0.2.1 • Public • Published

NUnit.js

Neal's unit test framework for JavaScript.

  • No callbacks and closures. Simple and Intuitive. Easier to understand and write tests.
  • Pure JavaScript based. Runnable in browser or in NodeJS.
  • A similar syntax to JUnit test framework. Less learning curve for developer who is already familiar with the most popular Java unit test framework.

v0.2.1

Usage

In browser

<!-- Include nunit.js -->
<script src="../nunit.js"></script>
<script>
var name = "world";
var test = new NUnit.Test("Test Hello world"); // Create a test module (test case)
test.myTest = function(assert){ // Every method on the test module is a test. 
    assert.equals("hello world!", "hello " + name + "!");
  };
</script>
<!-- nunit-browser.js contains the driver script that looks for all the test modules and runs them with built-in test runner. -->
<!-- It also provides a mini reporter for displaying test results -->
<script src="nunit-browser.js"></script>

In NodeJS

var nunit = require("nunit");
var test = new NUnit.Test("Test Hello Node!");
test.myTest = function(assert){
    assert.equals("hello Node!", "hello " + "Node" + "!");
  };
nunit.execute(); //Use default configuration to run all test modules.

API doc

NUnit.Test

  • A test module (or test object) is an instance of NUnit.Test class.

      var test = new NUnit.Test("Test description.");
    
  • Every function on this module object are treated as one test except these four: before, after, beforeAll, and afterAll.

  • If before and after was defined on the test object, they will run before and after each test respectively.

  • If beforeAll and afterAll was defined on the test object, they will run before and after all tests respectively.

NUnit.Assert

Accessing the assert object

There are two ways to get to the assert object.

  • From assert attribute of the test module

      var test = new NUnit.Test("a test module");
      var a = test.assert ;
    
  • From the first argument of the test function:

      test.myTest = function(a){
      	a.assertTrue(true);
      }
    
  • And they are equivalent:

      test.testAssert = function(a){
      	a.strictEquals(a, this.assert);
      }
    
Assert functions
  • equals(obj1, obj2, desc) (Aliases: eq, equal, assertEqual, assertEquals)

    Asserts obj1 equals to obj2. It uses == to compare the two. For javascript object it also tries JSON.stringify(obj1) == JSON.stringify(obj2). Do not use to compare two null value. Use #isNull to assert a null(or undefined) value.

  • strictEquals(obj1, obj2, desc) (Aliases: strictEqual, assertStrictEqual, assertStrictEquals)

    Asserts obj1 is strictly equal to (===) obj2

  • notEqual(obj1, obj2, desc) (Aliases: neq, notEquals, assertNotEqual)

    Asserts not equal.

  • isTrue(obj, desc) (Aliases: t, assertTrue)

    Asserts obj is true.

  • isFalse(obj, desc) (Aliases: f, assertFalse)

    Asserts obj is false.

  • isNull(obj, desc) (Alias: assertNull)

    Asserts obj is null or undefined.

  • notNull(obj, desc) (Alias: assertNotNull)

    Asserts obj is not null or undefined.

  • fail(msg): Fails the current test with message msg.

  • contains(obj1, obj2, desc) (Alias: contain)

    Asserts obj1 contains obj2. It uses indexOf function on obj1.

  • exception(callback, desc): Asserts that the callback will throw an error.

  • tracer(): Returns a Tracer object. A Tracer object is useful to assure an asynchronized callback has actually been called as well as to verify the number of times it's called.

    • Tracer

      • trace(desc): Adds 1 to the trace count every time it is called.
      • once(desc): Adds 1 to the trace count the first time it is called. It uses desc to identify different calls.
      • verify(count, desc): Veryfies the total number of trace count is count and throws error if failed.
    • For example:

        test.testTracer = function(a){
        	var tr = assert.tracer();
        	a.notNull(tr);
        	for(var i = 0 ; i < 10; i++){
        		tr.trace();
        		tr.once();
        		tr.once();//same `desc` as tr.once() above, so it will take no effect
        		tr.once("second trace.once()");
        	}
        	tr.verify(12);
        }
