Yes, Mocha provides some hooks that can help with cleaning up mock functions in your tests:
1. `beforeEach`/`afterEach`: These hooks are executed before and after each test case, respectively. You can use these hooks to set up and tear down your mocks.
typescript
import * as sinon from 'sinon';
import { expect } from 'chai';
import { myAsyncFunction } from './myModule';
describe('myAsyncFunction', () => {
let sandbox: sinon.SinonSandbox;
beforeEach(() => {
sandbox = sinon.createSandbox();
});
afterEach(() => {
sandbox.restore();
});
it('should return the expected value', async () => {
// Create a stub for the asynchronous function
const stub = sandbox.stub(this, 'myAsyncFunction').resolves('mocked value');
const result = await myAsyncFunction();
expect(result).to.equal('mocked value');
expect(stub).to.have.been.called;
});
});
2. `before`/`after`: These hooks are executed before and after the entire test suite, respectively. You can use these hooks to set up and tear down global mocks.
typescript
import * as sinon from 'sinon';
import { expect } from 'chai';
import { myAsyncFunction, myOtherAsyncFunction } from './myModule';
describe('myAsyncFunction', () => {
let sandbox: sinon.SinonSandbox;
before(() => {
sandbox = sinon.createSandbox();
});
after(() => {
sandbox.restore();
});
it('should return the expected value', async () => {
const stub = sandbox.stub(this, 'myAsyncFunction').resolves('mocked value');
const otherStub = sandbox.stub(this, 'myOtherAsyncFunction').resolves('other mocked value');
const result = await myAsyncFunction();
expect(result).to.equal('mocked value');
expect(stub).to.have.been.called;
expect(otherStub).to.have.been.called;
});
});
By using these hooks, you can ensure that your mocks are properly set up and torn down around your test cases, helping to maintain a clean test environment and prevent any unintended side effects between tests.
Remember that the `beforeEach`/`afterEach` hooks are executed for each test case, while the `before`/`after` hooks are executed once for the entire test suite. Choose the appropriate hooks based on the scope of your mock cleanup requirements.
