feat(mocha-to-node-test-runner) : Migrate Mocha v8 tests to Node.js test runner (v22, v24+) #313

Xstoudi · 2025-12-22T21:39:39Z

Should fix #103

AugustinMauroy

Oh nice that really cool !

Few points that can be improved:

md format on readme
little bit of JSdoc
small missing unit test

utils/src/is-esm.ts

I wrote test for is-esm, let me know if you see something is missing.

I applied your recommendations then reverted two of them:

one was changing logic wrongly
replacing array.length === 0 with !array.length make it less readable, I'd prefer to avoid doing so

Let me now if there is anything else.

+		it('should return -1 when the value is not present', function() {
+			const arr = [1, 2, 3];
+			assert.strictEqual(arr.indexOf(4), -1);
+		});


maybe add an other it that use arrow function as call back
and a fonction as arg like

function myBasicTest = () => { assert(true) }

The second case will be can super complicated to migrate.
in a first time let's just have test that proof that's ins't handled and document it.
In second time (follow up pr) having systems that handle this case. The logic to catch a refercen is already furnished by the codemod context https://docs.codemod.com/jssg/semantic-analysis

Xstoudi · 2025-12-26T22:08:12Z

Let me know if anything more is required.

AugustinMauroy

LGMT ! for the code transformation part missing the removing dep you should take code from chalk-to-styletext.

recipes/mocha-to-node-test-runner/README.md

Xstoudi · 2025-12-30T18:11:09Z

Added that, let me know if something is missing.

AugustinMauroy

For me it's good ! we need to wait a second approval to land !

I think these this.skip and this.timeout handlers can be unified, looks like the same logic. what do you think?
