Use with your tests.
npm install w3c-validate
var w3c = require('w3c-validate').createValidator();
w3c.validate('<html> ... </html>', function (err) {
if (err) {
console.error(err); // error includes [{message, context}] to help understand validation errors
} else {
console.log('Valid! Hurray!');
}
});
var request = require('supertest')
, express = require('express')
, w3c = require('w3c-validate').createValidator();
var app = express();
app.get('/page', function(req, res){
res.send(200,
'<!DOCTYPE html>' +
'<html lang="en">' +
'<head><title>Hello</title></head>' +
'<body>World</body>' +
'</html>');
});
describe('html validation', function(){
it('page should have no html errors', function(done){
request(app)
.get('/page')
.expect(200)
.end(function(err, res){
if (err) return done(err);
w3c.validate(res.text, done);
});
})
})
Sometimes, you'll have W3C Validation errors that you just want to ignore. Once you've identified the exact error message, you can pass that to the factory method. The validator will ignore these.
var w3c = require('w3c-validate').createValidator([
'Attribute xmlns:fb not allowed here.'
]);
To run the test suite first invoke the following command within the repo, installing the development dependencies:
npm install
then run the tests:
npm test
