Why does Mocha require a times-loop for complex file testing?

Question

JavaScript

Hey!
I want to test files in all directories using the command mocha ../**/*.test.js. I get an error in the console

> [email protected] test-module /home/richard/Documents/dev/server/test
> mocha ../**/*.test.js

module.js:544
    throw err;
    ^

Error: Cannot find module 'times-loop'                                     ---> ????????

But if you check 1 file at a time , for example with the command mocha ../graphql/index.test.js, then everything will work.

Answer 1

In the stack trace of the error, it is quite clear that the pattern "../**/*.test.js" contains the file ".../dev/server/test/ node_modules /assert-err/test/assert-err .test .js ". Which is part of another module, and most likely has its own dependencies.
