Cloudflare Adds Security.txt Setup Wizard
Cloudflare has launched a setup wizard allowing users to easily create and manage a security.txt file for vulnerability disclosure on their websites.
Jest is a delightful JavaScript Testing Framework with a focus on simplicity. It works with projects using: Babel, TypeScript, Node, React, Angular, Vue, and more. It's designed to ensure correctness of any JavaScript codebase. It allows you to write tests with an approachable, familiar, and feature-rich API that gives you results quickly.
Unit Testing
Jest allows you to write unit tests for your JavaScript functions. In this example, a simple test is written to check if the addition of 1 and 2 equals 3.
test('adds 1 + 2 to equal 3', () => {
expect(1 + 2).toBe(3);
});
Mocking
Jest provides a powerful mocking library that lets you mock objects, functions, and modules. In this example, an HTTP request is mocked to test the behavior of a function that fetches user data.
jest.mock('../api');
test('should fetch users', () => {
const users = [{name: 'Bob'}];
const resp = {data: users};
axios.get.mockResolvedValue(resp);
return Users.all().then(data => expect(data).toEqual(users));
});
Snapshot Testing
Snapshot testing enables you to test your UI or any serializable value to ensure it does not change unexpectedly. This example demonstrates testing an object against a snapshot, with some fields expected to match specific types rather than values.
test('will check the matchers and pass', () => {
const user = {
createdAt: new Date(),
id: Math.floor(Math.random() * 20),
name: 'LeBron James'
};
expect(user).toMatchSnapshot({
createdAt: expect.any(Date),
id: expect.any(Number)
});
});
Asynchronous Testing
Jest supports testing of asynchronous code. In this example, an asynchronous function `fetchData` is tested to ensure it resolves with the expected value 'peanut butter'.
test('the data is peanut butter', async () => {
await expect(fetchData()).resolves.toBe('peanut butter');
});
Mocha is a feature-rich JavaScript test framework running on Node.js and in the browser, making asynchronous testing simple. Mocha is often compared to Jest because of its flexible and configurable nature, but it requires more setup and configuration for features like mocking and snapshot testing, which Jest provides out of the box.
Jasmine is a behavior-driven development framework for testing JavaScript code. It does not rely on browsers, DOM, or any JavaScript framework. Similar to Jest, it comes with an easy syntax that makes writing tests simple. However, Jest offers more modern features like snapshot testing and built-in support for test coverage.
AVA is a test runner for Node.js with a concise API, detailed error output, and process isolation that lets you develop with confidence. AVA is designed to handle asynchronous testing more efficiently than Jest but lacks some of Jest's features like snapshot testing and built-in mocking.
Chai is a BDD / TDD assertion library for node and the browser that can be delightfully paired with any JavaScript testing framework. It's often used alongside other testing frameworks like Mocha or Jest to provide more expressive assertions. Unlike Jest, Chai is purely an assertion library and does not provide test runners or mocking utilities.
Restful API framework for node.js with easy generating resource from Mongoose ORM
This module provides:
var express = require('express') , app = express.createServer(), , mongoose = require('mongoose') , util = require('util') , mongoose_resource = require('mongoose_resource');
var Schema = mongoose.Schema;
mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost/app');
// create mongoose model var User = mongoose.model('user', new Schema({ username: {type:String,required:true}, email: String, password : {type:String,validate:[function(v) { return true},'custom validate']}, credits:{type:Number, min:1, max:230}, role:{type:String, 'default' :'user' ,enum:['user','admin']}, date: {type:Date,'default':Date.now}, groups:[{name:String,permissions:[{name:String,expires:Date}]}] }));
// create mongoose-resource for User model var UserResource = function() { UserResource.super_.call(this,User); // use array to decide which fields will be visible by API // this.fields = ['username','credits']; // use tree object to decide recursively which fields to expose this.fields = {'username':null,,'credits':null,groups:{name:null,permissions:{name:null}}}; // use list or this.update_fields = ['email','password']; // specify base query for the model this.default_query = function(query) { return query.where('credits').gte(10); }; // specify which fields can be used to filter this.filtering = {'credits':0}; // which http methods are allowed this.allowed_methods = ['get','post','put']; }; util.inherits(UserResource,mongoose_resouce.Resource);
var api = new mongoose_resource.Api('/api',app);
api.register('users',new UserResource());
$ npm install jest
There is none. But there is an example, and a test. And maybe one day will be...
