jasmine-await

jasmine-await

This project adds asyncawait support to jasmine.

It extends the functions it(), beforeEach(), afterEach(), beforeAll() and afterAll() and wraps them in the async() function. So you can always use await() to wait for a promise's resolution or rejection.

Installation

npm i -D jasmine-await

Usage

Example1:

var async = require("jasmine-await");
var it = async.it;
var await = async.await;

it("should work", () => {
  var x = await(new Promise(res => res(42)));
  expect(x).toBe(42);
})

Example2 (same test, using typescript with jasmine-ts):

import {it, await} from "jasmine-await"

it("should work", () => {
  let x = await(new Promise(res => res(42)));
  expect(x).toBe(42);
})

Note

You still need to install the typings for jasmine to make the typescript-compiler happy about your specs:

typings i -D --ambient jasmine
