is called in my main app code
var db = new Db({
name: 'test',
host: '127.0.0.1',
port: 27017
});
db.on('database', function(status){
var error = status == 'open' ? null : status;
if (error) throw 'Could not connect to database';
else {
statusapp.Users.fetch({
error: function(err) {
throw 'Could not fetch users';
},
success: function(results) {
console.log('Initial fetch success');
}
});
}
})
unfortunately putting all my tests inside a db.on call did not work,
as the callback would have been called by the time the mocha quit
