Testarossa

Testarossa, an extensible and truly async test framework for node

Description

System tests made easy, just add your properties to a testcase, post, get and validate your results. It comes with different formatters like jUnit, machine and colorful console output.

Example Usage

Checkout the example folder for a usage example or the simple example below.

module.exports = function(test) {
    test.add("test-setup", function(done) {
      this.dataToSend = {"name", "foo"};
      done();
    });
    test.get("/api", {status: 200});
    test.add("verify ok message", function(done) {
      var responseBody = JSON.parse(this.lastResponse.body);
      responseBody.should.have.property("message", "ok");
      done();
    });
    test.post("/api/hello", this.dataToSend, {status: 200});
    test.add("check the last response", function(done) {
      var responseBody = JSON.parse(this.lastResponse.body);
      responseBody.should.have.property("message", "hello foo");
      done();
    });
};

http helper

Using the http helper is quite forward for REST API testing. It takes a given path, optional body data and headers and a mandatory evaluate Object as shorthand validation (eg: {status: 200} will check against 200 reponse status code).

supported methods: get, head, post, put, delete, trace, options, connect, patch

$ test.[method](path,[body,][headers,]evaluateObject)
