Describe block with async function behaving weirdly #2975
Description
Mocha 3.5
Node 8.4
describe('Test Suite 1', async function(){
let email = await faker.internet.email();
it('should print email', function(){
email.should.not.be.a('string')
)}
})
Running this test should give
Test Suite 1
✓should print email
But its giving
0 passing
Also modifying the above code to
describe('Test Suite 1', async function(){
let email;
it('should print email', async function(){
email = await faker.internet.email()
email.should.not.be.a('string')
)}
})
Runs the test but doesn't print the name of describe i.e Test Suite 1
✓should print email
Removing the async from describe and putting it in it works fine
describe('Test Suite 1', function(){
it('should print email',async function(){
let email = await faker.internet.email();
email.should.not.be.a('string')
)}
})
Test Suite 1
✓should print email
Also .only and .skip do not work when async function is included in the describe block
