id: mongodb
title: Using with MongoDB
---

With the [Global Setup/Teardown](Configuration.md#globalsetup-string) and
[Async Test Environment](Configuration.md#testenvironment-string) APIs, Jest can
work smoothly with [MongoDB](https://www.mongodb.com/).

## A jest-mongodb example

The basic idea is to:

1. Spin up in-memory mongodb server
2. Export a global variable with mongo URI
3. Write tests for queries / aggregations using a real database ✨
4. Shut down mongodb server using Global Teardown

Here's an example of the GlobalSetup script

```js
// setup.js
const MongodbMemoryServer = require('mongodb-memory-server');

const MONGO_DB_NAME = 'jest';
const mongod = new MongodbMemoryServer.default({
instance: {
dbName: MONGO_DB_NAME
},
binary: {
version: '3.2.19'
}
});

module.exports = function() {
global.__MONGOD__ = mongod;
global.__MONGO_DB_NAME__ = MONGO_DB_NAME;
};
```

Then we need a custom Test Environment for puppeteer

Should this say "for Mongo"?


```js
// mongo-environment.js
class MongoEnvironment extends NodeEnvironment {
constructor(config) {
super(config);
}

async setup() {
console.log('Setup MongoDB Test Environment');

this.global.__MONGO_URI__ = await global.__MONGOD__.getConnectionString();
this.global.__MONGO_DB_NAME__ = global.__MONGO_DB_NAME__;

await super.setup();
}

async teardown() {
console.log('Teardown MongoDB Test Environment');

await super.teardown();
}

runScript(script) {
return super.runScript(script);
}
}
```

Finally we can shut down mongodb server

```js
// teardown.js
module.exports = async function() {
await global.__MONGOD__.stop();
};
```

With all the things set up, we can now write our tests like this:

```js
// test.js
const {MongoClient} = require('mongodb');

let connection;
let db;

beforeAll(async () => {
connection = await MongoClient.connect(global.__MONGO_URI__);
db = await connection.db(global.__MONGO_DB_NAME__);
});

afterAll(async () => {
await db.close();
});

it('should aggregate docs from collection', async () => {
const files = db.collection('files');

await files.insertMany([
{type: 'Document'},
{type: 'Video'},
{type: 'Image'},
{type: 'Document'},
{type: 'Image'},
{type: 'Document'}
]);

const topFiles = await files
.aggregate([{$group: {_id: '$type', count: {$sum: 1}}}, {$sort: {count: -1}}])
.toArray();

expect(topFiles).toEqual([
{_id: 'Document', count: 3},
{_id: 'Image', count: 2},
{_id: 'Video', count: 1}
]);
});
```

Note: you may need to modify test script to run jest sequentially, like that:
`jest --runInBand --forceExit`.

forceExit should not be necessary unless the db is not clean up properly - which it should be.

Yup? We cannot advice that in a tutorial, that's just an escape hatch

Hmm, I added this at the very beginning, might be not needed anymore, let me see

Thx, found the problem and fixed, no need for --forceExit now
