Chai - Expect an object to have deep property of an array ignore order
up vote

I need to check if the payment has a property named transactions with expected values:
expect(payment).to.have.deep.property('transactions', [
TRANSACTION_ID_1,
TRANSACTION_ID_2,
]);
As the order of transactions is not specified, the test doesn't pass all the time.
How can I solve the problem without changing the test structure?
Note: I've found deep-equal-in-any-order plugin, but it seems it doesn't get any help.

Iterate through array and check if it includes each item.
[TRANSACTION_ID_1, TRANSACTION_ID_2].forEach(id => {
expect(payment).to.have.deep.property('transactions').that.includes(id);
});
If you need to check transactions is unordered array of expected IDs, then check for the length as well.
expect(payment).to.have.deep.property('transactions').that.has.lengthOf(2);
When transactions has all of the expected ids and has same length of expected ids, then it equals to the expected ids when ordered properly.

I wonder if there is any solution that doesn't require aloop

I doubt if there is. You could sort both of the arrays and assert too.
