Create test files quickly from .yaml files. Put your test or specification title in a .yaml file, and create test files for Jest or Jasmine. Useful for developers and designers who want to write specification quickly, and write the specification test code later.
Install globally to use the CLI tool.
npm i -g quick-specsYou can use quick-specs either as a CLI tool, or inside your javacript code.
If you installed quick-specs globally, you can use the quickspecs tool at the command prompt. For example,
quickspecs -hUsage: quickspecs [options] <input>
Quickly generate specification files for Jasmine/Jest
Arguments:
input path to input filename in YAML format (default
extension: .yaml)
Options:
-V, --version output the version number
-o, --output <outfilename> specification filename
-p, --path <path> path to specification folder (default: "tests")
-t, --target <platform> target platform (choices: "jest", "jasmine", default:
"jest")
-h, --help display help for command- A list of test cases
Create example-1.yaml:
- Returns a positive number
- Converts negative numbers to positive
- Acccepts empty parameter listquickspecs example-1it('Returns a positive number', () => {
// Your code goes here...
expect(true).toBe(true);
})
it('Converts negative numbers to positive', () => {
// Your code goes here...
expect(true).toBe(true);
})
it('Acccepts empty parameter list', () => {
// Your code goes here...
expect(true).toBe(true);
})- A test suite with several test cases

- works with small numbers
- returns undefined when given non-numbers
- Returns a positive number

})Create my-specs.yaml
suite: My application
items:
- reads a yaml file
- writes a js fileIn your js code:
const qws = require('quick-specs');
let appSpecs = qws.load('my-specs.yaml');
let output = qws.buildSpecification(appSpecs)
console.log(output);You will see:
description('My application', () -> {
it('reads a yaml file', () => {
// Your code goes here
expect(true).toBe(true)
})
it('reads a yaml file', () => {
// Your code goes here
expect(true).toBe(true)
