ember-cli-nodetests

An EmberCLI addon to add the capability to run node tests to your addon

Motivation

Often times, when creating an EmberCLI addon that extends EmberCLI functionality, as opposed to the consuming ember app functionality, the ability to test the node lib files created outside of the context of the app directory is required. There are a few boilerplate things that need to be installed and configured in order to get these tests running and this addon automates that.

This addon is designed to be used in addons that only provide node functionality that extend EmberCLI. You can see examples of these sorts of addons by looking at any of the ember-cli-deploy plugins.

What does this addon do?

This addon will:

• Add node testing dependencies: chai, chai-as-promised, mocha and moch-jshint
• Create a jshint node test
• Configure an npm test script that will run all **/*-nodetest.js files within in the tests directory

Installation

Install with EmberCLI:

$ ember install ember-cli-nodetests

or with NPM:

$ npm install --save-dev ember-cli-nodetests
$ ember generate ember-cli-nodetests

Run your new node tests:

$ npm test
