Karma plugin for snapshot testing with mocha.
npm install karma-mocha-snapshotSnapshot can be stored in different formats. Right now there are two formats supported: md and indented-md.
This format is preferred when you specify language for code blocks in an assertion plugin. With this format, code
editors will automatically highlight syntax of code blocks.
