test-dome v0.0.1

Installation

To install test dome use command npm install --save-dev test-dome. It is recommended to use TestDome with mocha framework.

Introduction

TestDome is library that currently stubs fs module. It should behave exactly like node.js module, but without operating on actual file system.

Usage

First require("testDome"); module in your test case. In your test step enclose your module under test with testDome.enclose(pathToModule, options);. In mocha framework it will automatically .release system modules, but in other frameworks (like nodeunit) you may do it manually.

Example test file

var testDome = require("test-dome");
var expect = require("chai").expect;

describe("Your code", function() {
    it("should hello world in file at specified path", function() {
        var codeUT = testDome.enclose("./pathToCode", {
            enabled: {
                vfs: true
            }
        });
        codeUT.writeHello("/tmp/helloWorld.txt");
        
        expect(testDome.vfs.getDataOfFile("/tmp/helloWorld.txt", "utf8")).to.equal("Hello World!");
    });
});

Roadmap

Current step

My current target is to mimic whole fs module and test it against external libraries like fs-extra, q, bluebird

Next Steps

• Allow to use proxyquire and zurvan for checking against time
• Mimic http module
• Mimic net module
• Mimic child_process module
• Add good mocking solution
