@ava/babel-preset-stage-4

Babel preset for use with AVA

Aspires to bring finished ECMAScript proposals to AVA's test and helper files.

Efficiently applies the minimum of transforms to run the latest JavaScript syntax on Node.js 8, 10 and 12.

Built-ins are not added or extended, so features like Proxies, Array.prototype.includes or String.prototype.padStart will only be available if the Node.js version running the tests supports it. Consult node.green for details.

Sometimes a particular feature is mostly implemented in Node.js. In that case transforms are not applied.

Not all proposals can be supported via Babel transforms, see below for details. Babel may require "syntax" plugins in order to parse certain files. These plugins should be applied explicitly since this preset may not include them.

Install

$ npm install --save @ava/babel-preset-stage-4

Usage

Add @ava/stage-4 to your Babel presets.
