A simple, unopinionated, modular test framework meant to simplify your tests. It supports Node (from the current LTS), as well as PhantomJS 2 and browsers (tested in Chrome and Firefox).
Note that this is a huge work in progress, and is probably not suited for production projects.
First, install Node and npm.
npm install --save-dev thallium
# If you would like it globally installed, that works, too.
npm install --global thalliumAlso, if you target older runtimes like PhantomJS or Internet Explorer, this will require a Promise polyfill, such as es6-promise. That polyfill in particular is used by this library to test in PhantomJS 2.
Check out the documentation.
# Your basic command
tlCouple specific notes:
-
I plan to make this a very batteries-included framework. It includes several useful utilities like an assertion library far more helpful than Node's
assert(you can easily define your own ad-hoc assertions, even - I do it in the tests themselves). -
Not much configuration is required to get started. I aim for ease of use and convention over configuration, but I also try to enable as much flexibility as you need. Your config file can even return a promise, if that's what you need.
As soon as it's 1.0, I'll stick to semver. Until then, here's how I'll aim for new versions:
- Minor versions (
0.x) represent larger breaking changes or larger new features. This includes much of the primary roadmap. - Patch versions (
0.1.x,0.2.x, etc.) represent bug fixes and smaller breaking changes/new features. This includes some of the nice-to-haves I've listed below the roadmap.
I will try to avoid breaking changes on patch updates, but it's not guaranteed, particularly if it's because a bug fix.
See the changelog for the most recent published changes. It also contains some useful migration information for dealing with breaking changes.
