connection.query is not a function

See original GitHub issue

I have a test suite that queries against a postgres running in a docker container. When I run tests using mock-knex before I run my integration tests, all those tests start failing with the following stack:

20) lib/models/Foo "before all" hook:
     TypeError: insert into "users" ("created_at", "password", "updated_at", "username") values ($1, $2, $3, $4) returning "id" - connection.query is not a function

I’m using the following hooks in mocha everywhere I run tests using mock-knex:

before(function () {
    db = knex({ client: 'postgres' });
    mockDb.mock(db);
    models = modelsFactory({ knex: db, config });
});
after(function () {
    mockDb.unmock(db);
});
beforeEach(function () {
    tracker.install();
});
afterEach(function () {
    tracker.uninstall();
});

Any idea what I should look for?

The following versions are in play:

nodejs v4.2.2
bookshelf 0.9.1
knex 0.9.0
mock-knex 0.3.0

It is likely due to unmock not functioning properly? This is a known issue that requires attention.
