Mocha only runs one test

[javahaxxor]

Prerequisites

• Checked that your issue isn't already filed by cross referencing issues with the common mistake label
• Checked next-gen ES issues and syntax problems by using the same environment and/or transpiler configuration without Mocha to ensure it isn't just a feature that actually isn't supported in the environment in question or a bug in your code.
• 'Smoke tested' the code to be tested by running it outside the real test suite to get a better sense of whether the problem is in the code under test, your usage of Mocha, or Mocha itself
• Ensured that there is no discrepancy between the locally and globally installed versions of Mocha. You can find them with:
  node node_modules/.bin/mocha --version(Local) and mocha --version(Global). We recommend avoiding the use of globally installed Mocha.

Additional Information

I'm wondering if there is a bug. I'm getting this error on both OSX and Linux:

I don't understand which test file(s) aren't executed which are supposed to be. from that first screenshot, it looks like they all might be... but I can't really tell you more without more info about the repo.

you could try removing mocha.opts and see what happens

[ORESoftware]

could it be an .only call?

[wertlex]

Same here.
I made simple example: https://github.com/wertlex/mocha-recursive-issue

Issue is in npm run test-wildcard-recursive. Expected mocha will run tests from both test/admin and test/admin/superadmin, but only first one run.

Looks like mocha ./test/**/*.js --recursive not works as expected.

Found. This problem explained here: #3136
@javahaxxor you just need quotes
@boneskull this issue can be closed

[javahaxxor]

@wertlex I have quotes ..

[outsideris]

@javahaxxor Can you show your example which has the problem like @wertlex

[boneskull]

@javahaxxor grep for .only in your tests
