Error: Cannot find module 'power-assert'

[thetittenquetscher]

I got stuck at number 5 (How to run tests)

**5. In another terminal, run the unit tests from the root of the project :**

I am assuming that the root of the project refers to the Google Cloud Storage project folder storage in nodejs-docs-samples.

• Users/me/Downloads/nodejs-docs-samples/storage
• npm install in the directory above
• npm test
• npm test leads to this error (Error: Cannot find module ‘intelli-espower-loader’):

> [email protected] test /Users/me/Downloads/nodejs-docs-samples/storage
> mocha -R spec -t 120000 --require intelli-espower-loader ../test/_setup.js test/*.test.js

module.js:327
    throw err;
    ^

So this page here https://github.com/power-assert-js/intelli-espower-loader
provides the missing module including the module power-assert :

• npm install intelli-espower-loader --save-dev
• npm install power-assert --save-dev
• I run npm test again

Although I installed the module power-asset along with intelli-espower-loader earlier, terminal throws me the (Error: Cannot find module ‘power-asset’) again when running npm test :

> [email protected] test /Users/me/Downloads/nodejs-docs-samples/storage
> mocha -R spec -t 120000 ../test/_setup.js test/*.test.js

module.js:327
    throw err;
    ^

My attempts to uninstall and reinstall the power-assert module failed :

https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/uninstall

Also doing the commands in the storage folder suggested here did not work for me :

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9023672/nodejs-how-to-resolve-cannot-find-module-error

• rm -rf node_modules
• npm install

My package.json in the storage folder looks like this:

    {
  "name": "nodejs-docs-samples-storage",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "private": true,
  "license": "Apache Version 2.0",
  "author": "Google Inc.",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "mocha -R spec -t 120000 ../test/_setup.js test/*.test.js",
    "system-test": "mocha -R spec -t 120000 ../system-test/_setup.js system-test/*.test.js"
  },

  "dependencies": {
    "@google-cloud/storage": "^0.2.0",
    "googleapis": "^13.0.0",
    "moment": "^2.15.1",
    "yargs": "^6.0.0"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "babel-preset-power-assert": "^1.0.0",
    "intelli-espower-loader": "^1.0.1",
    "mocha": "^3.1.0",
    "node-uuid": "^1.4.7",
    "power-assert": "^1.4.1"
  },
  "engines": {
    "node": ">=4.3.2"
  }
}

Why does NPM not find the module power-assert which is installed and present in the node_modules file of the storage folder?

Am I pointing to the right directory, anyway?

I am thankful for any hints.
