Bubbles68265yOkay I have a question, so I know what they are but I don’t know how to write a unit test and how to implement it I to my projects and when. Is there any resources you could point me to that’ll help me with it? I haven’t found good ones

@Bubbles I also just got into them ^^
I wrote those with mocha, a TDD tool for Node.js.
suite("Danbooru", () => {
test("Danbooru blocks non-NSFW", (done) => {
danbooruCommand.content(["cute"], false).then(msg => {
assert.equal(msg.startsWith(":x: Sorry,"), true);
done();
});
});
});
This small code starts a new test category named "Danbooru" and a test named "Danbooru blocks non-NSFW".
The test executes a function, gets the return value and asserts whether it starts with ":x:Sorry,". Then it calls done() and the assert result is used as test result. -
Bubbles68265y@PrivateGER so does something in the current code call this new file that the test is in and then tests each one (if there are more than one in a file)

Not quite.
Tests are all collected in a seperate "test" directory.
mocha runs all the JS files found in it.
Tests must run completely seperate from the main code, otherwise you break the testing environment. -
Would it be at all possible to get some more insight as how you wrote your unit tests? Did you mock data?

I finally stopped being lazy and wrote 31 unit tests for my Discord bot.
Nothing is more satisfying than seeing them all pass and the GitHub workflow working without any problems. :)
