Is it possible to execute my QUnit (javascript) unit tests from Jenkins? My build script is Apache Ant. Would Jenkins execute this as a separate Build Step, or would I need to add something in the config of my Ant build script?
So, I have finally managed to figure this out.
Here's my end-to-end implementation:
Install PhantomJS (http://phantomjs.org/) - I installed this in my build/tools folder
Install the PhantomJS QUnit Runner script (https://gist.github.com/1588423) - also installed this in my build/tools folder
Added the following target to my build.xml file:
<target name="qunit" description="runs QUnit tests using PhantomJS">
<!-- QUnit Javascript Unit Tests -->
<echo message="Executing QUnit Javascript Unit Tests..."/>
<apply executable="path-to-your-phantomjs-bin-folder/phantomjs" >
<arg value="-path-to-your-build-tools/qunit-runner.js" />
<arg line="--qunit path-to-your-qunit-folder/qunit.js --tests path-to-your-test-folder --juni path-where-you-want-to-write-the-JUnit-style-output/qunit-results.xml" />
<fileset dir="${basedir}/${dir.test}" includes="tests.js" />
<srcfile/>
</apply>
</target>
Under my Jenkins project config, I now invoke Ant with "minify qunit"
I point Jenkins to the JUnit-style output XML file
And, here is the workflow:
PS: At the moment, you have to manually delete the JUnit-type XML output file. I will fix this later.
PS: Download the customized qunit.js (https://gist.github.com/2488794)
I've written an Ant task specifically for this
