+# nyc-config-typescript
+
+Handy default configuration for instrumenting your babel-backed
+project with test coverage using [nyc](https://github.com/istanbuljs/nyc).
+
+First install the dependencies:
+
+`npm i nyc source-map-support ts-node @istanbuljs/nyc-config-typescript --save-dev`
+
+Then write a `tsconfig.json` that looks something like this:
+
+## tsconfig.json
+
+```json
+{
+  "sourceMap": "inline",
+  // OR
+  "sourceMap": true
+}
+```
+
+## .nycrc
+
+And write a `.nycrc` that looks like this:
+
+```json
+{
+  "extends": "@istanbuljs/nyc-config-typescript",
+  // OPTIONAL if you want coverage reported on every file, including those that aren't tested:
+  "all": true
+}
+```
+
+## Running Tests
+
+If you're using `mocha`:
+
+### test/mocha.opts
+
+```
+--require ts-node/register #replace with ts-node/register/transpile-only if you have custom types
+--require source-map-support/register
+--recursive
+<glob for your test files>
+```
+
+Now setup the test scripts in your package.json like so (with the equivalent for your test runner):
+
+```json
+{
+  "test": "nyc mocha"
+}
+```
