Install the web test runner:
npm i --save-dev @web/test-runner
Do a single test run:
web-test-runner test/**/*.test.js --node-resolve
wtr test/**/*.test.js --node-resolve
Run in watch mode, reloading on file changes:
web-test-runner test/**/*.test.js --node-resolve --watch
wtr test/**/*.test.js --node-resolve --watch
Run with code coverage profiling (this is slower):
web-test-runner test/**/*.test.js --node-resolve --coverage
wtr test/**/*.test.js --node-resolve --coverage
Transform JS to a compatible syntax based on user agent:
web-test-runner test/**/*.test.js --node-resolve --esbuild-target auto
wtr test/**/*.test.js --node-resolve --esbuild-target auto
