Hi @Yuri. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
Based on the information provided in your question and the knowledge sources, I can offer some insights into why your test might be showing incorrect values for the cookie.
The issue appears to be related to how you're mocking the
useCookie
composable in your tests. Let's break it down:
1. Mocking useCookie
: You're using mockNuxtImport
to mock the useCookie
composable. This is the correct approach for mocking Nuxt's auto-imports in tests, as described in the Nuxt documentation (https://nuxt.com/docs/getting-started/testing#mocknuxtimport).
2. Multiple mocks in the same file: However, you're calling mockNuxtImport
for useCookie
multiple times in the same test file. As the documentation states:
This means that only the first mock (in yourmockNuxtImport
can only be used once per mocked import per test file. It is actually a macro that gets transformed tovi.mock
andvi.mock
is hoisted, as described here (https://vitest.dev/api/vi.html#vi-mock).
beforeEach
block) is likely taking effect, and the subsequent mocks in your individual tests are not working as expected.
3. Solution: To change the mock implementation between tests, you should use vi.hoisted
as suggested in the documentation (https://nuxt.com/docs/getting-started/testing#mocknuxtimport). Here's how you could modify your test:
This approach allows you to change the mock implementation between tests while still using mockNuxtImport
correctly.
Additionally, make sure you're using the latest version of Nuxt and its testing utilities, as there have been several fixes and improvements related to useCookie
and testing, as evidenced by various pull requests (PR #25598 (https://github.com/nuxt/nuxt/pull/25598), PR #25255 (https://github.com/nuxt/nuxt/pull/25255)).
If you're still experiencing issues after making these changes, you might want to consider using the refreshCookie
utility to manually refresh the cookie value in your tests, as mentioned in the Nuxt documentation (https://nuxt.com/docs/api/utils/refresh-cookie).
