在Node.js中使用Jasmine测试子进程.send

我有一个具有main-process.jschild-process.js的Node.js应用程序。

main-process.js看起来像这样:

var childProcess = require('child_process');
var job = childProcess.spawn('node', ["child-process.js"], {
  detached = true,
  stdio: ['ipc']
});

我的child-process.js执行了一些任务,并通知父进程有关其状态的信息,它使用:

exports.init = function() {
   //some processing here
   process.send({status: 'success or pending'});
}

现在我想使用jasmine-nodechild-process.js进行单元测试,但是当我从规范中调用方法init()时,jasmine-node会抛出错误:

TypeError: Object #<process> has no method 'send'

有没有办法模拟process变量?换句话说,我该如何对这种情况进行单元测试?

没有必要在process.send()中导出child-process.js功能。 您可以将process.send()放在身体的任何位置,以便与main-process.js进行交流

我已经使用Jasmine成功运行了以下代码:

main-process.js

var childProcess = require('child_process');

// set an infinite loop that keeps main-process running endlessly
setInterval(() => null, 5000)

// spawn child process
var job = childProcess.spawn('node', ["child-process.js"], {
  detached: true,
  stdio: ['ipc']
});

// listen to the events returned by child process
job.on('message', (code, signal) =>
  console.log('[MAIN] received the ff from child process:', {code, signal}, 'at', new Date())
)

// export the job object, which is an event emitter that can be tested by Jasmine pkg
module.exports = job

child-process.js

const message = {
    message: `I'm working on it...`,
    status: 'success or pending'
}

// send a message to the parent every half second
setInterval(() => process.send(message), 500)

spec.js

const main = require('../main-process')

describe('main process', () =>
    it('should receive messages from spawned child process', (done) => {
        let eventCount = 0
        main.on('message', (code, signal) => {
            console.log('[JASMINE] received the event')
            eventCount++
            if (eventCount >= 5) {
                done()
            }
        })
    })
)

输出
