alfresco-collabora-online VS mocha

Thanks to Cindy PIASSALE of Jeci for various improvements and clean-ups on Collabora Online’s Alfresco integration, such as adding Collabora Online as a viewer option for supported formats, documenting the new feature on the README file, and also releasing a new version of the integration app.

Thanks to Jérémie Lesage for updating documentation and license information of Collabora Online’s Alfresco integration.

Which third-party libraries will we need: Today, there are many libraries such as Mocha and others that allow users to test code.

Does the library run in production, or is it limited to development or testing environments? Vulnerabilities in libraries like mocha or eslint can typically wait, while issues in runtime-critical libraries like express need immediate action.

Unit Testing: JUnit, Mocha, PyTest

Apart from that, there is a lot of common ground regarding testing. All three contenders support the testing tools that many of you use and love, whether it is Jest, Jasmine, and Mocha for unit testing or Cypress, Playwright, and — of course — Selenium for end-to-end testing, among others. A shallow learning curve will be ahead if you want to use these testing tools.

Mocha is a feature-rich JavaScript test framework that runs on Node.js, making asynchronous testing simple and enjoyable. It provides functions that execute in a specific order, collecting test results and offering accurate reporting.

Mocha js testing framework is widely used and maintained by a small team https://github.com/mochajs/mocha/issues/5027

Mocha is a simple and flexible JavaScript testing framework for browser and Node.js applications. Unlike other testing frameworks, it takes a minimalist approach and relies on external libraries for key tasks. It uses Sinon for handling spies, stubs, and mocks, and Chai as the assertion engine. Mocha is extensible through many plugins and can integrate with most test runners.

Introduction: Mocha is a feature-rich JavaScript testing framework that operates seamlessly with Node.js. It is especially known for its support of asynchronous testing, making it ideal for modern web applications.

Hardhat allows us to use Mocha and Chai to write tests in Javascript. To get started, navigate to the tests folder and create a new file called ethcommerce.js. Add the code below to your test file:
