hydro

Teeny-weeny test runner for Node.js

Quick start guide

1. Install hydro and any plugins you might want to use with NPM. (Suggestions: install a basic test reporter, like hydro-bdd or hydro-tdd.)

   npm install --save-dev hydro hydro-bdd
   

2. Create a hydro.conf.js file in the root of your project.

   var assert = require('assert');
   module.exports = function(hydro) {
     hydro.set({
       attach: global,
       suite: 'My test suite',
       formatter: 'hydro-simple',
       plugins: ['hydro-bdd'],
       tests: ['./test/*.js'],
       globals: { assert: assert }
     });
   }
   

3. Write some tests in the directory you pointed to.

   describe('A basic test', function() {
     it('should allow for assertions', function() {
       assert(true);
     });
   });
   

4. Now run your test from the root directory of your project!

   ./node_modules/.bin/hydro
