How to unit test a Node.js module that requires other modules and how to mock the global require function?

Question

This is a trivial example that illustrates the crux of my problem:

var innerLib = require(\'./path/to/innerLib\');

function underTest() {
    return innerLi         


        

Answer 1

I use mock-require. Make sure you define your mocks before you require the module to be tested.
