how can I write unit test to my meteor methods?

Question

I found it a little complicated, and more complicated if I wrote my meteor methods in /lib folder, that I want is to test from server test folder my methods (unit test), but stub this.userId and also debugging or showing logs in server side does not help too much.

I was having too much problems with it, I'm using mochajs with velocity, does anyone would help me please? is someone know how can I write the units to meteor methods?

Mocha doesn't support unit tests, only Jasmine does currently. This is an example of how you would write a unit test in Jasmine for the server and use userId.

  it("should return premium content to logged in users", function () {

// SETUP
var thisContext = {
  userId : true
};

var expectedCursor = 'chapter_cursor1';
var _query = true, _modifiers = true;
Chapters.find = function(query, modifiers) {
  _query = query;
  _modifiers = modifiers;
  return expectedCursor;
};

// EXECUTE
var actualCursor = Meteor.publishFunctions['chapters'].apply(thisContext);

// VERIFY
expect(actualCursor).toBe(expectedCursor);
expect(_query).toBe(undefined);
expect(_modifiers).toBe(undefined);

});
