POST, Promise never resolves

See original GitHub issue

I am doing this unit test with supertest and chai and I do it in these two way

it("POST /novedades/api/postSolicitudVacaciones (servicio de guardar una solicitud de vacaciones)  ", (done) => {
    request(app)
        .post("/novedades/api/postSolicitudVacaciones")
        .send({
            dtFechaInicio: "2021-07-30",
            intNumeroDiasDisfrutar: 3,
            intNumeroDiasCompensar: 0,
            arrAprobadores: "scardonas@domain.com"
        })
        .set({ token: token, Accept: "application/json" })
        .expect((res) => {
            console.log(res)
            expect(res.body).to.have.property("error", false);
        })
        .expect(200)
        .end((err) => {
            if (err) throw new Error(err)
        })
})

it("POST /novedades/api/postSolicitudVacaciones (servicio de guardar una solicitud de vacaciones)  ", async() => {

        await agent
            .post("/novedades/api/postSolicitudVacaciones")
            .send({
                dtFechaInicio: "2021-07-30",
                intNumeroDiasDisfrutar: 3,
                intNumeroDiasCompensar: 0,
                arrAprobadores: "scardonas@domain.com"
            })
            .set({ token: token, Accept: "application/json" })
            .expect("Content-Type", /json/)
            .expect(200)
            .then((err, res) => {
                console.log(res.body);
                expect(res.body).to.have.property("error", false);
            })
 });

And in both cases I always get the error 'Timeout of 2000ms exceeded. For async tests and hooks, ensure “done ()” is called; if returning a Promise, ensure it resolves. ’ and the test performs the unit test well because he saves in BD

Make sure the actual API works. Was having the same problem with an exception uncatched inside main application. Would not show in log so I was thinking all this async stuff was going wrong.

Finally I had to resolve to use supertest like this for async await to work. const supertestInstance = require(‘supertest’)(“http://localhost:3000/api”);

Otherwise if you consume the app directly the async calls are SLOW/crawled by something which I did not find. With a long enough timeout I could see the post async test beeing receive minutes later on the supertest logs.
