espower-typescript-babel (experimental)

power-assert instrumentor for TypeScript and Babel

1. Transpile from TypeScript to ES6 with typescript-simple
2. Transpile from ES6 to ES5 with babel
3. Instrument with power-assert
4. Run tests

Why?

• TypeScript cannot transpile some features (generator, async/await) to ES5
• Babel can do it
• Zero configuration and zero temporary file for power-assert

Usage

Put tsconfig.json (target: ES6) and .babelrc in your project root, then

$ npm i -D espower-typescript-babel
$ mocha --compilers ts:espower-typescript-babel/guess test/**/*.ts

Also you need to npm i -D babel-preset-es2015, if you use babel presets like babel-preset-es2015 in .babelrc.
