You can simply $set the desired field and replace the entire array like this:

db.collection.updateOne(
{} //  empty match since idk what your match parameter is ;)
,{
    $set: {
        "roles": ['a', 'b'] // this is your value from the object
    }
})

for role in testRoles: db.collection.update_many.update_one({'name': role['name']},{$set : {'roles': role['permission']}})
