How to run a single test with Mocha?

Question

I use Mocha to test my JavaScript stuff. My test file contains 5 tests. Is that possible to run a specific test (or set of tests) rather than all the tests in the file?

Answer 1

Consolidate all your tests in one test.js file & your package json add scripts as:

  "scripts": {
  "api:test": "node_modules/.bin/mocha --timeout 10000 --recursive api_test/"
},

Type command on your test directory:

npm run api:test
