This is a prototype demonstrator of using Selenium + Test.Simple +
TAP::Harness to automate Javascript unit tests.
Requires:
* Selenium Remote Control Server running on localhost port 4444
http://seleniumhq.org/projects/remote-control/
* Perl >= 5.8.8
* Perl modules...
* autodie
http://search.cpan.org/dist/autodie
* TAP::Harness 3.17 or newer (part of Test-Harness)
http://search.cpan.org/dist/Test-Harness
* WWW::Selenium (part of Test-WWW-Selenium)
http://search.cpan.org/dist/Test-WWW-Selenium
* A web browser Selenium can talk to.
Currently hard coded to Firefox.
To run:
* Start your Selenium RC server.
The docs on that.
http://seleniumhq.org/docs/05_selenium_rc.html
* Run javascript_harness
* It will run the demonstration tests in t/. One is a
Perl test to demonstrate it still runs Perl tests. One is
Javascript inside HTML. The rest are pure Javascript.
* If all goes well you'll see....
$ perl javascript_harness
t/perl.t .... ok
t/tap.js .... ok
t/tap1.js ... ok
t/tap2.js ... ok
t/tap3.js ... ok
t/tap4.js ... ok
t/tap5.js ... ok
t/tap.html .. ok
All tests successful.
Files=8, Tests=8, 9 wallclock secs ( 0.24 usr 0.07 sys + 0.03 cusr 0.02 csys = 0.36 CPU)
Result: PASS
Notes:
* The Javascript tests are written using Test.Simple, a Javascript testing
library which outputs TAP. They are bundled in t/lib. You can get
your own copy here.
