This node.js module makes the wonderful Pivotal Lab's jasmine (http://github.com/pivotal/jasmine) spec framework available in node.js.

Version 1.3.1 of Jasmine is currently included with node-jasmine.

• Ability to test specs written in Literate Coffee-Script
• Teamcity Reporter reinstated.
• Ability to specify multiple files to test via list in command line
• Ability to suppress stack trace with --noStack
• Async tests now run in the expected context instead of the global one
• --config flag that allows you to assign variables to process.env
• Terminal Reporters are now available in the Jasmine Object #184
• Done is now available in all timeout specs #199
• afterEach is available in requirejs #179
• Editors that replace instead of changing files should work with autotest #198
• Jasmine Mock Clock now works!
• Autotest now works!
• Using the latest Jasmine!
• Verbose mode tabs describe blocks much more accurately!
• --coffee now allows specs written in Literate CoffeeScript (.litcoffee)

To install the latest official version, use NPM:

npm install jasmine-node -g

To install the latest bleeding edge version, clone this repository and check out the beta branch.

Write the specifications for your code in *.js and *.coffee files in the spec/ directory (note: your specification files must end with either .spec.js, .spec.coffee or .spec.litcoffee; otherwise jasmine-node won't find them!). You can use sub-directories to better organise your specs.

If you have installed the npm package, you can run it with:

jasmine-node spec/

If you aren't using npm, you should add pwd/lib to the $NODE_PATH environment variable, then run:

node lib/jasmine-node/cli.js

You can supply the following arguments:

• --autotest, provides automatic execution of specs after each change
• --coffee, allow execution of .coffee and .litcoffee specs
• --color, indicates spec output should uses color to indicates passing (green) or failing (red) specs
• --noColor, do not use color in the output
• -m, --match REGEXP, match only specs comtaining "REGEXPspec"
• --matchall, relax requirement of "spec" in spec file names
• --verbose, verbose output as the specs are run
• --junitreport, export tests results as junitreport xml format
• --output FOLDER, defines the output folder for junitreport files
• --teamcity, converts all console output to teamcity custom test runner commands. (Normally auto detected.)
• --runWithRequireJs, loads all specs using requirejs instead of node's native require method
• --requireJsSetup, file run before specs to include and configure RequireJS
• --test-dir, the absolute root directory path where tests are located
• --nohelpers, does not load helpers
• --forceexit, force exit once tests complete
• --captureExceptions, listen to global exceptions, report them and exit (interferes with Domains in NodeJs, so do not use if using Domains as well
• --config NAME VALUE, set a global variable in process.env
• --noStack, suppress the stack trace generated from a test failure

Individual files to test can be added as bare arguments to the end of the args.

Example:

jasmine-node --coffee spec/AsyncSpec.coffee spec/CoffeeSpec.coffee spec/SampleSpecs.js

jasmine-node includes an alternate syntax for writing asynchronous tests. Accepting a done callback in the specification will trigger jasmine-node to run the test asynchronously waiting until the done() callback is called.

    it("should respond with hello world", function(done) {
      request("http://localhost:3000/hello", function(error, response, body){
        expect(body).toEqual("hello world");
        done();
      });
    });

An asynchronous test will fail after 5000 ms if done() is not called. This timeout can be changed by setting jasmine.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL or by passing a timeout interval in the specification.

it("should respond with hello world", function(done) {
  request("http://localhost:3000/hello", function(error, response, body){
    done();
  }, 250);  // timeout after 250 ms
});

Checkout spec/SampleSpecs.js to see how to use it.

There is a sample project in /spec-requirejs. It is comprised of:

1. requirejs-setup.js, this pulls in our wrapper template (next)
2. requirejs-wrapper-template, this builds up requirejs settings
3. requirejs.sut.js, this is a __SU__bject To __T__est, something required by requirejs
4. requirejs.spec.js, the actual jasmine spec for testing

Install the dependent packages by running:

npm install

Run the specs before you send your pull request:

specs.sh

Note: Some tests are designed to fail in the specs.sh. After each of the individual runs completes, there is a line that lists what the expected Pass/Assert/Fail count should be. If you add/remove/edit tests, please be sure to update this with your PR.
