Actually the exact situation was this:

I had to update nodejs as the code that was being tested didnt allow for async operations.
After updating, the code was able to run without failures (previously I got the "unexpected token function" error due to having node 6 installed).
Only then did mocha-sidebar fail to refresh the test suites. Not exactly sure what was going on but thats when the refresh didnt work. But honestly I dont even know if the tests were even running or not.
I will be sure to post any update if I come across this again.

I am using node v8.5.0. I have the same problem. The following workaround works for me.

How to reproduce:

1. Close all open files in VScode.
2. Exit VScode
3. Re-open VScode. At this point the tests should be loaded into the Mocha Sidebar, but they are not. Refreshing the Mocha Sidebar doesn't load them either.

Work-around:

1. Open a file in VScode (any file in your project)
2. Exit VScode
3. Re-open VScode. The tests are loaded into the Mocha Sidebar. So apparently you have to have some file(s) already open in VScode, when VScode starts.
