grunt-simple-mocha

A simple wrapper for running tests with Mocha. It's pretty much a cleaned up
and plugin-ized version of this helpful Gist by johnkpaul.

If you're looking to run client-side specs with PhantomJS, you might be
interested in grunt-mocha.

Updating from 0.2.x to 0.3.x

This task now depends on grunt 0.4.x. Please see the
grunt 0.3 to 0.4 migration guide for more details.

Installation

Install this grunt plugin next to your project's
Gruntfile.js with:
```
 npm install grunt-simple-mocha --save-dev
```
Then add this line to your project's grunt.js gruntfile:
```
 grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-simple-mocha');
```

Usage

In your grunt.js:

 grunt.initConfig({
  simplemocha: {
    //
    // These are passed directly to the mocha constructor. See:
    //   https://github.com/mochajs/mocha/blob/master/lib/mocha.js#L56-L74
    //
    options: {
      ui: 'bdd',
      reporter: 'tap',
      globals: ['window','document','$','should'],
      timeout: 3000,
      retries: 2,
      bail: false,
      slow: 2000,
      ignoreLeaks: false,
      fullTrace: true
      grep: 'users',
    },

    all: { src: ['test/**/*.js'] }
  }
});

// For this to work, you need to have run `npm install grunt-simple-mocha`
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-simple-mocha');

// Add a default task. This is optional, of course :)
grunt.registerTask('default', 'simplemocha');

Now, you can just run grunt simplemocha in your shell to run the tests. That's it!

Running tests

Run npm install && npm test

Updating from 0.1.x to 0.2.x
