Broyster Node.js tools

Usage

This package exports the following:

  • @fpjs-incubator/broyster/node:
    • karmaPlugin That can be used for launching and reporting tests.
    • setHttpsAndServerForKarma That configures karma for HTTP and HTTPS testing without any additional work.
    • BrowserFlags Is a collection of currently supported browser arguments that are uniformed for convenience (for example: Incognito will add launching the browser in incognito mode for Chrome and Edge, but private mode for Firefox).
    • makeKarmaConfigurator Makes a function that applies an opinionated full configuration, used by Fingerprint's projects, to Karma.
  • @fpjs-incubator/broyster/browser:
    • retryFailedTests That allows overriding the different behavior of Jasmine specs. The new behavior will retry a failed test up until the maximum specified in the first parameter, with a delay between each such attempt, indicated by the second parameter (in miliseconds). Call this function in the root of any executable file, involved in your testing code, for example, in a Jasmine helper file. Once called, it affects all tests Jasmine runs, even in the other files. For Karma, you can add a file that contains the invocation and point it in your files, that way you will not have it tied to one specific test file.

Use node exports when using Node.js contexts, like configuring Karma. Use browser exports when using browser contexts, like Jasmine.

To use mixed HTTP/HTTPS testing, in your Karma config file you need to use:

import { setHttpsAndServerForKarma } from '@fpjs-incubator/broyster'

setHttpsAndServerForKarma(config)

Launchers

The launcher provides additional properties: useHttps to specify if this launcher is supposed to connect to the HTTPS server (true) or not.

useHttps: true

deviceType is used only on iOS and allows to choose from iPhone (default) and iPad. You don't need to set a specific device name, the launcher chooses a device automatically. Same on Android.

  Android11_ChromeLatest: {
    platform: 'iOS',
    deviceType: 'iPhone',
    osVersion: '17',
    browserName: 'Safari',
    useHttps: true,
  },

firefoxCapabilities an array of extra capabilities specifically for Firefox.

firefoxCapabilities: [
  ['key', 1],
  ['key2', true],
  ['key3', 'value'],
],

osVersion selects the given OS version and also it's beta counterpart. For example, setting the OS version to 17 will choose either 17 or 17 Beta.

Reporters

There is a dedicated reporter that will mark successful tests as passed in BrowserStack.

config.set({
  reporters: [...config.reporters, 'BrowserStack'],
})

BrowserStack specific settings

The following config options are available inside the browserStack section of the config:

  • idleTimeout: expressed in miliseconds, specifies the amount of time that BrowserStack is supposed to keep the session alive without any activity before automatically killing it.

Launcher specific settings

The following config options are available inside the browserStack section of the config:

  • queueTimeout: expressed in miliseconds, specifies the maximum amount of time to wait for a the BrowserStack queue to free up a slot.
  • flags: a unified set of extra arguments that will be passed to the browser. For example passing incognito will apply the relevant seting to the browsers for which the flags were specified (incongnito in Chrome, private mode in Firefox or nothing in the case of Safari). Currently supported flags can be found under the BrowserFlags export. Example:
  import { BrowserFlags } from '@fpjs-incubator/broyster/node'

  ...

  Incognito_Chrome: {
    platform: 'Windows',
    osVersion: '10',
    browserName: 'Chrome',
    browserVersion: '57',
    useHttps: true,
    flags: [BrowserFlags.Incognito],
  },

Full Karma configuration

makeKarmaConfigurator is an alternative to creating a Karma configuration from scratch. The function creates an opinionated configuration used by Fingerprint's projects, but has few options and easy to use. The configuration is aimed to run TypeScript tests with Jasmine.

Example:

  • karma.conf.ts
    import { makeKarmaConfigurator } from '@fpjs-incubator/broyster/node'
    
    module.exports = makeKarmaConfigurator({
        projectName: 'My project',
        includeFiles: ['src/**/*.ts'],
    })
  • Run tests in browsers on the current machine:
    karma start --preset local --single-run
  • Run tests in browsers, supported by Fingerprint, on BrowserStack:
    karma start --preset browserstack --single-run
    Or only beta versions of these browsers:
    karma start --preset browserstack-beta --single-run
