Is there a capybara for Node.js?

Question

Does anyone know whether there is anything similar to capybara for Node.js?

Answer 1

Yes, see expresso and more here - Unit testing framework for node.js that specifically supports testing async code?

Answer 2

I'm a rails-turned-node developer and I've always been looking for a analogy in the JS world for the winning RSpec/Capybara combination. Here is what I've found what I like best.

• Mocha - for running asynchronous tests
• Chai - for assertions
• Request - for handling HTTP request/response
• Cheerio - for selecting HTML elements from responses

Here is a more involved post on how to set up this stack including continuous test running.

Happy Testing!
