Test Organization

Organize tests in suites and sub-suites using describe() and context(), and specify test cases using it().

"use strict";\nconst assert = require('assert');\ndescribe('Array', function() {\n  describe('#indexOf()', function() {\n    it('should return -1 when the value is not present', function() {\n      assert.equal([1, 2, 3].indexOf(4), -1);\n    });\n  });\n});

Asynchronous Testing

Support for testing asynchronous code with ease, using callbacks, promises, or async/await.

"use strict";\nconst assert = require('assert');\ndescribe('User', function() {\n  describe('#save()', function() {\n    it('should save without error', function(done) {\n      const user = new User('Luna');\n      user.save(function(err) {\n        if (err) done(err);\n        else done();\n      });\n    });\n  });\n});

Hooks

Lifecycle hooks such as before(), after(), beforeEach(), and afterEach() for setting up preconditions and clean-up after tests.

"use strict";\ndescribe('Connection', function() {\n  before(function() {\n    // runs once before the first test in this block\n  });\n\n  after(function() {\n    // runs once after the last test in this block\n  });\n\n  beforeEach(function() {\n    // runs before each test in this block\n  });\n\n  afterEach(function() {\n    // runs after each test in this block\n  });\n\n  // test cases\n});
