Vue3 testing Provide/Inject state change using vitest and @vue/test-utils

Question

I have a vue3 component which simply renders a list using an array of objects provided to it. If the array is empty it shows a "no data" message.

The component gets its data via a dependency provider.

Using vitest and test-utils I am trying to write a test which ensures the "no data" message is rendered if the provided array is empty and renders the data if the array is populated. I am trying to do this within the same test suite where the steps are:

1. Mount component with provider having empty array.
2. Test for "no data"
3. Trigger state change by updating provider with populated array
4. Test for "has data"

This is the test (a working example is available on stackblitz):

import { ref } from 'vue';
import { shallowMount } from '@vue/test-utils';
import { describe, expect, it } from 'vitest';

import TheList from '../components/TheList.vue';
import { ListKey, type ListProvideType } from '../components/symbols';

const listData = ref<string[]>([]);

const listProvide: ListProvideType = {
  data: listData,
};

const mountOptions = {
  global: {
    provide: {
      [ListKey as symbol]: listProvide,
    },
  },
};

describe('List', () => {
  const wrapper = shallowMount(TheList, mountOptions);

  it('no data message rendered', () => {
    expect(wrapper.text()).toContain('No Data');
  });

  // listData.value = ['item 1'];
  it('has data messae rendered', () => {
    listData.value = ['item 1'];
    expect(wrapper.text()).toContain('Has Data');
  });
});

The above test works for "no data" but the second test fails as the listData update does not effect the mounted component (or effects after the test?). If I perform the listData update outside the "it" statement then the first test fails as there is now data.

One work around has been to mount the component twice, once with no data and the second time with data. But this seems wrong.

So my question is - how do I test for "no data" then "has data" via dependency provider?
