Chai – Testing for values in array of objects

by

This is what I usually do within the test:

var result = query_result;

var members = [];
result.forEach(function(e){
    members.push(e.title);
});

expect(members).to.have.members(['expected_title_1','expected_title_2']);

If you know the order of the return array you could also do this:

expect(result).to.have.deep.property('[0].title', 'expected_title_1');
expect(result).to.have.deep.property('[1].title', 'expected_title_2');
