Package description
The minimalistic-assert npm package is a minimal assertion library that provides a simple way to assert truths in JavaScript code. It is designed to be small and straightforward, offering basic assertion functionality without any frills.
Assert truthiness
This feature allows you to assert that a value is truthy. If the value is not truthy, it throws an AssertionError with the provided message.
var assert = require('minimalistic-assert');
assert(true, 'This will not throw');
assert(false, 'This will throw an AssertionError');Assert equality
This feature allows you to assert that two values are equal using the '==' operator. If they are not equal, it throws an AssertionError with the provided message.
var assert = require('minimalistic-assert');
assert.equal(1, 1, 'This will not throw');
assert.equal(1, 2, 'This will throw an AssertionError');Assert strict equality
This feature allows you to assert that two values are strictly equal using the '===' operator. If they are not strictly equal, it throws an AssertionError with the provided message.
var assert = require('minimalistic-assert');
assert.strictEqual(1, 1, 'This will not throw');
assert.strictEqual(1, '1', 'This will throw an AssertionError');The 'assert' module is a part of Node.js core and provides a simple set of assertion tests. It is more feature-rich than minimalistic-assert, offering a wider range of assertion methods such as 'deepEqual', 'notEqual', and 'throws'.
Chai is a BDD/TDD assertion library for node and the browser that can be paired with any JavaScript testing framework. It offers a more expressive and readable syntax compared to minimalistic-assert, with methods like 'expect', 'should', and 'assert' that support a range of assertions.
Expect.js is a minimalistic BDD-style assertions library that provides a similar set of features to minimalistic-assert but with a more fluent and chainable API. It allows for more readable tests and includes additional matchers.
