tiny-runner

A tiny test runner with async support.

Installation

$ npm install tiny-runner

Usage

$ node <filename>

Test files should register tests to the register function by passing a name and test callback to the global it function. The runner will execute registered tests on the next tick of the event loop. You may use any standard assertion library.

var runner = require('tiny-runner');

it('can add two numbers', function () {
	var val = add(1, 1);
	assert.equal(2, val)
});

For deferred tests return a Promise/A compatible object. Your test should resolve the promise when done. You may also pass a callback when resolving the promise if you need to make any post-async assertions.

it('can add two numbers via server', function () {
	var def = new Deferred();

	serverAdd(1, 1).then(function (val) {
		def.resolve(function () {
			assert.equal(2, val);	
		});
	});

	return def.promise;
});

Before / After

Use beforeEach(fn) and afterEach(fn) to schedule setup and teardown decorators.

Options

Pass a timeout argument to override the default test timeout.

$ node tests 1000

Tests

Test runners need tests too.

npm test
