How do I use Mocha with async/await in my tests?

You can use async/await in Mocha by marking your test function as async. Here's a simple example.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

const assert = require('assert');
const myAsyncFunction = require('./myAsyncFunction');

describe('My Async Function', function() {
  it('should return the correct value', async function() {
    const result = await myAsyncFunction();
    assert.strictEqual(result, 'expected value');
  });
});

What if I want to test for errors?

You can use try/catch blocks within your async test to handle errors. Here's how:

it('should throw an error', async function() {
  try {
    await myAsyncFunctionThatThrows();
    assert.fail('Expected error not thrown');
  } catch (err) {
    assert.strictEqual(err.message, 'expected error message');
  }
});
