What are karma-mocha-reporter's main functionalities?

Basic Usage

This code sample demonstrates the basic setup of the karma-mocha-reporter in a Karma configuration file. It sets Mocha as the testing framework and uses the Mocha reporter to display test results.

module.exports = function(config) {
  config.set({
    frameworks: ['mocha'],
    reporters: ['mocha'],
    browsers: ['Chrome'],
    files: [
      'test/**/*.js'
    ]
  });
};

Customizing Output

This code sample shows how to customize the output of the karma-mocha-reporter. By setting the 'output' option to 'full', you can get detailed information about each test, including the test name, duration, and status.

module.exports = function(config) {
  config.set({
    frameworks: ['mocha'],
    reporters: ['mocha'],
    mochaReporter: {
      output: 'full'
    },
    browsers: ['Chrome'],
    files: [
      'test/**/*.js'
    ]
  });
};

Using with Other Reporters

This code sample demonstrates how to use the karma-mocha-reporter alongside other reporters, such as the coverage reporter. The 'output' option is set to 'minimal' for a concise summary of test results, while the coverage reporter generates an HTML report of code coverage.

module.exports = function(config) {
  config.set({
    frameworks: ['mocha'],
    reporters: ['mocha', 'coverage'],
    mochaReporter: {
      output: 'minimal'
    },
    coverageReporter: {
      type: 'html',
      dir: 'coverage/'
    },
    browsers: ['Chrome'],
    files: [
      'test/**/*.js'
    ]
  });
};
