Dojo Object Harness v2

History

I was on the search for a JavaScript unit testing package, and kind of by accident (LOL) I stumbled across DOH, the actual dojo object harness, contained in dojo (at least currently). I started happily using it, but as you know it always comes one thing and then another which you need. So I started adding and adding and felt that the (old) doh was just not flexible enough and had some drawbacks. Therefore I pulled out the best pieces and glued it back together and out came this.

Features

The features the (old) doh provides and doh2 does too:

• asynchronous tests
• assert functions

Features doh2 added or fixed

• streamlined synch and asynch test writing, no notable difference for the test writer anymore - much easier
• no need to know about doh.Deferred anymore, it's all wrapped in the test object passed to the test function, just use assert*() everywhere
• make doh.pause() work again
• doh.pause() can also be used inside a test to stop the test run from within a test
• allow returning values, such as test results for the good case
• namespaced all doh functionalities, and separated them into multiple files doh, doh.assert, doh.util, doh.Deferred

Examples

See the file "selftests.js" it provides tests with extensive explaination.
