jasmine-browser

This is one tiny implementation of jasmine, which is runnable in the browser environment. I create this tiny rudimentary 'jasmine framework' basically for fun and to have a jasmine runnable in browser with the minimum codes that I can write.

Usage

By now, you should, however, only deploy it under the browser environment(for the name) and might refer to your old friend JavaScript DevTools Console(i.e., F12 in some browsers) to observe the resulting record.

describe("Testing", function() {
	var share;
	
	beforeEach("BeforeEach: Sharing Value", function() {
		share = 18;
		expect(share).toBe(0);
	});

	it("the first: Synchronousity", function() {
		var num = 1;
		expect(share++).toBe(18);
		expect(num).toBe(1);
	});

	it("the second: Asynchronousity", function(done) {
		var called = false;
		setTimeout(function() {
			called = true;
			expect(share).toBe(18);
			expect(called).toBe(false);
			done();
		}, 0);
		expect(called).toBe(false);
	});

	it("the third: Object", function() {
		var arr = {a:1, b:2};
		expect(arr).toEqual({a:1, b:3, c:5});
	});
	

	// createSpy & toHaveBeenCalledWith is in development

});

Features

This module is developed orginally for fun & exploration, hence the features are quite limited initially, but it will be improved in the future. The current features include:

• basic support of describe, expect & it, just like jasmine.
• support the asynchronous test.

There are no supports of gulp, webpack or browserify yet right now, but still they are on schedule. One more thing, another brother module is about crafting on schedule, i.e., jasmine-node, the one which can test in node.js environment which uses the node module process.nextTick for a pollyfill.

Finally, while I have not sketched out the other API akin to original 'jasmine' at a higher level yet, you should be awared that they atually exsit and will be brought out in the future. What the codes I write down here are only a demonstration of showing how short and runable codes I can write for one humble mimic of jasmine. Just feel feel to learn the details and issue the problem of the codes. There are certain more features comming out near future, features like createSpy, toHaveBeenCalled and toHaveBeenCalledWith are all on schedule to be released.

There are even another brother module ongoing I write about, namely jasmine-node, the one which can test in node.js environment which uses the node module process.nextTick for a pollyfill.

For now, suffice it to merely enjoy the poor interface I have implemented.

Stay tuned~
