Vitest and useCookie
How I can mock cookie set ? I want to check two scenarios:
1. CookieLayoutBannerTopIsHidden is TRUE and banner is not showing
2. CookieLayoutBannerTopIsHidden is FALSE and banner not showing

Hi @Yuri. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
To mock the
useCookie
composable in your Vitest tests for Nuxt, you can use the mockNuxtImport
helper provided by Nuxt's test utils. Here's how you can set up your tests for the two scenarios you described:
In this setup:
1. We import the necessary Vitest functions and the mockNuxtImport
helper.
2. We use beforeEach
to reset all mocks before each test, ensuring a clean slate.
3. For each scenario, we use mockNuxtImport
to mock the useCookie
composable, returning an object with a value
property set to either true
or false
.
Note that mockNuxtImport
can only be used once per mocked import per test file, as mentioned in the Nuxt documentation (https://nuxt.com/docs/getting-started/testing#mocknuxtimport). If you need to change the mock implementation between tests, you can use vi.hoisted
as described in the documentation.
Remember to implement the actual test logic and assertions based on your specific component and banner implementation.
Also, keep in mind that for end-to-end testing, it's generally recommended to test user-visible behavior rather than implementation details, as mentioned in this Stack Overflow post (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/78731451). You might want to consider testing the actual visibility of the banner in the UI rather than mocking the cookie directly.
