"Test mode" throws an AssertionError

[wagnermaciel]

Hi,

In part 11 of the Blaze simple-todos tutorial I am getting this error

W20180517-18:34:00.829(-4)? (STDERR) "[object Object]" reporter blew up with error:
W20180517-18:34:00.852(-4)? (STDERR) AssertionError [ERR_ASSERTION]: path must be a string

with this error message

Exception while invoking method 'mocha/runServerTests' Error: invalid reporter "[object Object]"
when attempting to run in "test mode" with

meteor test --driver-package practicalmeteor:mocha

I had the same problem which I fixed by removing practicalmeteor:mocha (i.e. meteor remove practicalmeteor:mocha and then by adding this fork instead, with the command meteor add cultofcoders:mocha. This worked for me. You could also do meteor add meteortesting:mocha, but that gave me some errors, so I went back to the cultofcoders package.

im seeing same issue: Meteor 1.7.0.1

@alewitt did you attempt my solution?

[alewitt]

No. I was just following the tutorial. Its not pressing that i have tests working right now, so i just figured i give it some time to get worked out.

switching to cultofcoders:mocha allows tests to run, but the only tests that run are in the tests/main.js, not the ones described in the tutorial (imports/api/tasks.tests.js)

It doesn't seem to pick up those at all. I even tried to put syntax errors in that file, and there were no error reports. The testing framework seems to ignore it completely.
