root-level hooks are not being called

[tsdaita]

Mocha's root level hooks, ie having before/beforeEach in a different file outside of the describe are not getting called.

tests/sample.js

require('./base');

describe('An afterEach hook', function () {
  afterEach(function () {
    console.log('afterEach run!');
  });

  before(function () {
    console.log('before run!');
  });

  describe('in some nested contexts', function () {
    before(function () {
      console.log('nested before run!');
    });

    it('runs after this block', function () {
      console.log('nested it run!');
    });

    it('runs again after this block', function () {
      console.log('second nested it run!');
    });
  });
});

tests/base.js

before(function hello() {
  console.log('base : before run!');
});

When executing through mocha the before function from base is called

%:mocha runtime/tests/sample.js
base : before run!
An afterEach hook
before run!
in some nested contexts
nested before run!
nested it run!
✓ runs after this block
afterEach run!
second nested it run!
✓ runs again after this block
afterEach run!

2 passing (9ms)

but executing the same through mocha-parallel it seems to ignore the file.

%: node_modules/.bin/mocha-parallel-tests tests/
An afterEach hook
before run!
nested before run!
in some nested contexts
nested it run!
afterEach run!
✓ runs after this block
second nested it run!
✓ runs again after this block
afterEach run!

2 passing (27ms)

Thanks for posting issue. Will take a look at it soon.

Seems interesting: if you move your base.js code into sampe.js, everything works fine.

mocha-parallel-tests=0.5.1 has the fix @tsdaita

Hi,
Apologies for the late response. Thanks for taking a look and fixing it.
Appears this is partially fixed. When passing the individual file ( node_modules/.bin/mocha-parallel-tests tests/sample.js) it seems to work.
But if we give just the dir path (either node_modules/.bin/mocha-parallel-tests tests/ or node_modules/.bin/mocha-parallel-tests tests/*.js) it does not seem to call the root level hooks.
