How can I make jasmine.js stop after a test failure?

I want the runner to stop after the first failure rather than running all the tests.

Solution

  • It's a hack, but you can do this by inserting this script before your first test;

    <script type="text/javascript">
// after every test has run
afterEach(function () {
  // check if any have failed
  if(this.results_.failedCount > 0) {
    // if so, change the function which should move to the next test
    jasmine.Queue.prototype.next_ = function () {
      // to instead skip to the end
      this.onComplete();
    }
  }
});
</script>
