The second half of the first phase of the testing framework upgrade. This finishes moving the exisintg tests to jasmine and the new test directory structure
Testing JSDoc 3
Running Tests
Running tests is easy. Just change your working directory to the jsdoc folder and run the following command on Windows:
jsdoc -T
... or on a Max OSX or *nix platform:
./jsdoc -T
If you can't get the short-form commands to work, try invoking Java directly:
java -cp lib/js.jar org.mozilla.javascript.tools.shell.Main \
-modules node_modules -modules rhino_modules -modules . \
jsdoc.js -T
Writing Tests
Adding tests is pretty easy, too. You can write tests for jsdoc itself (to make sure tags and the parser, etc. are working properly), tests for plugins, and/or tests for templates.
JSDoc 3 uses Jasmine (https://github.com/pivotal/jasmine) as its testing framework. Take a look at that project's wiki for documentation on writing tests in general.
Tests for JSDoc
And take a look at the files in the test directory for many examples of
writing tests for JSDoc itself. the test\fixtures directory hold fixtures
for use in the tests and the test\tests directory holds the tests themselves.
Tests for plugins
TODO:
More info for contributors about how tests work and about plugin/template tests
