I didn't really know how to title this post, but I was hoping there would be a more efficient way to do things than what I am using currently.I have a project and the file structure for my code and then my tests is, starting from the root. bot/MYCODE and then tests/MYCODE I have designed it so that the tests are arranged as a mirror to the arrangement of files in the bot folder. So the test file for bot/utilities.js is located at tests/utilities.js This is preferably how I would like to do things, as I am building my bot file with docker and having tests in the bot folder adds unnecessary bloat. This has caused an issue for me, in the file tests/utilities.js, I don't want to have to reference the other file like this.require(../bot/utilities.js) Although this seems painless at the top level of the tests directory, once I work my way down to a file, for example tests/handlers/somefolder/somefile.js I will end up having to write code that looks like this.require('../../../../bot/handlers/somefolder/somefile.js') which is obviously less than ideal. So is there a way I can configure node to detect this file structure, therefore letting my write something just like.require('somefile.js') or evenrequire('somefile') Thanks in advance, any help would be appreciated.
