What do you use to incorporate JSUnit tests into a NAnt build?

Posted by Jeremy Miller on May 28, 2007

Anybody got some good tips, or a working NAnt task for this that they like?  I use a slightly modified version of the

JsUnit document.write(JSUNIT_VERSION);2.1 TestRunner, but it would be pretty easy to convert to something else.

 

Thanks in advance.

    How exactly did you do that? I was under the impression that the test runner is just a HTML page. Of course I suppose it would be possible to script IE to run the tests, but my project is cross-platform and I’d like to avoid a build dependency on a browser too…

    … or did you mean you’re using the HTML page and are actually looking for the same thing I am? :)

    @Rytmis,

    I’m looking for the same think in all likelihood. I know it’s possible and other people have done it. I’m mildly tempted to try to write a TestDriven.Net plugin for it.

    We use a Nant exec task to do the job.



    ${site}/jsunit – contains jsunit
    ${site}/tests/jsunit – contains all the jsunit tests

    Hope this helps.

    If you need to ask any other questions; tobyh at perfectinfo dot com
    I’ll try help get you up and running

    Got a basic style sheet to show the results. If you need it.

    Jeremy,

    I use ecmaunit which is a little more flexible IMO for running tests. It has the browser based test viewer like JSUnit, but it also has a simple script that can be used to run JS tests from the command line (which I know Nant will handle very well).

    I know this isn’t the solution you were looking for necessarily, but JSUnit seems to be a fuller test environment (but you pay because there are some complexities to it)…

    Ecmaunit feels better me (I wonder if it might be possible to cross pollinate some of the tools)

    I am working on JsUnit buils. I want to run the JsUnit testcases and genarate a html report. I need any xslt stylesheet which can convert a xml format jsunit report to html format.

    Hi Jeremy,

    Did you ever come up with an approach you liked for this? Just curious as we are starting to play with jsUnit.
