In one component I sent a xhr request to '/api/somecall'
I am trying to mock the HTTP request for testing purposes with MochaJS.
I went into nock but the first parameter is the domain, which cannot be fixed because we use the same app on several domains.
I though about mocking a DOM with a location.href so that the xhr would be sent to a specific domain this way in a helper at the beginning of Mocha's testing session like this (I found part of this code in the web):
// setup the simplest document possible
var doc = jsdom.jsdom('<!doctype html><html><body></body></html>', {url: "http://localhost"})
// get the window object out of the document
var win = doc.defaultView
// set globals for mocha that make access to document and window feel
// natural in the test environment
global.document = doc
global.window = win
// take all properties of the window object and also attach it to the
// mocha global object
propagateToGlobal(win)
// from mocha-jsdom https://github.com/rstacruz/mocha-jsdom/blob/master/index.js#L80
function propagateToGlobal (window) {
for (let key in window) {
if (!window.hasOwnProperty(key)) continue
if (key in global) continue
global[key] = window[key]
}
}
Unfortunately it still doesn't work when I try this afterwards:
nock('http://localhost')
.get('/apv/v2/listings/' + county)
.reply(200, responseData)
All the test return a request tiemout as before.
How could I possibly get it to work ?
