# Sinon.JS Assertions for Chai **Sinon–Chai** provides a set of custom assertions for using the [Sinon.JS][] spy, stub, and mocking framework with the [Chai][] assertion library. You get all the benefits of Chai with all the powerful tools of Sinon.JS. Instead of using Sinon.JS's assertions: ```javascript sinon.assertCalledWith(mySpy, "foo"); ``` or awkwardly trying to use Chai's `should` or `expect` interfaces on spy properties: ```javascript mySpy.calledWith("foo").should.be.ok; expect(mySpy.calledWith("foo")).to.be.ok; ``` you can say ```javascript mySpy.should.have.been.calledWith("foo"); expect(mySpy).to.have.been.calledWith("foo"); ``` ## Assertions All of your favorite Sinon.JS assertions made their way into Sinon–Chai. We show the `should` syntax here; the `expect` equivalent is also available. <table> <thead> <tr> <th>Sinon.JS property/method</th> <th>Sinon–Chai assertion</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>called</td> <td>spy.should.have.been.called</td> </tr> <tr> <td>callCount</td> <td>spy.should.have.callCount(n)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>calledOnce</td> <td>spy.should.have.been.calledOnce</td> </tr> <tr> <td>calledTwice</td> <td>spy.should.have.been.calledTwice</td> </tr> <tr> <td>calledThrice</td> <td>spy.should.have.been.calledThrice</td> </tr> <tr> <td>calledBefore</td> <td>spy1.should.have.been.calledBefore(spy2)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>calledAfter</td> <td>spy1.should.have.been.calledAfter(spy2)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>calledWithNew</td> <td>spy.should.have.been.calledWithNew</td> </tr> <tr> <td>alwaysCalledWithNew</td> <td>spy.should.always.have.been.calledWithNew</td> </tr> <tr> <td>calledOn</td> <td>spy.should.have.been.calledOn(context)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>alwaysCalledOn</td> <td>spy.should.always.have.been.calledOn(context)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>calledWith</td> <td>spy.should.have.been.calledWith(...args)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>alwaysCalledWith</td> <td>spy.should.always.have.been.calledWith(...args)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>calledWithExactly</td> <td>spy.should.have.been.calledWithExactly(...args)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>alwaysCalledWithExactly</td> <td>spy.should.always.have.been.calledWithExactly(...args)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>calledWithMatch</td> <td>spy.should.have.been.calledWithMatch(...args)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>alwaysCalledWithMatch</td> <td>spy.should.always.have.been.calledWithMatch(...args)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>returned</td> <td>spy.should.have.returned(returnVal)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>alwaysReturned</td> <td>spy.should.have.always.returned(returnVal)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>threw</td> <td>spy.should.have.thrown(errorObjOrErrorTypeStringOrNothing)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>alwaysThrew</td> <td>spy.should.have.always.thrown(errorObjOrErrorTypeStringOrNothing)</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> For more information on the behavior of each assertion, see [the documentation for the corresponding spy methods][spymethods]. These of course work on not only spies, but individual spy calls, stubs, and mocks as well. Note that you can negate any assertion with Chai's `.not`. E. g. for `notCalled` use `spy.should.have.not.been.called`. For `assert` interface there is no need for this library. You can install [Sinon.JS assertions][sinonassertions] right into Chai's `assert` object with `expose`: ```javascript var chai = require("chai"); var sinon = require("sinon"); sinon.assert.expose(chai.assert, { prefix: "" }); ``` ## Examples Using Chai's `should`: ```javascript "use strict"; var chai = require("chai"); var sinon = require("sinon"); var sinonChai = require("sinon-chai"); chai.should(); chai.use(sinonChai); function hello(name, cb) { cb("hello " + name); } describe("hello", function () { it("should call callback with correct greeting", function () { var cb = sinon.spy(); hello("foo", cb); cb.should.have.been.calledWith("hello foo"); }); }); ``` Using Chai's `expect`: ```javascript "use strict"; var chai = require("chai"); var sinon = require("sinon"); var sinonChai = require("sinon-chai"); var expect = chai.expect; chai.use(sinonChai); function hello(name, cb) { cb("hello " + name); } describe("hello", function () { it("should call callback with correct greeting", function () { var cb = sinon.spy(); hello("foo", cb); expect(cb).to.have.been.calledWith("hello foo"); }); }); ``` ## Installation and Usage ### Node Do an `npm install sinon-chai` to get up and running. Then: ```javascript var chai = require("chai"); var sinonChai = require("sinon-chai"); chai.use(sinonChai); ``` You can of course put this code in a common test fixture file; for an example using [Mocha][], see [the Sinon–Chai tests themselves][fixturedemo]. ### AMD Sinon–Chai supports being used as an [AMD][] module, registering itself anonymously (just like Chai). So, assuming you have configured your loader to map the Chai and Sinon–Chai files to the respective module IDs `"chai"` and `"sinon-chai"`, you can use them as follows: ```javascript define(function (require, exports, module) { var chai = require("chai"); var sinonChai = require("sinon-chai"); chai.use(sinonChai); }); ``` ### `<script>` tag If you include Sinon–Chai directly with a `<script>` tag, after the one for Chai itself, then it will automatically plug in to Chai and be ready for use. Note that you'll want to get the latest browser build of Sinon.JS as well: ```html <script src="chai.js"></script> <script src="sinon-chai.js"></script> <script src="sinon.js"></script> ``` ### Ruby on Rails Thanks to [Cymen Vig][], there's now [a Ruby gem][] of Sinon–Chai that integrates it with the Rails asset pipeline!
