We can also use the chai-http for post requests in Mocha

below is My Solution

var chai = require('chai'), chaiHttp = require('chai-http');
chai.use(chaiHttp);
var app = 'localhost:3000';

describe("Sample Unit Testing", function() {
    describe("Get User Data", function() {
        it("get The User Employee ID", function(done) {
            // Send some Form Data
             chai.request(app)
            .post('/getUserData')
            .send({
            password: '3333', 
            empId: '1111'
            })
            .end(function (err, res) {
                expect(res.EmpId).to.equal("1111");               
                done();
            });
        });

    });
});

This is the Code I am Looking For and I found out myself 

//you must install these two in your node js using npm
var expect  = require("chai").expect;
var request = require('superagent');

describe("Name For The Test Suite", function() {
    it("Testing Post Request using Mocha", function(done) {
        request.post('localhost:8081/yourRequestCatcherName')
        .set('Content-Type', 'application/json')
        .send('{"fieldName":"data"}')
        .end(function(err,res){
            //your code to Test
            done();
        })
    });        
});

it Works Perfectly in the way What I want.
