Tester is a test runner for the hackable Atom Editor. Additionally, you need to install a specific tester provider for your test framework. You will find a full list below in the Known provider section.
-
IDE based Feedback
-
Gutter test result markers
-
In-line error messages
-
Console test output
-
Test result view
-
-
Session based test watching
- Test file on open
- Test file after save
- Test project
-
Supported test frameworks (for now):
You can install through the CLI by doing:
$ apm install tester
Or you can install from Settings view by searching for Tester.
Declare the provider callback in the package.json.
"providedServices": {
"tester": {
"versions": {
"1.0.0": "provideTester"
}
}
}Define the provider callback in lib/main.js.
export function provideTester() {
return {
name: 'tester-name',
options: {},
scopes: ['**/test/*.js', '**/*spec.js'],
test(textEditor/* or null to run project tests*/, additionalArgs/* from results views*/) {
// Note, a Promise may be returned as well!
return {
messages: [
{
duration: 1, // duration in ms
error: {
name: 'optional error object',
message: 'something went wrong',
actual: 'optional actual result', // can be an object
expected: 'optional expected result', // can be an object
operator: 'optional operator',
},
filePath: 'file path to highlight',
lineNumber: 1, // line number to highlight
state: 'failed', // 'passed' | 'failed' | 'skipped',
title: 'some test title',
}
],
output: 'tester console output'
};
},
stop() {
// stop tester if needed
}
};
}I'd like to give a shout out to Wallaby.js, which is a significantly more comprehensive and covers a lot more editors, if this extension interests you - check out that too.
Stick to imposed code style:
$ npm install$ npm test
- add unknown status for test which not ran
- replace all views with react components (etch)
- add table view with results similar to nuclide diagnostics
- sort data by column head click
- quick set additional args for test runner
- merge results from each test runner
- re-sizable columns
- side by side diff view for expectations
- go to next/previous test commands
- add run all project tests command
- implement Redux and redux-observable for result view
- serialization
