JavaScript testing that just works.

Luna is a simple, modern, opinionated testing framework for JavaScript that has no configuration.

Yes, you read that right. You can get started and have your first tests running in less than a minute.

Getting started

Install Luna

npm install luna-testing

Add a test

Place this code in test/my-first-test.js

export function testThatLunaWorks(t) {
    const pizza = 'good';
    t.assert(pizza === 'good', 'Make sure that pizza is good!');
}

Run the test

npx luna test/my-first-test.js

You can also access the executable at ./node_modules/.bin/luna

To see what happens if a test fails change pizza to be bad!

Features

  • Supports ES6 modules out of the box and automatically bundles them
  • Runs tests in a browser by default
  • Allows test functions to be exported from anywhere in your codebase including source files
  • Supports concurrency to run test groups in parallel
  • Generates code coverage reports without having to install any other modules
  • Converts JSX code directly into React.createElement syntax
  • Uses a special assert function to provide meaningful errors when tests fail
  • Applies sourcemaps to error stack traces and code coverage reports automatically
  • Supports array and object comparisons automatically when using == and !=.
  • Uses Luna to test Luna (test inception!)
