issu front-end test

A test-driven JS assessment

I want to work on the tests; what do I do?

To use the tests, you will need to install Node -- you can do this via the download page or using Homebrew if you are on a Mac.

Note that on Windows, there are some reports that you will need to restart after installing Node.

After Node have been installed, from this directory, run:

npm install
npm start

You can then view the tests in your browser at http://localhost:4444/tests.

When you visit that page, all of the tests should be failing; your job is to get the tests to pass. To do this, you'll need to refer to the tests in the files in the tests/ directory, and edit the files in the src/ directory. Once you update a test, you can reload the test page in the browser to see whether it worked.

You can also run (most of) the tests on the command line:

npm test

The command line runner is a work in progress; contributions welcome :)

You can also visit this url to develop with live-reload if that's your thing:

http://localhost:4444/webpack-dev-server/tests.

Data-driven tests

If your tests need data that can be fetched via XHR, stick a .json file in the data directory; you can access it at /data/<filename>.json.
