Getting "E11000 duplicate key" errors with MongoDB
This error can occur when you try and insert a record when an index field is "left over" that shouldn't be there. These can remain even if you update the Schema. You'll need to manually clear the offending index in your database (or just drop the database 
). See this page for further details: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23695676/mongoosejs-cant-disable-unique-to-field
AVA **/file no longer works
Ava - the test runner we use in npm test used to take glob wild cards like **/OpDetails.spec.js which would find the file in any folder. In the upgrade to v4 this was removed. Instead you have to specify a complete path to the target file.
On Mac and Linux you can use the back tick to generate the appropriate list of files into the command line
