I’m trying to mock a fetch() that retrieves data into a component.

I’m using this as a model for mocking my fetches, but I’m having trouble getting it to work.

I’m getting this error when I run my tests: babel-plugin-jest-hoist: The module factory of 'jest.mock()' is not allowed to reference any out-of-scope variables.

Is there a way I can have these functions return mock data instead of actually trying to make real API calls?

Code

utils/getUsers.js

Returns users with roles mapped into each user.

const getUsersWithRoles = rolesList =>
  fetch(`/users`, {
    credentials: "include"
  }).then(response =>
    response.json().then(d => {
      const newUsersWithRoles = d.result.map(user => ({
        ...user,
        roles: rolesList.filter(role => user.roles.indexOf(role.iden) !== -1)
      }));
      return newUsersWithRoles;
    })
  );

component/UserTable.js

const UserTable = () => {
  const [users, setUsers] = useState([]);
  useEffect(() => {
    getTableData();
  }, []);

  const getTableData = () => {
    new Promise((res, rej) => res(getRoles()))
      .then(roles => getUsersWithRoles(roles))
      .then(users => {
        setUsers(users);
      });
  };
  return (...)
};
