Corti NPM | npm.io

Corti

Corti is a drop in replacement for the browser's SpeechRecognition object. It mocks some of the behaviour of the native object to facilitate automated testing, and provides a number of extra methods beyond the spec to help testing.

For an example of using Corti to test a real project, check out SpeechKITT.

To easily use Speech Recognition in your own project, check out annyang.

Sample Test With Corti

// Patch the current environment with a mock Speech Recognition object
Corti.patch();

// Interact with the mock object, like you would with the real SpeechRecognition object
var recognition = new window.SpeechRecognition();
recognition.onstart = function() {console.log("I'm listening");};
recognition.addEventListener('result', function(sre) {
  console.log(sre.results.item(sre.resultIndex).item(0).transcript);
});
recognition.addEventListener('end', function() {console.log("Quiet");});
recognition.continuous = true;

// Use extra utility methods added to the mock object to assist with testing
expect(recognition.isStarted()).toBe(false);
recognition.start();
expect(recognition.isStarted()).toBe(true);
recognition.abort();
expect(recognition.isStarted()).toBe(false);

// Simulate speech recognition
recognition.addEventListener('result', mySpyFunction);
expect(mySpyFunction).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
recognition.say("Next time you want to stab me in the back, have the guts to do it to my face");
expect(mySpyFunction).toHaveBeenCalled();
