Testing

We use karma as test runner (unit test), protractor for E2E tests, and mocha as general testing framework.

All the stuff gets transpiled using karma-jspm, no minification and bundling gets executed.

Run front end tests: (karma)

npm run frontendtests

Run e2e tests: (protractor)

npm run e2etests

Run all the tests: (karma + protractor)

npm test

NOTE: protractor does not work very well with Mocha, so jasmine is used in place for e2e tests. E2E tests run on SauceLabs and they are publicly accessible.

Deploy

Each time a new commit is done in the master branch, a trigger will be launched. Then the application will be deployed to Azure at http://pollsapiclient.azurewebsites.net and on Heroku at http://pollsapiclient.herokuapp.com as well.

The deploy script is a postinstall npm script that will run only if NODE_ENV is set to production. Therefore, jspm is required as a production dependency.
