delayed console logging for mocha
If you're unit testing code that also prints some debug info or warnings
with console.log
, console.warn
or uses some other console
output
in node, then just add require('@hn3000/mocha-delayed-logging')
and only
see console output for failed tests.
Example output
Run npm test
or yarn test
in this project to see this example. (Sorry,
couldn't automate the check for debug output in a failing test.)
