Use mocha for JS unit testing framework

  • Status: accept
  • Deciders: Arthur Lu, Marc Reta
  • Date: 11 / 12 / 22

Decision Drivers

  • Need specification on how to write unit testing assertion statements
  • Need framework to perform unit testing quickly for immediate code feedback

Considered Options

  • JUnit5
  • Jest
  • Mocha

Decision Outcome

Chosen Option: Mocha because it was significantly faster to run than Jest (1s vs 30s), and can use a variety of assertion styles unlike JUnit5.
