Framework for testing third-party JavaScript applications

JavaScript 100.00%

hiro's Introduction

Hiro
====

Hiro is a framework for testing third-party JavaScript applications.
It runs each test suite in a separate sandbox preventing global state
leaks and conflicts.

Stable version can be found here: http://hirojs.com/. The current
*master* branch contains the source of Hiro 2, backwards incompatible
iteration of Hiro that is scheduled to be released soon.

Patches
-------

Before submitting a patch please make sure that:

  0) You have an issue opened describing your problem or proposal.
  1) You use tabs for indentation.
  2) Your coding style looks similar to what is already in the repo.
  3) All JavaScript files pass JSHint check (you can run 'grunt lint'
     to automatically lint files.
  4) All tests pass. To run tests open 'tests/test.html' in your
     browser.
  5) Example tests behave as intended. To check that execute 'grunt run'
     and open http://localhost:7777/ in your browser. Execute all tests
     and you should see only three failures:

       * BasicTests.testFailedTest
       * Basictests.testFailedExpect
       * FailedSuite.testSimple

     These failures were introduced for UI demonstration purposes.
  6) Your commit messages look good (no one-liners please). See most
     recent commit messages for reference.

hiro's Issues

Show an error message when more assertions where expected

Strict comparison in assert methods

Right now the assert functions are using loose comparison operators within the assert methods, is there any particular reason not to use strict comparisons?

Write an example showcasing Hiro

Useful for newcomers to get into Hiro and for contributors to make sure UI is not broken.

Ability to re-run all (failed) tests

EOM

No warning/error message what # of tests doesn't match expected

It just fails with a red error bar - there's no indication of what actually happened.

New website

New fancy pants Hiro website

No feedback if fixture DOM element doesn't exist

Show failure location, if possible

EOM.

Show error message when module name is incorrect

Whenever the module name is incorrect an error message should be shown to indicate why the test could not be run.

Documentation on running Hiro with PhantomJS

I can't seem to find any documentation on how to run Hiro using PhantomJS. I'm no expert on the subject but with a little help I could write up a small cookbook article.

Ability to separately run tests and suites

EOM

pause/resume eliminates expect(X) call

If you use pause/resume in a test, that test will ignore any prior expectations re: # of assertions.

Ability to open test suites in a new window by clicking on a title

EOM

Gracefully handle invalid resources

In cases where Hiro fails to load certain resources the test suite will stop executing.

For example, we have several test cases which will load an html, javascript, or css file, and as soon as that fails the test suite bails (no events are fired/etc).
