Siesta

A rails mountable engine setting up siesta for testing ExtJS.

Install

Add siesta to Gemfile:

gem 'siesta'

And then run bundle install to install siesta. That's all.

Usage

• Mount the engine in your rails application.

# config/routes
if Rails.env.development?
  mount Siesta::Engine => '/'
end

• (OPTIONAL) Configure siesta.

  • spec_dir - Default directory of specs is spec/javascripts, so you should create you specs under spec/javascripts by default. But you could change the default value through an initializer.

    # config/initializers/siesta.rb
    Siesta.configure do |config|
      config.spec_dir = 'test/javascripts'
    end

  • auto_organizing - Organizing the tests by folders, default is true.

    # config/initializers/siesta.rb
    Siesta.configure do |config|
      config.auto_organizing = false
    end

    If you do not enable auto_organizing function, you need to create a test_harness.js under spec_dir to organize your tests.

    var Harness = Siesta.Harness.Browser.ExtJS;
    
    Harness.start({
      group               : 'Sample',
      items               : [
        '/assets/sample.t.js'
      ]
    });

• Create your specs under the directory of specs.

// spec/javascripts/sample.t.js
StartTest(function(t) {
  t.ok(1 == 1, 'A sample test');
})    

• Create spec/javascripts/test_harness.js to start.

// spec/javascript/test_harness.js
var Harness = Siesta.Harness.Browser.ExtJS;

Harness.start({
  group: 'Sample',
  items: ['/assets/sample.t.js']
});

• Start up the application, and then run your tests through http://localhost:3000/siesta.

rails s

• (OPTIONAL) Customize the behavior of siesta. See the Siesta.Harness.Browser.ExtJS for a detailed description of all available options.

// spec/javascripts/siesta_config.js
Siesta.Harness.Browser.ExtJS.configure({
  title: 'Dummy App',
  loaderPath: { 'DummyApp' : '/assets/extjs/app' },

  preload : [
    "/assets/extjs/resources/css/ext-all.css",
    "/assets/extjs/ext-all-debug.js"
  ]
});
