Testim Root Cause mocha integration
For more information visit https://www.npmjs.com/package/@testim/root-cause
Prerequisites
Supported mocha versions are: 8.x and 7.2. while older versions will probably work, they are being tested.
We assume you already have tests written with puppeteer/playwright and the browser tab you are using is exposed globally as global.page.
Integration
Install the package:
# Using yarn
yarn add @testim/root-cause-mocha -D
# Using npm
npm install @testim/root-cause-mocha -D
Mocha 8
You need to load our Root Hook, and to use our reporter.
Our reporter wraps the default reporter.
Minimal Example:
mocha --require @testim/root-cause-mocha/rootHooks --reporter @testim/root-cause-mocha/reporter
Configuring the reporter
By default, the reporter will be spec reporter.
You may use --reporter-options actualReporter=REPORTERNAMEORPATH to use different reporter, as you would with --reporter.
Example:
mocha --require @testim/root-cause-mocha/rootHooks --reporter @testim/root-cause-mocha/reporter --reporter-options actualReporter=json
Mocha 7
For mocha 7, we will use the --file option instead of Root Hook. Minimal Example:
mocha --file @testim/root-cause-mocha/pre-mocha8 --reporter @testim/root-cause-mocha/reporter
Configuring the reporter
Same as Mocha 8
Using mocha config file
You may apply all these cli flags using mocha config file.
Minimal example:
// .mocharc.json
{
"require": "@testim/root-cause-mocha/rootHooks",
"reporter": "@testim/root-cause-mocha/reporter",
"reporter-option": {
"actualReporter": "NYAN"
}
}
