Need to setup Unit Tests about projectman HOT 3 CLOSED

Personally I've never used either Mocha or Chai, but I have used Ava for one project and Jest for others. (:heart: jest's snapshot tests)
Substack's Tape is another minimalistic testing lib that would suffice.

I like how by default jest and ava find all my test files and include expect/assert type logic in the test runtime.

Up to you, it's just tool opinions. What do you think @saurabhdaware ?

I am not sure how Jest will handle command-line tests I read this article https://medium.com/@zorrodg/integration-tests-on-node-js-cli-part-1-why-and-how-fa5b1ba552fe which explained testing in CLI and they are using mocha and chai.

Though now I think the easier way would be to call the action functions rather than triggering the commands and reading the output.

That's cool @saurabhdaware. Np and sounds just fine.

Food for thought, I also like this other cli framework called gluegun, they use jest to perform integration tests on their CLI. e.g. they test the outcome of a command such as files created and such, but they do test the terminal output some too.

I'll fix the issue you brought up in my PR in a few.
