#hardhat-mocha

This plugin integrates Mocha into Hardhat.

#Installation

This plugin is part of the Ethers+Mocha Hardhat Toolbox. If you are using that toolbox, there's nothing else you need to do.

To install this plugin, run the following command:

npm install --save-dev @nomicfoundation/hardhat-mocha

In your hardhat.config.ts file, import the plugin and add it to the plugins array:

import hardhatMocha from "@nomicfoundation/hardhat-mocha";

export default {
  plugins: [hardhatMocha],
};

#Usage

This plugin defines a new task called test mocha that runs your tests using Mocha. This task gets executed automatically when running npx hardhat test.

#Configuration

You can use the test.mocha entry in the Hardhat configuration to customize the Mocha options. For example:

export default {
  test: {
    mocha: {
      timeout: 20_000, // set the timeout for tests to 20 seconds
    },
  },
};
