Fast-failing zombie test
When I outside-in tdd my last web feature, I find the following useful to have zombie failing with a helpful error message when unable to find an element in a page.
Here is an example of this in the prime-factors kata. The tip is in the fail().
Browser = require("zombie");
describe("decomposition", function() {
var home = "http://localhost:5000/index.html";
var browser = new Browser();
it("displays the decomposition of the input number", function(done) {
browser.visit(home).
then(function () {
browser.fill("#number", "42")
.clickLink("#decompose");
}).
then(function() {
expect(browser.text("#decomposition")).toEqual("42 = 2 x 3 x 7");
done();
}).
fail(function(error) {
expect(error.toString()).toBeNull();
done();
});
});
});
