test-monitor v1.1.0

Test Monitor

Automated test monitoring tool.

About

Test Monitor is a tool that:

• Runs your test suite on code change
• Displays test output and coverage reports in a web page
• Refreshes content of web page when test suit is run

Test monitor combines a handful of open source tools to help you keep an eye on your tests while you code.

How to use:

• Install globally: npm install -g test-monitor
• Run in app directory: test-monitor

OR

• Install the package using install dev: npm install-dev --save test-monitor
• Add command to npm script in package.json to monitor

"monitor": "node_modules/test-monitor/bin/monitor"

• Run: npm run monitor

Options

Test monitor supports the following options:

• -e - Specify which test executor to use. Defaults to lab.
• -t - Path to run test suite. Defaults to test.
• -w - Directory to watch for changes. Defaults to entire application (except dependencies).

Notes

This is a very early release and still needs a lot of work. Currently only works for the test framework lab, but can/will be updated to work with other js test utilities and forms of displaying test results.

How it works

This tool combines supervisor (to watch for code changes), reload (to watch report output and reload browser), and test framework (to execte tests and produce report).

• supervisor: https://github.com/petruisfan/node-supervisor
• reload: https://github.com/jprichardson/reload
• lab: https://github.com/hapijs/lab
