I have a series of tests i need to run in a sequential order. All the tests are asynchronous and dependent on the previous one. I am having a lot of trouble in handling the asynchronous aspect of the test.
I tried using mocha-steps, didn't work.
step is not a function
I also tried nesting a describe block inside a before() hook inside another describe block. In this situation i am making a mongoose query and assigning the data received inside another variable, where the assignment is not happening. I thought the before() block was supposed to handle this?
var token
describe("Email confirmation", function () {
before(function () {
describe("Signup test", function () {
it("Should register user and sends an email confiramtion token to registred email Id", function (done) {
agent
.post('/register')
.send({
unique_username: "xyz",
email: "xyz@gmail.com",
password: "12345"
})
.end(function (err, res) {
res.should.have.property('status', 200);
expect(res.body).to.contain.property('type')
expect(res.body).to.contain.property('msg')
// expect(res.body).to.deep.equal({});
done();
})
})
})
User.findOne({ email: "xyz@gmail.com" }, function (err, data) {
Token.findOne({ _userId: data._id }, function (err, data1) {
token = data1.token
})
})
})
it("Should verify the email Id of a registered user", function (done) {
agent
.post('/email_confirmation')
.send({
email: "xyz@gmail.com.com",
token: token
})
.end(function (err, res) {
res.should.have.property('status', 200);
expect(res.body).to.contain.property('type')
expect(res.body).to.contain.property('msg')
done();
})
}).timeout(10000)
})
Expect the before() that is "Signup test" block to execute first and then the other describe block.
