What is karma-jasmine-html-reporter?
The karma-jasmine-html-reporter npm package is a plugin for the Karma test runner that provides a visual HTML report of the results of Jasmine tests. It allows developers to see their test results in a more readable and user-friendly format directly in the browser.
What are karma-jasmine-html-reporter's main functionalities?
Visual HTML Test Results
This feature allows you to see your Jasmine test results in a formatted HTML output. The code sample shows how to configure Karma to use the karma-jasmine-html-reporter by adding 'kjhtml' to the list of reporters and including the plugin in the Karma configuration.
module.exports = function(config) {
config.set({
reporters: ['progress', 'kjhtml'],
plugins: [
require('karma-jasmine'),
require('karma-chrome-launcher'),
require('karma-jasmine-html-reporter')
]
});
};
Debugging Support
The reporter supports interactive debugging by leaving the Jasmine Spec Runner output visible in the browser. The 'clearContext' option is set to false to keep the HTML output visible, allowing developers to inspect and debug directly.
module.exports = function(config) {
config.set({
reporters: ['kjhtml'],
client: {
clearContext: false // leave Jasmine Spec Runner output visible in browser
}
});
};

karma-spec-reporter

karma-summary-reporter
This reporter generates a summary of test results in the console after all tests have run. It is simpler than karma-jasmine-html-reporter and does not provide an HTML interface, focusing instead on a concise summary.

Installation
You can simply install karma-jasmine-html-reporter
as a devDependency by:
npm install karma-jasmine-html-reporter --save-dev
Configuration
module.exports = function(config) {
config.set({
reporters: ['kjhtml']
});
};
With options
In combination with multiple reporters you may want to disable terminal messages because it's already handled by another reporter.
Example using the 'karma-mocha-reporter' plugin:
module.exports = function(config) {
config.set({
reporters: ['kjhtml', 'mocha'],
jasmineHtmlReporter: {
suppressAll: true,
suppressFailed: true
}
});
};
You can pass a list of reporters as a CLI argument too:
karma start --reporters kjhtml
Develop
There's not much to this package.
adapter.js
, html.jasmine.reporter.js
, and jasmine.css
are copied with small adjustments from jasmine/lib/jasmine-core/boot.js
and jasmine/lib/jasmine-core/jasmine-html.js
, and jasmine/lib/jasmine-core/jasmine.css
respectively.
Just pull over changes from Jasmine as needed. There is a script to help with that; just run npm run build
and review the changes. Specifically, adapter.js
needs a lot of manual removals.
