ts-sinon

Sinon extension providing functions to:

  • stub all object methods
  • stub interface

Prerequisites

  1. You have a version of Node.js >= v8.4.0
  2. You have installed Typescript

Installation

npm install ts-sinon

Object stubs example

Importing stubObject function:

  • import single function:
import { stubObject } from "ts-sinon";
  • import as part of sinon singleton:
import * as sinon from "ts-sinon";

const stubObject = sinon.stubObject;

Stub all object methods:

class Test {
    method() { return 'original' }
}

const test = new Test();
const testStub = stubObject<Test>(test);

testStub.method.returns('stubbed');

expect(testStub.method()).to.equal('stubbed');

Partial stub:

class Test {
    methodA() { return 'A: original' }
    methodB() { return 'B: original' }
}

const test = new Test();
const testStub = stubObject<Test>(test, ['methodA']);

expect(testStub.methodA()).to.be.undefined;
expect(testStub.methodB()).to.equal('B: original');

Stub with predefined return values:

class Test {
    method() { return 'original' }
}

const test = new Test();
const testStub = stubObject<Test>(test, { method: 'stubbed' });

expect(testStub.method()).to.equal('stubbed');

Interface stubs example

Importing stubInterface function:

  • import single function:
import { stubInterface } from "ts-sinon";
  • import as part of sinon singleton:
import * as sinon from "ts-sinon";

const stubInterface = sinon.stubInterface;

Interface stub:

interface Test {
    method(): string;
}

const testStub = stubInterface<Test>();

expect(testStub.method()).to.be.undefined;

testStub.method.returns('stubbed');

expect(testStub.method()).to.equal('stubbed');

Interface stub with predefined return values:

interface Test {
    method(): string;
}

const testStub = stubInterface<Test>({ method: 'stubbed' });

expect(testStub.method()).to.equal('stubbed');

Sinon methods

By importing 'ts-sinon' you have access to all sinon methods.

import * as sinon from "ts-sinon";

const functionStub = sinon.stub();
const spy = sinon.spy();

// etc.
