+description: Modern alternatives to the mockdate package for mocking time in tests
+---
+
+# Replacements for `mockdate`
+
+`mockdate` is mainly used in tests, and modern test runners already include built-in APIs for mocking time without pulling in an extra dependency.
+
+## `vitest`
+
+[`vitest`](https://vitest.dev/guide/mocking.html#mock-the-current-date) provides `vi.useFakeTimers()` and `vi.setSystemTime()` for mocking the current date during tests.
+
+```ts
+import MockDate from 'mockdate' // [!code --]
+import { vi, test, expect } from 'vitest' // [!code ++]
+
+test('freeze date', () => {
+  MockDate.set('2026-01-01') // [!code --]
+  vi.useFakeTimers() // [!code ++]
+  vi.setSystemTime(new Date('2026-01-01')) // [!code ++]
+
+  expect(new Date().toISOString()).toBe('2026-01-01T00:00:00.000Z')
+
+  MockDate.reset() // [!code --]
+  vi.useRealTimers() // [!code ++]
+})
+```
+
+## `node:test`
+
+[`node:test`](https://nodejs.org/en/learn/test-runner/mocking#time) supports mocking time via `mock.timers` since node 20.4.0 and later.
+
+```ts
+import MockDate from 'mockdate' // [!code --]
+import { test } from 'node:test' // [!code ++]
+import assert from 'node:assert/strict' // [!code ++]
+
+test('freeze date', (t) => {
+  MockDate.set('2026-01-01') // [!code --]
+  t.mock.timers.enable({ apis: ['Date'], now: new Date('2026-01-01') }) // [!code ++]
+
+  assert.equal(new Date().toISOString(), '2026-01-01T00:00:00.000Z')
+
+  MockDate.reset() // [!code --]
+})
+```
+
+## `bun:test`
+
+[`bun:test`](https://bun.com/docs/guides/test/mock-clock) provides `mock.timers.enable()` for mocking time in tests.
+
+```ts
+import MockDate from 'mockdate' // [!code --]
+import { test, expect, mock } from 'bun:test' // [!code ++]
+
+test('freeze date', () => {
+  MockDate.set('2026-01-01') // [!code --]
+  mock.timers.enable({ now: new Date('2026-01-01') }) // [!code ++]
+
+  expect(new Date().toISOString()).toBe('2026-01-01T00:00:00.000Z')
+
+  MockDate.reset() // [!code --]
+  mock.timers.reset() // [!code ++]
+})
+```
