Jasmine halts after 2nd call to the same async mock function in test function

I suspect Jasmine halts after running an async mocked function 2nd time in the same function, but I cant seem to find the reason or the correct workaround.

The getDialogAnswer is a jquery dialog wrapped in a promise and async await function. This is an implementaiton of "delete" + "are you sure" dialog boxes. Everything works as expected in the running application.

the 2 calls

let optiontext = 'Delete project from plan?'
let deleteProject = await getDialogAnswer(title, optiontext, choices, defaultvalue)
...
optiontext = 'REALLY delete project from plan???<br>There is no going back'
deleteProject =  await getDialogAnswer(title, optiontext, choices, defaultvalue)

The mock function

const getDialogAnswer = jasmine.createSpy('Mock_getDialogAnswer').and.returnValues('yes','yes');

The test function is created with async

it("should delete on yes + yes", async () => {

This passes

expect(getDialogAnswer).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(2)

but following 4 of this type fails - says called 0 times.

expect(mainPart.clearSelected).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1)

The last I check is

expect(unsaved_changes).toBe(true);

which reports "Expected null to be true." But a console output writes correct true, so I know the function finished correctly.

The test is running in Jasmine HTML standalon Specrunner. I have tested with both 4.6,4.6 and 5.0Beta.

If I change the second call

deleteProject =  await getDialogAnswer(title, optiontext, choices, defaultvalue)

to

deleteProject =  'yes'

getDialogAnswer is of course only run once, but the rest of the expectaions pass!

And if I just remove the await of the second call to be like this

deleteProject =  getDialogAnswer(title, optiontext, choices, defaultvalue)

It all passes test - but then I cannot delete in the real application! Here the delete is not carried through.

I have gone through all I could find on async and spyes in the doc https://jasmine.github.io/index.html, and tried the method

const getDialogAnswer = jasmine.createSpy('Mock_getDialogAnswer').and.returnValues(
    Promise.resolve('yes'),Promise.resolve('yes'));

With same result

I have searched here, but mainly found how to setup test functions. I have a suspecion that I may have setup my mock fucntion incorrect or that Jasmine maybe has a flaw here. But I cant find any documentaion or other thread that shed some light on this. This might be a lead, but it seems to me that I am already doing it right. How to test async function with spyOn? Or am I missing something tiny but essential?

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
