electron require directory

[tamascsaba]

I want to use electron nodeIntegration to require tests and test require your files, which speed up lot of my test running process (with wallaby-webpack or wallabify runs very slow).

Wallaby.js configuration file

module.exports = function (wallaby) {
  return {
    debug: true,
    files: [
      {pattern: 'src/client/testing/setup.ts'},
      {pattern: 'src/client/**/*.ts', load: false},
      {pattern: 'src/client/**/*.test.ts', ignore: true}
    ],

    tests: [
      {pattern: 'src/client/**/*.test.ts', load: false},
    ],

    testFramework: 'jasmine',

    env: {
      kind: 'electron',
      runner: require('electron'),
      options: {
        webPreferences: {
          nodeIntegration: true
        }
      }
    },

    bootstrap: function (w) {
      require('module').globalPaths.push(require('path').join(process.cwd(), 'node_modules'));
      requireGlob([w.baseDir + '/**/*test.js']).then(function (modules) {
        console.log(modules); // load nothing 
      });
    }
  };
};

Example test

foo.test.ts

import {foo} from './foo';

describe('foo', () => {
  it('to be defined', () => {
    expect(foo).toEqual({foo: true});
  });
});

Code editor or IDE name and version

WebStorm 2016.02.3

OS name and version

Linux

The bootstrap (AKA setup) function is sync, so that's why the then callaback is not called. You may try using delayStart and then start:

bootstrap: function (w) {
      w.delayStart();
      require('module').globalPaths.push(require('path').join(process.cwd(), 'node_modules'));
      requireGlob([w.baseDir + '/**/*test.js']).then(function (modules) {
        ...
        w.start();
      });
    }

but I haven't tried this specific setup (Electron+node require for tests/files). When our user want better performance they normally just switch their tests to use plain node with wallaby plus jsdom if DOM interaction is required.

Thanks, for quick answer, unfortunately it does not work :( requireGlob load my modules but webstorm not show anything.

I can't use node until angular/zone.js#475 will be merged, but nice idea
