jdg

jdg v1.0.0

A simple set of tools for comparing given and expected results. It is meant to be semantically clear and concise, returning a simple truthy response. This is ideal for testing.

Installation

To use jdg throughout your project:

$ npm install --save jdg

To only use jdg for testing, add jdg to your devDependencies and:

$ npm install jdg

Examples

A testing example using mocha and shouldjs:

var jdg = require('jdg');
var should = require('should');
 
describe('GET /users', function() {
  it('should include Bob', function() {
    var users = someRequest('/users');
    jdg.isInArray(users, {name: 'Bob', id: 4}).should.equal(true);
  });
});

And an example using jdg outside of your testing suite:

var jdg = require('jdg');
 
function updateUser(user, attrs, opts) {
  attrs.forEach(function(attr) {
    if (jdg.isInArray(user.baseAttrs, attr)) {
      // do something
    }
  });
}

Jdg's underlying helpers is and get are also exposed for use:

function updateUser(user, attrs, opts) {
  if (jdg.is.missing(user)) {
    // throw some error
  } else {
    var userAttrs = judge.get.keys(user);
    // do something
  }
}
