I am trying to get my Unit Tests working in Grunt, when I execute my index file in the browser the tests run successfully, however when I run the tests with grunt qunit
it cannot recognise any tests.
I I am sure this is down to the way I am executing the tests, if for example I just include:
<script>
test('Always Fail', function() {
equal(5, 2, 'The return should be 2.');
});
</script>
In the head of my index.html test page, and then run Grunt I can see this test failing. However I am trying to load my tests using requireJS, which as I have said do work within the browser.
My index.html file looks like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Unit Testing</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="qunit/qunit.css">
<script data-main="../unittests" src="../lib/require.js"></script>
<script src="qunit/qunit.js"></script>
<script>
test('Always Fail', function() {
equal(5, 2, 'The return should be 2.');
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="qunit"></div>
<div id="qunit-fixture"></div>
</body>
</html>
I am assuming it is this line:
<script data-main="../unittests" src="../lib/require.js"></script>
That is causing the issue and not being loaded with grunt.
My unittests.js file looks like this:
require.config({
paths: {
'QUnit': 'test/qunit/qunit'
},
shim: {
'QUnit': {
exports: 'QUnit',
init: function() {
QUnit.config.autoload = false;
QUnit.config.autostart = false;
}
}
}
});
// require the unit tests.
require(
['QUnit', 'test/dummyTest'],
function(QUnit, dummyTest) {
// run the tests.
dummyTest.run();
// start QUnit.
QUnit.load();
QUnit.start();
}
);
Here is my gruntfile:
module.exports = function(grunt) {
// use grunt
var nocompress, optimize;
nocompress = grunt.option('nocompress') || false;
if(nocompress) {
optimize = 'none';
} else {
optimize = 'uglify';
}
// Project configuration.
grunt.initConfig({
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
requirejs: {
compile: {
options: {
appDir: "dev/",
baseUrl: "js",
mainConfigFile: "dev/js/bootstrap.js",
dir: "www",
optimize: optimize,
modules: [
{
name: "app"
}
]
}
}
},
qunit: {
all: ['dev/js/test/**/*.html']
},
jshint: {
options: {
curly: true,
eqeqeq: true,
eqnull: true,
browser: true,
globals: {
jQuery: true
},
},
uses_defaults: [
'dev/js/collections/*.js',
'dev/js/models/*.js',
'dev/js/views/*.js',
'dev/js/*.js', ]
}
});
// Load plugins
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-qunit');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-uglify');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-jshint');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-requirejs');
// Default task(s).
grunt.registerTask('build-and-qunit', ['default', 'qunit']);
grunt.registerTask('default', ['jshint', 'requirejs']);
};
I've had some success using a structure similar to: https://github.com/jonnyreeves/qunit-require
