grunt-mocha-phantomjs
Advanced tools
A simple wrapper to run client-side mocha tests using mocha-phantomjs core library
This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.0
If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:
npm install grunt-mocha-phantomjs --save-dev
Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-mocha-phantomjs');
Run this task with the grunt mocha_phantomjs command.
Task targets, files and options may be specified according to the grunt Configuring tasks guide.
PhantomJS is installed when installing using NPM.
Type: String
Default: spec
The reporter that should be used. See the supported reporters for more information.
Type: String
The file that the task should output the results to. If output is specified, the task will always complete and not throw an error code if errors are found. The CI will determine if the build failed or not.
Type: Boolean
Setting failWithOutput to true when used with the output option will fail a build along with creating a test artifact. This is useful for CIs (CircleCI) that don't fail a build based on the test artifact.
Type: Boolean
Setting silent to true will prevent the results from being printed using stdout.
Type: Array
Default: []
Absolute http:// or https:// urls to be passed to PhantomJS. Specified URLs will be merged with any specified src files first. Note that urls must be served by a web server, and since this task doesn't contain a web server, one will need to be configured separately. The grunt-contrib-connect plugin provides a basic web server.
Additional arguments may be passed. See mocha-phantomjs's usage.
Type: Object
Default: { useColors: true }
Options to be passed to mocha-phantomjs. See mocha-phantomjs-core's usage.
// Project configuration.
grunt.initConfig({
mocha_phantomjs: {
all: ['test/**/*.html']
}
});
// Project configuration.
grunt.initConfig({
mocha_phantomjs: {
options: {
reporter: 'xunit',
output: 'tests/results/result.xml'
},
all: ['test/**/*.html']
}
});
// Project configuration.
grunt.initConfig({
mocha_phantomjs: {
options: {
reporter: 'xunit',
output: 'tests/results/result.xml',
config: {
useColors: false,
viewportSize: {
width: 1024,
height: 768
},
grep: 'pattern'
}
},
all: ['test/**/*.html']
}
});
Include the [grunt-contrib-connect plugin][] to run a local server [grunt-contrib-connect plugin]: https://github.com/gruntjs/grunt-contrib-connect
// Project configuration.
grunt.initConfig({
mocha_phantomjs: {
all: {
options: {
urls: [
'http://localhost:8000/test/foo.html',
'http://localhost:8000/test/bar.html'
]
}
}
},
connect: {
server: {
options: {
port: 8000,
base: '.',
}
}
}
});
grunt.registerTask('test', ['connect', 'mocha_phantomjs']);
This is a very basic implementation of mocha-phantomjs. Failed tests and errors do not bubble up for custom reporting. The idea of this is to be mainly used by a CI and let the CI manage the error reporting.
