SlimJS

An Async Node.js SliM server for FitNesse

To use slimjs on an existing FitNesse server:

npm install -g slimjs

On windows there might be an error when java is trying to execute SlimJS even though installed globally. Try to replace COMMAND_PATTERN with an absolute path.

!define COMMAND_PATTERN {node C:\Users\<MY_USER>\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\slimjs\src\SlimJS %p}

Create a test page in FitNesse and add this to the top of the page, remember on windows to replace COMMAND_PATTERN with an absolute path if needed:

!define TEST_SYSTEM {slim}
!define COMMAND_PATTERN {SlimJS %p}
!path /Path/To/My/Fixtures

|import      |
|my-test-file|

|Hi            |
|echo |sayHi?  |
|Bob  |Hi! Bob |

/Path/To/My/Fixtures/my-test-file.js

function Hi(){
    this.setEcho = function(str){
        this.echo = str;
    }
 
    this.sayHi = function(){
        return "Hi! " + this.echo;
    }
}
 
module.exports.Hi = Hi;

If you want to do something asynchronous, return a thenable (promise):

|script  |child_process            |
|check   |exec  |node -v  |v5.4.0  |

var exec = require('child_process').exec;
 
function child_process() {
    this.exec = function (cmd) {
 
        return {
            then:function(fulfill,reject){
                exec(cmd, function (err, stdout, stderr) {
                    if(err)
                        return reject(err);
 
                    fulfill(stdout.trim());
                });
            }
        }
    }
}
 
module.exports.child_process=child_process;

Using namespaces:

|eg.Division                       |
|numerator |denominator |quotient? |
|10        |2           |$result=  |
|$result   |10          |0.5       |
|12.6      |3           |4.2       |
|100       |4           |25        |

var eg={
    Division:function(){
        var num;
        var denom;
 
        this.setNumerator = function(n){
            num = n;
        }
        this.setDenominator = function(n){
            denom=n;
        }
        this.quotient = function(){
            return num/denom;
        }
    }
};
 
module.exports.eg=eg;

Name conversion:

|should I buy milk                                              |
|cash in wallet|credit card|pints of milk remaining|go to store?|
|0             |no         |0                      |no          |

Using JSON

|Json                         |
|json               |X and Y ?|
|{x:1,y:2}          |3        |
|{x:'Bar', y:' Baz'}|Bar Baz  |

function Json(){
    this.setJson = function(jsonObject){
        this.obj = jsonObject;
    }
 
    this.XAndY = function(){
        return this.obj.x + this.obj.y;
    }
}
 
module.exports.Json=Json;

For contributors

I'm working to pass the FitNesse Test Suite for Slim.

• ChainTest - pass
• ChainWithInstanceTest - pass

You can run these test locally here (after you startup): http://localhost:8080/FitNesse.SuiteAcceptanceTests.SuiteSlimTests

To start the environment:

npm install
cd fitnesse
java -jar fitnesse-standalone.jar -p 8080

http://localhost:8080

To start the UDP logger (for debugging)

node src/utils/LogUdpServer.js

Thanks to:

Tomasz @mrt123. The first user of slimjs and for the async exec example.
Gregor Gramlich @ggramlich. For help with the SliM protocol, the PHP implementation and the promise proposal.
