Mocking VueAxios functions for unit testing
I am using the VueAxios wrapper for HTTP request in my Vue.js app.
Here is a simplified version of my API service:
//api.service.js
import Vue from "vue";
import axios from "axios";
import VueAxios from "vue-axios";
const ApiService = {
init()
Vue.use(VueAxios, axios);
,
get(resource, id = "")
return Vue.axios.get(`$resource/$id`);
,
And my (simplified and failing) API test:
// api.spec.js
import Vue from "vue";
import axios from "axios";
import VueAxios from "vue-axios";
import createLocalVue from "@vue/test-utils";
jest.mock("axios");
jest.mock("vue-axios"); // Not sure if I need one or both or neither.
describe("the running store actions test", () => {
const localVue = createLocalVue();
localVue.use(VueAxios, axios);
test("that a resource is fetched via the API", async () =>
Vue.axios.get.mockImplementationOnce(() =>
Promise.resolve(
data:
)
);
...
// Some test calling the get() method in api.service.js above.
);
The problem is that a get the following error when I run the test:
TypeError: Cannot read property 'get' of undefined
42 |
> 43 | Vue.axios.get.mockImplementationOnce(() =>
| ^
44 | Promise.resolve(
45 )
at Object.get (tests/unit/store/api.spec.js:43:19)
I have played around by changing the api.spec.js file to not use VueAxios and then just mocked Axios normally, e.g.,
get(resource, id = "")
return axios.get(`$resource/$id`).catch(error =>
throw new Error(`ApiService $error`);
);
,
The test then runs and passes without an issue.
However, I would like to get the test to pass using VueAxios. Any ideas will be much appreciated.
