Jasmine is a framework to test the JavaScript code. It is available as a Node.js module and also as a library, which we can use in the browser. It comes with its own assertion methods.
We are going to use the Node.js version of the framework. It's a module, so it can be installed via the Node.js package manager, npm
, as shown in the following code line:
npm install jasmine-node -g
The preceding command will set up Jasmine globally, so we can run jasmine-node
in every directory of our choice. The tests could be organized into different files placed in one folder or in subfolders. The only requirement is to end the filenames with spec.js
, for example, testing-payments.spec.js
or testing-authorization.spec.js
.
