@ezakto/mocha-md v0.1.0

mocha-md

Write mocha tests in markdown

Install

$ npm install -g mocha-md

Usage

Put you markdown test files under test/. Run $ mocha-md.

Test files will be transpiled to js, placed under .test/ and mocha will be run against them.

Tests syntax

Initialization

Add any initialization code in a code block before any test.

describe()

Headings are used to describe() a set of tests. Deeper level headings will result in nesting:

# Arrays

## #indexOf()

Will result in

describe("Arrays", function() {
  describe("#indexOf()", function() {});
});

it()

Paragraphs followed by a code block will translate to individual tests:

should return -1 when value is not present

```js
assert.equal(-1, [1,2,3].indexOf(4));
```

Will result in:

it("should return -1 when value is not present", function() {
  assert.equal(-1, [1, 2, 3].indexOf(4));
});

You can set before, after, beforeEach, afterEach, only and skip like this:

(before) initialize some extra stuff

```js
var ok = true;
```

Resulting in:

before("initialize some extra stuff", function() {
  var ok = true;
});

Async tests

You can set (async) to add a done callback argument to the test:

(async) should return -1 when value is not present

```js
setTimeout(() => {
  assert.equal(-1, [1,2,3].indexOf(4));
  assert.equal(-1, [1,2,3].indexOf(4));
  done()
}, 10);
```

Resulting in:

it("should return -1 when value is not present", function(done) {
  setTimeout(() => {
    assert.equal(-1, [1, 2, 3].indexOf(4));
    assert.equal(-1, [1, 2, 3].indexOf(4));
    done();
  }, 10);
});

You can combine (async) with other flags like this:

(beforeEach) (async) initialize test

```js
"before every test";
done();
```

Result:

beforeEach(function(done) {
  "before every test";
  done();
});
