JavaScript Unit Testing

SYNOPSIS

Getting started with JavaScript Unit Testing (biased towards Jasmine). Much more info is available via Jasmine official - https://jasmine.github.io/

IMPORTANT

** The weather application is a Java web application (credit: Hazem Saleh). The server-side part of the application is written using Java servlets (http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/6/tutorial/doc/bnafd.html). If you are not familiar with Java servlets, do not worry.

** Because this app is based on Java, you need the following:

• Install a runtime java environment (download Java SE Development Kit)
• Install a server (download apache-tomcat server)
• Install Jasmine globally (pip install jasmine)

• Later, we dive working with Jasmine/Karma to test JavaScript

GET - STARTED

Assumptions

• Configure Git and Github
• Fork and clone the repo
• Configure java (JAVA_HOME) and tomcat-server (CATALINA_HOME)

Configure

• Remember the applications are found within apache-tomcat-(version)/webapps/
• Goto conf/server.xml, edit <connector port="(input)" scheme="https" .../>
• Under %JAVA_HOME%, use keytool to generate keys
• Add the generated keys to your browser (as certificates) to run https://
• Under conf/tomcat-users, add a role/user to access the manager-gui for easy app management
• Launch C:\server\apache-tomcat-7.0.68\bin>startup.bat
• If successful, thus far, launch https://localhost:(port)/manager/html, then select, weatherApplication to launch app. OR Open the app directly https://127.0.0.1:(port)/weatherApplication/login.jsp

Contribution guidelines

• Gitflow remote collaboration model
• Code review (pull requests)
• Writing tests (Unit tests)
• Other guidelines shall be issued with time.
