I'm creating an api on the node and testing using mocha, chai and the transpiler and babel
I've changed
--compilers js:babel-core/register
for
--require babel-core/register
As written in the mocha documentation link
Well, I changed it and the following error occurred:
C:\Users\Ranulfo\Desktop\noderest>npm run test-integration
> [email protected] test-integration C:\Users\Ranulfo\Desktop\noderest
> mocha --opts test/integration/mocha.opts test/integration/*.js
C:\Users\Ranulfo\Desktop\noderest\test\integration\helpers.js:1
(function (exports, require, module, __filename, __dirname) { import supertest f
rom 'supertest';
^^^^^^
SyntaxError: Unexpected token import
For more details on the code:
mocha.opts that is located at - test / integration / mocha.opts
--require test/integration/helpers.js
--reporter spec
--require babel-core/register
--slow 5000
