Learn how to test your JavaScript exercises on Exercism
Execute the tests with:
npm run test
Be sure your code follows best practices and coding styles, as other users do, with ESLint, a tool to perform static analysis on your code. Sometimes, tools like this save you some time detecting typos or silly mistakes in your JavaScript code:
npm run lint
You can also run Jest in "watch" mode, which will re-run your tests automatically when you save changes to the code or test module:
npm run watch
The skip method instructs the test suite to not run a test, this function could be used also under the aliases: it.skip(name, fn)
or xit(name, fn)
or xtest(name, fn)
To enable users to concentrate on one test at a time and enable one by one as they evolve the solution.
Change xtest
to test
.
test('title cased phrases', () => {
expect(Acronyms.parse('Portable Network Graphics')).toEqual('PNG');
});
Usually, tests on this track will load your implementation by importing it as a JavaScript module: import { Bob } from './bob.js';
.
You just need to export your implementation from the referenced file, bob.js
:
export function hey(message) {}
You can find more information about modules in the Babel documentation. To make it easier to get started, there is a skeleton JavaScript file in the directory.
