# referee-sinon

Sinon.JS and the referee assertion library in one package.


## Usage

```shell
npm install @sinonjs/referee-sinon --save-dev
```

Note that you don't need to install `@sinonjs/referee` or `sinon`.

```js
const referee = require("@sinonjs/referee-sinon");

const assert = referee.assert
const refute = referee.refute
const sinon = referee.sinon
```

Or, [if you can make use][compat] of [destructuring assignments][mdn]:

```js
const { assert, refute, sinon } = require("@sinonjs/referee-sinon");
```

## Sinon

The exposed `sinon` object is the full Sinon.JS API as [documented on the Sinon.JS homepage](http://sinonjs.org).

## Assertions

The descriptions are for `assert`, but the corresponding failure messages for `refute` are also mentioned. For refute the behaviour is exactly opposite.

### `called()`

```js
assert.called(spy)
```

Fails if the `spy` has never been called.

```js
var spy = this.spy();

assert.called(spy); // Fails

spy();
assert.called(spy); // Passes

spy();
assert.called(spy); // Passes
```
