I recommend using sinon to mock/stub database connection. It works if you use ORM library or native databas library. I usually use stub method like this:

const sinon = require(‘sinon’);
const chai = require(‘chai’);

it(‘sentence for expected test’, () => {
   let stubDbConnection = sinon.stub(dbLib, ‘connectionMethod’);
   testedFunction();

   chai.expect(stubDbConnection.calledOnce).to.be.true;
});

Hope it helps you. Regards
