Mongoose Mocha Helper

Use a real database to do unit testing with Mocha and Mongoose

Usage

Just require the module in your tests files and pass a MongoDB. It has to be a real database, you can create one with Docker.

  var mongodb = mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/mydatabase;
  require('mongoose-mocha-helper')(mongodb);

Creating a database with Docker

You can use Docker to create a database and run your tests. If you're using docker-compose you can create a script like the following:

#!/bin/bash

docker-compose -f docker-compose-dev.yml up -d db
docker-compose -f docker-compose-dev.yml run --rm web npm test

docker-compose -f docker-compose-dev.yml stop db
docker-compose -f docker-compose-dev.yml rm -f db
