Setting Bearer Token in the header section while testing with Supertest

Question

I'm trying to add the Bearer in the header section in POST request while testing with Supertest. I tried many methods. I'm a beginner in testing. Please suggest some better ways to achieve this.

here is my sample code. What is wrong with this?

it('POST/userAuth', async (done) => {
  const res = await request
                          .post('/v1/user/haha')
                          .set('Authorization', `bearer ${Token}`)
                          .send({
                            title: 'Some random text',
                            options: [
                              { start: hello, end: world },
                              { start: good, end: bye },
                            ],
                          });

You can set a request header like this:

const request = require('supertest');
const express = require('express');

const app = express();

const TOKEN = 'some_token';

describe('POST /some-url', function() {
  it('does something', function(done) {
    request(app)
      .post('/some-url')
      .send({ body: 'some-body' })
      .set('Authorization', `Bearer ${TOKEN}`)
      .expect(200, done);
  });
});
