library5.2.13jsnpmunverified

Atom Jasmine 3 Test Runner (v5.2.13) lets you run Atom package tests with Jasmine 3.x instead of the default Jasmine 1.3. It provides a simple drop-in replacement via the atomTestRunner field in package.json, with options for custom runners and legacy spec support. Maintained by UziTech, with updates for dependency compatibility. Key differentiators: minimal configuration, TypeScript support via atom-ts-transpiler, and custom matchers/plugins.

Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

createRunner

✓ const { createRunner } = require('atom-jasmine3-test-runner')

✗ import { createRunner } from 'atom-jasmine3-test-runner'

CommonJS only; package does not provide ESM exports.

default (runner)

✓ module.exports = require('atom-jasmine3-test-runner')

✗ import runner from 'atom-jasmine3-test-runner'

When using as atomTestRunner in package.json, just set the string; programmatic usage requires require().

config function

✓ const { createRunner } = require('atom-jasmine3-test-runner'); const runner = createRunner({}, configFunction)

✗ const runner = createRunner()

Config function is optional; if provided, it's called before Jasmine starts.

Shows drop-in usage via package.json and a custom runner with options and a configuration function.

// In package.json: // "atomTestRunner": "atom-jasmine3-test-runner" // For custom runner: // spec/custom-runner.js const { createRunner } = require('atom-jasmine3-test-runner'); const extraOptions = { suffix: '-spec', legacySuffix: '-spec-v1' }; const configFn = function() { require('some-jasmine-plugin'); beforeEach(function() { jasmine.addMatchers({ toBeTheAnswer: function(util) { return { compare: function(actual) { const pass = util.equals(actual, 42); return { pass, message: `Expected ${actual} ${pass ? 'not to be' : 'to be'} 42` }; } }; } }); }); }; const runner = createRunner(extraOptions, configFn); module.exports = runner;

Debug

Known issues

breakingGlob dependency updated to v8 (v5.2.12+). Path separators may behave differently on Windows.

fix

Ensure glob patterns use forward slashes or update path handling.

affects: >=5.2.12

deprecatedLegacy support for -spec-v1 files will be removed in future major versions.

fix

Migrate all specs to Jasmine 3 syntax and remove legacy suffix.

affects: >=5.0.0

gotchaAtom's compile cache may cache package.json; changes to atomTestRunner may not take effect until restart.

fix

Restart Atom after modifying package.json.

affects: all

gotchaTypeScript specs require atom-ts-transpiler; custom runner file must be .js, not .ts.

fix

Use atom-ts-transpiler and keep custom runner as .js.

affects: all

breakingJasmine version upgrades (e.g., 3.8 to 3.10) may introduce new behavior or deprecations.

fix

Review Jasmine changelogs for breaking changes between versions.

affects: >=5.2.7

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Error: Cannot find module 'atom-jasmine3-test-runner'

Missing npm install or incorrect path in atomTestRunner.

fix

Run `npm install --save-dev atom-jasmine3-test-runner` and ensure package.json has the correct string.

TypeError: (0 , _atomJasmine3TestRunner.createRunner) is not a function

Using ESM import syntax instead of CommonJS require.

fix

Replace `import { createRunner } from '...'` with `const { createRunner } = require('...')`.

ReferenceError: jasmine is not defined

Using jasmine globals outside of spec files or before Jasmine is loaded.

fix

Ensure configuration function is called after Jasmine is loaded; use inside spec files or the config callback.

Error: Unrecognized token '...' (trying to parse .ts file)

TypeScript specs without atom-ts-transpiler configured.

fix

Install atom-ts-transpiler and add 'atomTranspilers' to package.json.
