karma-spec-reporter's Introduction

karma-spec-reporter

Test reporter, that prints detailed results to console (similar to mocha's spec reporter).

Usage

To use in your own Node.js project, just execute

npm install karma-spec-reporter --save-dev

This will download the karma-spec-reporter and add the dependency to package.json.

Then add 'spec' to reporters in karma.conf.js, e.g.

reporters: ['spec']

Take a look at the karma-spec-reporter-example repository to see the reporter in action.

Configuration

To limit the number of lines logged per test or suppress specific reporting, use the specReporter configuration in your karma.conf.js file

//karma.conf.js
...
  config.set({
    ...
      reporters: ["spec"],
      specReporter: {
        maxLogLines: 5,             // limit number of lines logged per test
        suppressSummary: true,      // do not print summary
        suppressErrorSummary: true, // do not print error summary
        suppressFailed: false,      // do not print information about failed tests
        suppressPassed: false,      // do not print information about passed tests
        suppressSkipped: true,      // do not print information about skipped tests
        showBrowser: false,         // print the browser for each spec
        showSpecTiming: false,      // print the time elapsed for each spec
        failFast: true,             // test would finish with error when a first fail occurs
        prefixes: {
          success: '    OK: ',      // override prefix for passed tests, default is '✓ '
          failure: 'FAILED: ',      // override prefix for failed tests, default is '✗ '
          skipped: 'SKIPPED: '      // override prefix for skipped tests, default is '- '
        }
      },
