Tasks

Tasks are run one at a time. They can do anything and print out anything to ther terminal while running. Each tasks must have a title and a task function. Tasks can either pass or fail.

{
  title: 'Task title',
  task: function (state, bus, done) {
    // DO STUFF
    done() // Call done() when done
  },
  skip: function (cb) {
    cb(shouldSkip) // Should we skip this task? 
  },
  view: function (state) {
    // neat-log view
  }
}

Use done([fail]) to complete the task.

• Pass: tests are considered passing if when calling, done(fail), fail is false.
• Fail: Anything truthy is considered a failure. If you pass a string, it will print the message.

Use the skip cb([skip]) to skip the task.

• Skip: Anything truthy is considered a failure. If you pass a string, it will change the title after skipping
• Run: Pass false to run the test
