Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

gulp-mocha

Run Mocha tests

Keep in mind that this is just a thin wrapper around Mocha and your issue is most likely with Mocha.

Install

npm install --save-dev gulp-mocha

Usage

import gulp from 'gulp';
import mocha from 'gulp-mocha';

export default () => (
	gulp.src('test.js', {read: false})
		// `gulp-mocha` needs file paths so you cannot have any plugins before it.
		.pipe(mocha({reporter: 'nyan'}))
);

API

mocha(options?)

options

Type: object

Options are passed directly to the mocha binary, so you can use any its command-line options in a camelCased form. Arrays and key/value objects are correctly converted to the comma separated list format Mocha expects. Listed below are some of the more commonly used options:

ui

Type: string
Default: 'bdd'
Values: 'bdd' | 'tdd' | 'qunit' | 'exports'

The interface to use.

reporter

Type: string
Default: spec
Values: Reporters

The reporter that will be used.

This option can also be used to utilize third-party reporters. For example, if you npm install mocha-lcov-reporter you can then do use mocha-lcov-reporter as value.

reporterOptions

Type: object
Example: {reportFilename: 'index.html'}

Reporter specific options.

globals

Type: string[]

List of accepted global variable names, example ['YUI']. Accepts wildcards to match multiple global variables, e.g. ['gulp*'] or even ['*']. See Mocha globals option.

timeout

Type: number
Default: 2000

Test-case timeout in milliseconds.

bail

Type: boolean
Default: false

Bail on the first test failure.

checkLeaks

Type: boolean
Default: false

Check for global variable leaks.

grep

Type: string

Only run tests matching the given pattern which is internally compiled to a RegExp.

require

Type: string[]

Require custom modules before tests are run.

compilers

Type: string
Example: js:babel-core/register

Specify a compiler.

FAQ

Test suite not exiting

If your test suite is not exiting it might be because you still have a lingering callback, most often caused by an open database connection. You should close this connection or do the following:

export default () => (
	gulp.src('test.js')
		.pipe(mocha())
		.once('error', err => {
			console.error(err);
			process.exit(1);
		})
		.once('end', () => {
			process.exit();
		})
);

Or you might just need to pass the exit option:

export const test = () => (
	gulp.src(['test/**/*.js'], {read: false})
		.pipe(mocha({reporter: 'list', exit: true}))
		.on('error', console.error)
);
