Truncate data during tests with knex

test.js

'use strict';

var Promise   = require('bluebird');
var knex      = require('../../src/db').knex;

var tables = [
  'organizations',
  'campaigns',
  'donors',
  'pledges',
  'payments'
];

function truncate () {
  return Promise.each(tables, function (table) {
    return knex.raw('truncate table ' + table + ' cascade');
  });
};

function seed () {
  return Promise.each(tables, function (table) {
    return knex(table).insert(require('./seeds/' + table));
  });
};

describe('Integration Tests', function () {

  beforeEach(function () {
    return truncate().then(seed);
  });

  afterEach(function () {
    return truncate();
  });

  require('require-all')(__dirname + '/specs');

});

Is not restarting identity after each truncate intentional?

Thanks for sharing your integration test code!

It is also recommended to update the test database to the latest schema before running any test:

const config = require(`${process.cwd()}/knexfile`)[process.env.NODE_ENV]
const knex = require('knex')(config)

const {MyPOJO} = require('../src/MyPOJO')
const {Model} = require('objection')

beforeAll(async done => {
  await knex.migrate.latest()
  await knex(MyPOJO.tableName).truncate()
  Model.knex(knex)
  done()
})
