Example

const test = require('tropic');
const assert = require('assert');

test('title', () => {
  assert.equal(1 + 2, 3)
});

test.only('title test.only', () => {
  assert.equal(1 + 2, 3)
});

test.skip('title test.skip', () => {
  assert.equal(1 + 2, 3)
});

test('title done callback', (done) => {});
test('title promise', () => Promise.resolve());
test('title async-await', async () => await () => {});

Usage

You can install tropic using npm:

npm install --save-dev tropic

After you created your first test file (e.g. test.spec.js) you might just run tropic like the following:

tropic **/*.spec.js --watch

Usage with babel / ES2019:

npm install @babel/register --save-dev
tropic **/*.spec.js --require=@babel/register

Note: Please verify that you have a .babelrc or babel config within your package.json. Also make sure that you have all plugins/presets in installed and configured.

Options

--watch

Starts a watcher for the current directory. On file changes the tests will be automaticly executed again. In case there is already an execution running, the running execution will be canceled. The watcher ignores the node_modules directory, dotfiles and hidden directories like .idea.

--require

Following an example using @babel/register:

tropic **/*.spec.js --require=@babel/register

Multiple modules are also supported:

tropic **/*.spec.js --require=@babel/register,./custom-local-script.js

--timeout

Sets the threshold of the accepted test execution duration in milliseconds. [Default 200 ms]

tropic **/*.spec.js --timeout=20
