Verification null value missing
Not sure what is the root reason for the issue. Possibly file with ignored tests on describe level (investigating now). Need to be fixed. It fail entire run....

@qatechniker well if this is working okay with mocha and fails with mocha-parallel-tests, this can be an issue. Thanks for posting this, I will investigate this case a bit further.
Hey @qatechniker do you still have this issue when using xdescribes and mocha-parallel-tests?
Hey, I think it can not disappear if nobody fixed ))) I just removed this situation in my set up.
Need to create PR to this project with test to proof...
That would be great! Right now we have a test for these methods: https://github.com/mocha-parallel/mocha-parallel-tests/tree/master/test/skip-test, so I was almost sure that mocha-parallel-tests supports xdescribe as well.
I apologize if this is off-base, but I have an error that presents as the same error.
Environment:
- Node: v8.14.0
- Npm: 6.4.1
- mocha-parallel-tests: 2.0.6-alpha.3
- mocha: 5.2.0
The situation is when a before all block fails for a skipped describe block. When this happens the error comes out as:
$ $(npm bin)/mocha-parallel-tests test/skipped.js

While mocha reports correctly:
$ $(npm bin)/mocha test/skipped.js
describe block
1) "before all" hook
0 passing (9ms)
1 failing
1) describe block
"before all" hook:
AssertionError [ERR_ASSERTION]: false == true
+ expected - actual
-false
+true
at Context.before (test/skipped.js:5:5)
The minimal example to trigger this error is:
const assert = require('assert');
describe('describe block', function () {
before(function () {
assert(false);
});
describe.skip('skipped describe block', function () {
it('should never get here', function () {
assert(false);
});
});
});
I'm not familiar enough with mocha-parallel-tests to discern what might be the root of the problem. It seems that when the before all hook fails, the subprocessParseReviver gets called with the skipped test, which has a fn property that is null. This overwrites the fn on the test, and then fails. If I go into src/main/util.ts and add delete value.fn in the case of a test, the correct result happens:
$ $(npm bin)/mocha-parallel-tests test/skipped.js
describe block
1) "before all" hook
0 passing (249ms)
1 failing
1)
describe block
"before all" hook:
AssertionError [ERR_ASSERTION]: false == true
at Context.<anonymous> (test/skipped.js:5:5)
This could just be covering over the root cause, though.
any updates on this issue?

We just have a little gulp task to fix the issue in our build pipeline. Not the greatest solution, but until something is addressed here, one that works.

Have exactly the same issue.
