Get Mongo Collection in Meteor velocity test

问题

Currently I'm working on a meteor project, in which I wrote some packages. Now I have a problem when writing test codes for these packages. I used mike:mocha in Velocity.

In package I've created a Collection using:

    TestCollect = new Meteor.Collection("testCollect");

and in my package/server.js

    if(TestCollect.find().count == 0){
        TestCollect.insert({});
    }
    ... ／＊I want to make sure there is only doc in this collection */

Then I export this variable in package.js

    api.export("TestCollect");

and in my server test code, it's like:

    it("should contain only one doc", function(){
            console.log(TestCollect.find());
            chai.assert.equal(1, TestCollect.find().count(), "but it has " + TestCollect.find().count() + " docs");
        });

To my surprise, seems the db in the test code is totally different from the db in my packages. I guess velocity use a mirror mongo to run test codes.

In fact, the console.log(TestCollect.find()); in my test code returns:

    I20150102-08:44:13.293(8)?   _synchronousCursor: null }

Then how should I get this test code to work? Any way to connect to the "real" mongo？

You are right that tests run inside the mirror and do so on a different database.

What you should do in each test is setup the database you need for that test. So when you're writing a test you should perform some steps that are similar to this (untested code):

describe('the suite'), function() {

    beforeEach(function() {
       myCollection.remove({});
    });

    it('should add something to some document', function() {
        // SETUP
        myCollection.insert({some: "document"});

        // EXECUTE
        myCode.addSomething({hello: "world"});

        // VERIFY
        myDoc = myCollection.find({some: "document"});
        assert(myDoc.hello === "world");
    }

});

I had a very similar problem, and fixed in when I realized that I wasn't using Meteor.subscribe. I suspect if you add the following code to your client: Meteor.subscribe("TestCollect") mike:mocha will work correctly.
