Type '{}' is missing the following properties from type 'Request': get, header, accepts, acceptsCharsets, and 67 more

I'm testing my endpoints in offline mode mocking/faking all the data. Based on the Firebase Unit testing of Cloud functions docs, they use it as following:

const req = { query: {text: 'input'} };
const res = {
  redirect: (code, url) => {
    assert.equal(code, 303);
    assert.equal(url, 'new_ref');
    done();
  }
};

// Invoke addMessage with our fake request and response objects
myFunctions.addMessage(req, res);

My code is similar:

const req = {

}

const res = {

}

updateUser(req, res)

// and this is 'updateUser()' function in another file
export default functions.https.onRequest(async (req, res) => { ... }

So I'm getting the following error:

Argument of type '{}' is not assignable to parameter of type 'Request'. Type '{}' is missing the following properties from type 'Request': get, header, accepts, acceptsCharsets, and 67 more.

How can I avoid putting all the 67 properties? I just want to provide 'method', 'query' or 'body' properties.

Thanks @mamichels, with their help I've managed to work it out. So I'm posting the solution just in case, it may help someone. I'm using Firebase CF with Express.

import * as express from "express"

...

it("should do something", async () => {
    const req = {
      method: "POST"
    }

    const res = {

    }

    updateUser(req as express.Request, res as express.Response)
})

And my updateUser looks like:

export default functions.https.onRequest(async (req, res) => {
  ...
})

Just type it as: (req as Request), res => ...
