How to Load a File for Testing with Jasmine Node?

Question

I have a simple JavaScript file, color.js, and a matching spec file, colorSpec.js.

color.js:

function Color()          


        

Answer 1

you could load your color.js in the colorSpec.js with a require(). I dont see how jasmine can guess all the dependencies without you telling jasmine what they are exactly in your spec file. Edit : A quick and dirty solution , but maybe there is something builtin Jasmine to do that :

fs = require('fs')
myCode = fs.readFileSync('./color.js','utf-8') // depends on the file encoding
eval(myCode)

then your class should be available with jasmine

if you call require directly on your file i think you need to create a module and export it
