This package has not had recent updates. Please investigate it's current state before committing to using it in your project.

tunguska:meteor-testing

This is a fork of the centiq:testing meteor driver package for running mocha tests, the project uses SlimerJS to interact with the front end.

Why did we created our own driver package?

We had issues running PhantomJS with the practicalmeteor:mocha and dispatchme:meteor-mocha-phantomjs.

SlimerJS is presented as having the same behaviors as PhantomJS, however whereas PhantomJS is built on top of Webkit and JavascriptCore, SlimerJS is built on Gecko and SpiderMonkey.

Usage

meteor test-packages --driver-package=tunguska:meteor-testing

or

Environment variables

  • SERVER_ONLY_TESTS=1: To run only server side tests you can create an environment variable called SERVER_ONLY_TESTS and set it to 1.
  • AUTO_EXIT=1: Best used in conjunction with meteor test --once`: terminates the meteor process and test runner.
  • SLIMERJSLAUNCHER=/path/to/firefox: slimer tries to find firefox, but this tells it where it should go. Useful for pinning firefox to a predifined version.
