[node:test] How to mocking function exported with named export

[Lycolia]

Details

I'm trying to mock a function that has been exported using named export, but I'm not able to do it successfully.
How can I mock it properly?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Expected Behavior

test passing

Actual Behavior

Example code

Implementation Code

export const validateFoo = () => {
  console.log('foo');
};

export const hoge = () => {
  validateFoo();
};

Test Code

import { describe, it } from 'node:test';
import assert from 'node:assert';
import * as HogeObj from './hoge';
import { hoge } from './hoge';

describe('example', () => {
  it('validateFoo', (t) => {
    t.mock.method(HogeObj, 'validateFoo', () => {
      throw new Error('foo');
    });

    assert.throws(() => {
      hoge();
    }, Error);
  });
});

Operating system

Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS

Scope

test

Module and version

• node:test
• node:assert

I have the same problem, I looked at this issue and apparently the native node test does not have support for mocking modules #4298

[mehulkar]

Odd note, when I do:

import fs from 'node:fs'
import * as blah from './blah';

test('my test', (t) => {
  // this works
  t.mock.method(fs, 'writeFileSync', () => /* */);

  // this doesn't work
  t.mock.method(blah, 'someExport', () => /* */);
});

I'm guessing this is either because I'm using a loader (node --loader tsx mytest.test.ts), or the node:fs module is actually exporting an object, whereas blah.ts just has export function thing() {}.

In any case, I would also like to be able to mock exports from local files
