chai-as-promised should.eventually.equal not passing - mocha.js

Question

I am trying to write a minimum working example of chai-as-promised in order to understand how it is working when testing functions that return a promise.
I have the following function:
simple.test = async (input) => {
return input;
};
and the following test function:
chai.use(sinonChai);
chai.use(chaiAsPromised);
const { expect } = chai;
const should = chai.should();
describe('#Test', () => {
it('test', () => {
expect(simple.test(1)).should.eventually.equal(1);
});
});
However, testing this results in the test not passing, but in a very long error, which is pasted here: https://pastebin.com/fppecStx
Question: Is there something wrong about the code, or what seems to be the problem here?

Answer 1

First: Your mixing expect and should. If you want to use should for assertion, you don't need expect.
Second: To tell mocha that a test is async you have to either call done, return a Promise or use async/await.
const chai = require('chai');
const chaiAsPromised = require('chai-as-promised');
const sinonChai = require('sinon-chai');
const should = chai.should();
chai.use(sinonChai);
chai.use(chaiAsPromised);
// Function to test
const simple = {
test: async (input) => {
return input;
}
}
// Test
describe('#Test', () => {
it('test', () => {
return simple.test(1).should.eventually.equal(1);
});
});
