A QUnit Interface for Mocha that supports all QUnit's assertion types.

Mocha ships with a QUnit interface, but it lacks assertions, support for expect(), and the asyncTest method. This is an alternate QUnit interface that supports all of those things, and is designed to be run inside of a node.js environment. The goal is to get as close as possible to being able to run QUnit tests unaltered in Mocha.

##Installation npm install qunit-mocha-ui

##Usage Mocha doesn't currently support loading external interfaces from the command line, so for now, you need to use Mocha progamatically to use this interface.

var Mocha = require('mocha');
//Add the interface
Mocha.interfaces["qunit-mocha-ui"] = require("qunit-mocha-ui");
//Tell mocha to use the interface.
var mocha = new Mocha({ui:"qunit-mocha-ui", reporter:"spec"});
//Add your test files
mocha.addFile("path/to/my/testfile.js");
//Run your tests
mocha.run(function(failures){
  process.exit(failures);
});

##Cool stuff You can mix and match Mocha features with QUnit. The done parameter works, so you can call it instead of start, and you have access to the currently running test object with the this keyword inside the test function, just like in Mocha.

test("my long test", function (done){
  expect(1);
  this.timeout(1000); //set the Mocha timeout.
  setTimeout(function (){
    ok(true, "It works");
    done(); //using done() instead of start(), either will work.
  }, 950);
});

##Known differences from QUnit API

• You have to use suite instead of module in your QUnit tests to declare a module. This is unlikely to be fixed because module is a reserved word in node.js
• The QUnit object is not currently exposed
• start and stop QUnit methods support is not a complete match for QUnit's behavior. You can't start a module more than once, as internally start is mapped to Mocha's done.

##Running tests Just run npm test from the project folder, or run node testrunner.js The tests are all written using this interface, so you may want to peek at them for more examples.
