NoseJS 0.9.4

NoseJS is a Nose plugin to run JavaScript tests using Rhino in a Java subprocess.

Usage:

Here is the most basic way to invoke NoseJS (assumes you've downloaded Rhino into ~/src)

$ nosetests --with-javascript --rhino-jar ~/src/rhino1_7R1/js.jar

This command would look for any files along Nose's path ending in .js that match Nose's current test pattern, collect them all, then execute them using Rhino in a single Java subprocess at the end of all other tests. By default, files looking like test*.js will be collected and run.

The idea behind NoseJS is that you might have a Python web application that relies on JavaScript for some of its functionality and you want to run both Python and JavaScript tests with one command, nosetests. You can put these JavaScript tests wherever you want in your project.

Here is a more realistic example that shows how the Fudge project is tested simultaneously for Python and JavaScript functionality. Its project layout looks roughly like this:

|-- fudge
| |-- __init__.py
| |-- patcher.py
| |-- tests
| | |-- __init__.py
| | |-- test_fudge.py
| | |-- test_patcher.py
|-- javascript
| |-- fudge
| | |-- fudge.js
| | |-- tests
| | | |-- test_fudge.html
| | | `-- test_fudge.js
`-- setup.py

Both Python and JavaScript tests can be run with this command:

$ nosetests --with-javascript
 --rhino-jar ~/src/rhino1_7R1/js.jar
 --with-dom
 --js-test-dir javascript/fudge/tests/
