Change URL in unit-test with useRoute
I need to change the URL to another, for example '/catalog/', before rending wrapper2. How can I do it?

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 change the URL in your unit test before rendering
wrapper2
, you can modify the mocked useRoute
function to return a different path. Here's how you can achieve this:
In this modified version, we've made the following changes:
1. We import vi
from Vitest to use its mocking capabilities Stack Overflow Post > How to change computed image src property to another one based on the current page loaded, using Vue 3 and Nuxt? Part 2 (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77848758).
2. We create a mocked useRoute
function using vi.fn()
.
3. We use this mocked function in our mockNuxtImport
call for useRoute
.
4. Before creating wrapper2
, we use useRouteMock.mockReturnValue()
to change the returned path to '/catalog/'.
This approach allows you to dynamically change the mocked route for different parts of your test. The useRoute
composable will now return the new path when wrapper2
is created, simulating a different URL.
Remember that this method of mocking and changing routes is specific to unit testing in Nuxt 3 using @nuxt/test-utils
. For end-to-end testing or other scenarios, different approaches might be necessary Docs > Getting-started > Testing > Unit Testing > 🛠️ Helpers (https://nuxt.com/docs/getting-started/testing#%EF%B8%8F-helpers).
