How to mock for testing about fireorm HOT 4 CLOSED

Currently using this to workaround. Unfortunately it's a bit awkward because this needs to run before I import any file imports a model with the Collection annotation.

import * as fireorm from 'fireorm'
import * as MockFirebase from 'mock-cloud-firestore'

const firebase = new MockFirebase()
const firestore = firebase.firestore()
fireorm.Initialize(firestore)

from fireorm.

That's exactly the way I'm creating the unit tests with. About the MockRepository I don't have any clue about how it would look like 😄 Do you have examples/projects that I can follow?

@mamodom you're a software testing enthusiast, your opinion would be much appreciated!

Is it possible to not throw the fireorm initialization error for model annotations are imported? Possibly throw when a resulting repository is used? I'd be happy to open a PR that adds the utility above.

import * as fireorm from 'fireorm'

fireorm.Initialize(fireorm.MockFirestore)
// or
fireorm.InitializeMock()

from fireorm.

I don't think fireorm should expose either MockFirestore or InitializeMock() because internally it would have to maintain a compatible mock api of firebase-admin/firestore which falls out of the scope of the library (at least for now).

I'll check how some libraries deal with testing to see what can be implemented.

Also, here I wrote why the initialization error is important. I'm open to suggestions to implement a better flow, though.
