PPUnit is a test framework that supports parallelization and promises, inspired by Mocha.

Currently only supporting a BDD interface but PPUnit can be extended to include more.

Parallelization

By default all tests are run in series and all suites are run in parallel. Test and suite parallelism can
be changed on a case by case basis. You can also specifiy a test or suites level of exclusivity, limiting what the test
or suite can run with.

* Non exclusive - Execution is not restricted at all
* Locally exclusive - These items may not execute alongside any of its siblings.
* Globally exclusive - These items are the only things allowed to run during their execution.

There is a single rule that can not be changed:

Children suites can not run until their parents tests have completed

Basic Usage

A simple non asynchronous, non paralellized test case

describe('Suite', function () {
it('1 should equal 1', function () {
assert(1 === 1, '1 did not equal 1?!')
})
})

Promises

TODO: Fill in this section
Return a promise, it works as you would expect

Async tests

If the test takes an argument it will be considered async and will only be completed once that argument is executed

it('Should do things', function (done) {
setTimeout(done, 1000)
})

Marking a test as failed

You can throw, return an error, return a promise and fail it, or call done with a value

it('test1', function () {
throw new Error('Failed')
})

it('test2', function () {
return new Error('Failed')
})

it('test3', function () {
var promise = new Promise()

setTimeout(function () {
promise.fail(new Error('Because'))
}, 1000)

return promise
})

it('test4', function (done) {
done(new Error('Failed'))
})

it('test5', function (done) {
done('ermmm')
})

Setting exclusivity

Exclusivity is what controls an items paralellism

On a test (before/each, after/each, and test)

it('Should do something').nonExclusive()
it('Should do something').locallyExclusive()
it('Should do something').globallyExclusive()

On a suite

describe('suite', function () {...} ).nonExclusive()
describe('suite', function () {...} ).locallyExclusive()
describe('suite', function () {...} ).globallyExclusive()

Suites can also set the default exclusivity of all tests within its ancestry (includes child suites)

describe('suite', function () {
//All three tests would execute in parallel
it('test1', function () {...})
it('test2', function () {...})
it('test3', function () {...})
}).nonExclusiveTests()

describe('suite', function () {
//All three tests would execute in series and other suites tests may be running as well, this is the default
it('test1', function () {...})
it('test2', function () {...})
it('test3', function () {...})
}).locallyExclusiveTests()

describe('suite', function () {
//All three tests would execute in series and no other tests would be running, this should be avoided
it('test1', function () {...})
it('test2', function () {...})
it('test3', function () {...})
}).globallyExclusiveTests()

Skip and Only

A test or suite can be marked as skip, which causes everything within that items ancestry to be skipped,
unless it is marked as only

describe.skip('suite', function () {
//This test would be skipped
it('test1', function () {...})

//This test would run
it.only('test2', function () {...})
})

Multiple items can be marked as only, and only those items would be run

describe('suite', function () {
//test1 and test2 will run, test3 will be skipped
it.only('test1', function () {...})
it.only('test2', function () {...})
it('test3', function () {...})
})
