`file` and `data` have no value... so that's why you get the
ReferenceError. Understanding why you're trying to stub the filesystem
method would help (i.e. - what other code are you trying to test that is
causing you to need to stub the fs), but from what I can tell given the
context here you can simplify this a lot.
.callsFake takes a function, so you can just do this:
const writeImageStub =
sinon
.stub(fs, 'writeFileSync')
.callsFake(() => '/static/images/image.jpg')
What you have is more of a mock than a stub, because you're returning
pre-configured data AND attempting to verify behavior as part of the fake.
I generally avoid mocks.
Also, you shouldn't need to verify/expect things as part of a core module
or even 3rd party modules. You should just verify the code *you* own. Does
that help?
