rnode

Make node become really random, useful when checking you have no race conditions.

This adds a random delay to the async fuctions in node's modules:

• fs
• dns
• child_process (exec and execFile only)

This random delay makes it much easier to spot if you are relying on timing of these async functions that might be working 90% of the time. A random delay can make it fail more like 1 in 2 times.

Installation

npm install rnode

Usage

The API is simply rnode(min, max), e.g.

const rnode = require('rnode');
rnode('100 ms', '1 second');

You can pass either a string, as understood by the ms libarary, or a number of milliseconds. The defaults are 0 and 500ms.
