How to use async/await in a mocha before hook?

@scotty_walker 

To use async/await in a mocha before hook, you can define your before hook function as an async function and use the await keyword to wait for asynchronous operations to complete before moving on to the test cases. Here's an example:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9

before(async () => {
  await someAsyncSetupFunction();
});

describe('Your test suite', () => {
  it('should do something', () => {
    // Your test case here
  });
});

In this example, the before hook is defined as an async function using the async keyword. Inside the before hook, we use the await keyword to wait for the completion of the async setup function before proceeding to the test cases. This ensures that any asynchronous setup code is executed before running the test cases.
