'chai js expect property value empty array
I'm trying to write a unit test using chai js assertion, and was wondering how to expect arrays with zero length as values.
My Test function expect statement:
return expect(functionRetuningPromise()).to eventually.have.property("key1", []);
Console Output on running mocha:
AssertionError: expected { otherkey: otherVal, key1: [] } to have a property 'key1' of [], but got []
I have tried deep.property, key1:"[]" with no success
Solution 1:[1]
What about
return
expect(functionRetuningPromise()).to.eventually.have.property("key1").that.satisfy(function (value) {
expect(value).to.be.instanceof(Array);
expect(value).to.have.length.above(0);
return true;
})
Solution 2:[2]
This should do the trick
expect(value).to.deep.equal([]);
Solution 3:[3]
I think this is a little plainer
expect( value ).to.be.an( "array" ).that.is.empty
