mocha-froth


Fuzzer for mocha testing. Or any javascript testing suite, really. This package provides a function that returns an array of random strings. You know, a fuzzer.

Installation

``sh
npm install --save-dev mocha-froth
`

Usage

Import froth into your project

`javascript
const froth = require('mocha-froth')
`

Use the syntax froth(num, max, opt)where:

num* is the number of strings generated
max* is the maximum string length
opt* is an object of options for characters to include

`javascript
opt = {
// Set to true to include tests with...
none: true, // Empty string
whitespace: true, // Various whitespace chars
quotes: true, // Combinations of quotes
backslashing: true, // Combinations of backslashes
symbols: true, // Various symbols
foreign: true, // Foreign chars
alphanumeric: true, // Ordinary letters and numbers
}
`

mocha-froth will return an array of strings you can use to test your code.

$3

Create ten random strings, each up to twenty characters (default):

`javascript
console.log( froth() )
// [ '8\\ёðNàЧ,', 'µ', '\\,нcy', '?O¬ìè¶ſ\r4á%"Е~', '', 'ИôAàяjùgzH%хйf', 'd\r\nïЧо', '«&pcj→ъгPfЬа|h', 'ñgMſииe&?“3ьXî¢òдq<ц', 'Un5tĸ' ]
`

Create five strings up to ten characters:

`javascript
console.log( froth(5,10) )
// [ '¢m\'\'\'ý7\'', 'óé€с-', 'фяþnЭOо', '', 'ykUбáФ¿ŷ¢С' ]
`

Same as above, but without foreign characters:

`javascript
console.log( froth(5,10,{foreign:false}) )
// [ 'VP"""t¬mK²', '²L6)>\r\nV', 'v,→“', '*e8', '→' ]
`

Testing

`sh
npm test
