An isomorphic testing framework using nodejs and a generic browser (firefox, safari, chrome, and chromium supported, so far). Runs the same test code in both environments, and fails on any uncaught errors, or if finishTest is called with an argument that doesn't start with pass or kill.
Writing unit tests with iso-test is very easy. Simply import finishTest and call it with either pass ${successMessage} or fail ${failmessage}. A third command word kill tells the test runner to kill any browser processes when it is passed to finishTest from the browser. All other message formats are considered fail cases.
Then to run the tests, pass your test script to the iso-test command.
iso-test yourtest.js
This will run the test once in node, and once in the browser indicated by the BROWSER environment variable.
Environment variables and .env files are used to configure iso-test. Interpreted variables are:
| Variable | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| BROWSER | chromium | Browser executable to run (firefox, safari, chrome, and chromium supported) |
| HEADLESS | 0 | Run in headless mode if 1/true |
| SKIPNODE | 0 | Skip running the tests in node and only try the browser. |
| DEBUG | 0 | Print extra debug lines. |
| TEST_TIMEOUT | 15000 | Maximum text execution time in ms. |
This package implements the iso-module-boilerplate pattern, and is used there by default.
