Prerequisites

  • Checked that your issue hasn't already been filed by cross-referencing issues with the faq label
  • Checked next-gen ES issues and syntax problems by using the same environment and/or transpiler configuration without Mocha to ensure it isn't just a feature that actually isn't supported in the environment in question or a bug in your code.
  • 'Smoke tested' the code to be tested by running it outside the real test suite to get a better sense of whether the problem is in the code under test, your usage of Mocha, or Mocha itself
  • Ensured that there is no discrepancy between the locally and globally installed versions of Mocha. You can find them with: node node_modules/.bin/mocha --version(Local) and mocha --version(Global). We recommend avoiding the use of globally installed Mocha.

Description

When using the --bail flag, mocha will exit with a status of 0, instead of 1, when it encounters an error in before hooks. This potentially causes CI to pass when it should fail.

Steps to Reproduce

let describe = require('mocha').describe;
let before = require('mocha').before;

describe('before-all-working', function() {
  before(function() {
    console.log('before hook');
    throw new Error('before hook error');
  });

  it('test', function() {});
});
xps:../backend-issue-965$ ./node_modules/.bin/mocha 


  before-all-working
before hook
    1) "before all" hook


  0 passing (4ms)
  1 failing

  1) before-all-working
       "before all" hook:
     Error: before hook error
      at Context.<anonymous> (test:7:11)



xps:../backend-issue-965$ echo $?
1
xps:../backend-issue-965$ ./node_modules/.bin/mocha --bail


  before-all-working
before hook

  0 passing (3ms)

    1) "before all" hook

xps:../backend-issue-965$ echo $?
0

Expected behavior: mocha exits with status 1

Actual behavior: mocha exits with status 0

Reproduces how often: 100%

Versions

  • The output of mocha --version and node node_modules/.bin/mocha --version: not globally installed / 5.1.1
  • The output of node --version: 8.11.1
  • The version and architecture of your operating system: Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS x64
  • Your shell (bash, zsh, PowerShell, cmd, etc.): bash
  • Your browser and version (if running browser tests): N/A
  • Any other third party Mocha related modules (with versions): N/A
  • The code transpiler being used: N/A
