A test-driven JS assessment

This repo includes a set of tests for assessing the skills of a candidate for a JavaScript position.

How do I run the tests?

To use the tests, you will need to install Node -- you can do this via the download page or using Homebrew if you are on a Mac.

Note that on Windows, you may need to restart after installing Node.

You can clone or download this repo. Once you have done so, from the root directory of the repo, run:

npm install
node bin/serve

You can then view the tests in your browser at http://localhost:4444.

When you visit that page, all of the tests should be failing; your job is to get the tests to pass. To do this, you'll need to refer to the tests in the files in the tests/app directory, and edit the files in the app/ directory. Once you update a test, you can reload the test page in the browser to see whether it worked.

Writing Unit Tests

This repo uses Mocha and expect.js for the tests themselves. It uses the BDD style for authoring tests. Review the documentation or existing tests to learn the syntax for writing additional tests.
