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

You can use Supertest with async/await by marking your test function as async and using await with Supertest requests.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

const request = require('supertest');
const app = require('./app');

describe('GET /api/users', () => {
  it('should return a list of users', async () => {
    const response = await request(app).get('/api/users');
    expect(response.status).toBe(200);
    expect(response.body).toHaveProperty('users');
  });
});

What if I want to test a POST request?

You can test a POST request similarly. Just use the .post() method and pass the data:

it('should create a new user', async () => {
  const newUser = { name: 'John Doe', email: '[email protected]' };
  const response = await request(app).post('/api/users').send(newUser);
  expect(response.status).toBe(201);
  expect(response.body).toHaveProperty('user');
});
