ntest

A little test framework I wrote to get a handle on this whole asynchronous javascript thing. I don't really know what I'm doing here, other than trying to mold javascript to fit my tiny ruby brain.

Installation

There's no packaging system for node.js yet, so I've just been creating symlinks in my ~/.node_libraries path.

$ ln -s /path/to/ntest/lib ~/.node_libraries/ntest

Usage

Mix the library into GLOBAL and start defining tests. Use whatever asserts library you like.

process.mixin(GLOBAL, require('ntest'));

var assert = require('assert') # comes with node.js

describe("an empty array")
  it("has zero length", function() {
    assert.equal(0, [].length);
  })
