Jasmine Waitsfor
Add support for jasmine like waitsfor and runs 193.
Jasmine waitsfor. The waitsfor block takes a latch function a failure message and a timeout. Waitsfor lets you test for unknown errors and timeouts in a jasmine way. This module extends jasmine waitsfor blocks with a useful feature for async testing. In the testing ajax event handlers using jasmine spies article we saw how the use of jasmine spies is an excellent way to test asynchronous ajax calls where we dont care about the practical implementation of the httpxmlrequest or the network connection.
I have a function which loads some html into the page and then attaches the dom elements and event listeners and sets a variable loadedto true for testing purposes. An expectation in jasmine is an assertion that can be either true or false. Active 6 years 6 months ago. However with jasmine 20 wait is deprecated and it now seems that everything inside a settimeout do not get run unless done is called witch in my case doesnt cut it as i actually want to wait real time before running my expectation.
Ask question asked 6 years 10 months ago. Rosenfeld opened this issue jun 10 2012 19 comments assignees. In jasmine 13 i used to wait a few milliseconds before running expectation and that worked fine. Its all wrapped in a parent.
Open rosenfeld opened this issue jun 10 2012 19 comments open add support for jasmine like waitsfor and runs 193. Typically my waitsfor functions do nothing except return a bool. My promises set the bool depending on if the returned data from the service is correct or not. However jasmine 20 adds async support to the primitive beforeeach aftereach and it functions.
In those instances a better approach is to use the jasmine runs. However there are times when that is precisely what you want to verify. A spec with one or more expectations that evaluate to false is a failing spec. Apologize and reinstate monica jul 7 14 at 2108.
A spec with all true expectations is a passing spec. Jasmine asynchronous testing waitsforruns timeout. According to jasmine 20 asynchronous support these functions has been wiped out from the library. With this extension loaded if the function you pass to waitsfor declares one or more parameters it will be passed a callback for each of its.
Normally jasmine will poll the latch function you pass to waitsfor and only advance the test when the function returns true. This is the equivalent of the old waitsforruns syntax which was removed from jasmine 2 waitsforandruns function escapefunction runfunction escapetime. The callback functions passed to these functions now can take an argument.
