jasmine-node not going inside it block

var jasmine = require('jasmine-node');

describe('Report Comparison ', function () {

    it('test case', function () {
        console.log('Inside It');
        expect("1").toBe(1);
    });
});

I have this simple testcase for trial. But while execution the code inside it block is not executed.

Solution

  • First, you'll need to install jasmine-node globally.

    npm install -g jasmine-node

    You don't need to require jasmine-node in your test file. Just run your test like this instead of node test.js:

    jasmine-node spec/SampleSpec.js  // For a single file

jasmine-node spec/  // For running multiple specs inside the `spec/` directory

    Straight from the docs,

    Note: your specification files must be named as spec.js, spec.coffee or spec.litcoffee, which matches the regular expression /spec\.(js|coffee|litcoffee)$/i; otherwise jasmine-node won't find them! For example, sampleSpecs.js is wrong, sampleSpec.js is right.
