referee

referee

referee is in your unit tests, deciding who passes and who fails.

It is a test-framework agnostic assertion and expectation library. Some highlights:

• Rich library of assertions
• Symmetric assert/refute (refute is referee's "assert.not*")
• Evented: Emits success and failure events
• Failing assertions throw exceptions by default, but can be configured to not
• API to add custom assertions that provides quite a bit of plumbing for free

Full documentation: docs.busterjs.org/en/latest/modules/referee.

referee works in browsers (including old and rowdy ones, like IE6) and Node. It will define itself as an AMD module if you want it to (i.e. if there's a define function available).
