How to run Node.js tests in your browser - @mantoni
Mon, 29. April 2013 Testing hybrid project is just too difficult. It should be simple to write sources and tests without any boilerplate for Node.js and browsers, and run it headlessly on a build server. Please also read the follow up post: How to run Node.js tests in your browser with Mocha. Running JavaScript directly in Phantom.JS Phantom.JS is a headless WebKit browser. If you have not heard a
JSHint 2.0.0
JSHint 2.0.0 Anton Kovalyov May 7th, 2013 WARNING: This release introduces backwards incompatible changes. JSHint 2.0.0 is out! This version hits a pretty big milestone for the project: this is the first JSHint release for which I'm not the biggest contributor. I personally believe this fact validates JSHint as a successful open source project. And I'm extremely thankful to all you who file bug re
Use ECMAScript 6 Today | Envato Tuts+
Today, ECMAScript 6 is in the process of being finalized. ECMAScript is the foundation of JavaScript and, hence, exploring the proposed features today also means that we get a sneak peak at how we will be writing JavaScript in the near future! In this article, we'll explore ten new features, with a significant focus on tools, browsers and transpilers. A Brief History: ECMA, ECMAScript and JavaScri
Get Functional with Underscore-Contrib
TL;DR - Fogus and Jeremy Ashkenas published the underscore-contrib repo recently which is loaded with functional JavaScript goodness based on the popular underscore library. I walk through a few examples of how I use it in the hopes you’ll get interested in working out new ways to solve your own day-to-day issues. Table of Contents! Background How to get it Those promiscuous functions Dates… effin
Server-side HTML vs. JS Widgets vs. Single-Page Web Apps
Server-side HTML vs. JS Widgets vs. Single-Page Web Apps At the recent GOTO Chicago conference, I gave a talk on "Frontend Architectures: from the prehistoric to the Post-modern." In just my first 10 months at Coursera, I've experienced the joys and woes of many different frontend architectures, and I wanted to share what I learnt. I detail everything in the slides, but I'll summarize my thoughts

Welcome, to the wonderful world of noBackend, where frontend developers build full stack apps, without thinking about the backend. // create new account signUp("joe@exam.pl", "secret") // store an object store.add({ type: "task", title: "remember the milk" }) // convert a page to PDF convert( document.body ) .to( 'report.pdf' ) .download() // reset a password resetPassword("joe@exam.pl") // send a
generators in v8 — wingolog
Hey y'all, ES6 generators have landed in V8! Excellent! Many of you know what that means already, but for those of you that don't, a little story. A few months ago I was talking with Andrew Paprocki over at Bloomberg. They use JavaScript in all kinds of ways over there, and as is usually the case in JS, it often involves communicating with remote machines. This happens on the server side and on th
Backbone, RequireJS, Jasmine, PhantomJS, and Grunt · Hidenari's Random Thougths
January 10, 2013 Following the yesterday’s post. This time, using PhantomJS and Grunt. Testem does pick up PhantomJS and can run against it. But, maybe some people just want to use Grunt because they use Grunt for something else such as for making a build. Setting up directories First, let’s create two directories: app and test. ‘app’ holds the application and ‘test’ of course contains test stuff.
Why coroutines won’t work on the web
The topic of coroutines (or fibers, or continuations) for JavaScript comes up from time to time, so I figured I’d write down my thoughts on the matter. I admit to having a soft spot for crazy control-flow features like continuations, but they’re unlikely ever to make it into ECMAScript. With good reason. The big justification for coroutines in JavaScript is non-blocking I/O. As we all know, asynch

Chrome拡張では、Background pages よりも Event pages を使用したほうが良い - よんちゅBlog
これからChrome拡張を作る方には是非知っておいて欲しい機能、Event pages についての話です。 Event pages は、作成したChrome拡張によっては、必ずしも使用できるわけではありませんが、もし可能なら積極的に使用してほしいと思います。 公式ドキュメントでも、Background pages のページ冒頭には、以下の様な注意書きがなされています。 Caution: Consider using event pages instead.

require.js 環境で mocha + expect + testem を使った JavaScript テスト - naoyaのはてなダイアリー
先日書いた自分用アプリケーションのひな形 http://d.hatena.ne.jp/naoya/20130503/1367581629 http://d.hatena.ne.jp/naoya/20130504/1367640512 これに、JavaScript のテスト環境も追加したい。 結論からいくと、フレームワークには mocha + expect、ランナーは testem を使うことにした。ついでにテストダブルライブラリとして Sinon.js も有効にした。 ちなみに今回の文脈は End to End のテストではなくてユニットテスト周りのおはなしです。 mocha + expect JavaScript のこの辺のテスト周りは今もいろいろなツールの整備が進んでいて、今回採用した以外にも Jasmin や QUnit そのほか色んな物がある。昨今の状況に関しては 先日の HTML
