The default grunt task checks the javascript, runs the unit tests and builds (non-minified) distributable files.
- Build (will run tests):
grunt(orgrunt.cmdon Windows). - Open one or more browsers and point them to
http://localhost:8080/__testacular/. Once the browsers connect the tests will run and the build will complete. - If you leave the browsers open at this url then future runs of
gruntwill automatically run the tests against these browsers.
You can run the development build on its own without tests to simply concatenate all the files to the dist folder
- Run
grunt build
You can build a release version of the app, with minified files.
- Run
grunt release
You can have grunt (testacular) continuously watch for file changes and automatically run all the tests on every change.
- Run
grunt test-watch - Open one or more browsers and point them to
http://localhost:8080/__testacular/. - Each time a file changes the tests will be run against each browser.
