Npm module with mocha test support for Visual Studio Code debug adapters
Npm module with support classes for writing automated tests for a VS Code debug adapter.
The module provides a toolkit with Promise-based building blocks for individual protocol requests (e.g. stepInRequest
) and for common request sequences (e.g. hitBreakpoint
). These building blocks can be easily configured for a specific adapter and combined to form complex scenarios.
Here are three example Mocha tests:
var dc: DebugClient;
setup( () => {
dc = new DebugClient('node', './out/node/nodeDebug.js', 'node');
return dc.start();
});
teardown( () => dc.stop() );
test('should run program to the end', () => {
return Promise.all([
dc.configurationSequence(),
dc.launch({ program: "main.js" }),
dc.waitForEvent('terminated')
]);
});
test('should stop on entry', () => {
return Promise.all([
dc.configurationSequence(),
dc.launch({ program: "main.js", stopOnEntry: true }),
dc.assertStoppedLocation('entry', 1)
]);
});
test('should stop on a breakpoint', () => {
return dc.hitBreakpoint({ program: "main.js" }, "test.js", 15);
});
