Screenshot

Features

  • Shows a Test Explorer in the Test view in VS Code's sidebar with all detected tests and suites and their state
  • Adds CodeLenses to your test files for starting and debugging tests
  • Adds Gutter decorations to your test files showing the tests' state
  • Adds line decorations to the source line where a test failed
  • Shows a failed test's log when the test is selected in the explorer
  • Lets you choose test suites or individual tests in the explorer that should be run automatically after each file change
  • Forwards the console output from Jasmine to a VS Code output channel

Getting started

  • Install the extension
  • Restart VS Code and open the Test view
  • Run / Debug your tests using the Run / Debug icons in the Test Explorer or the CodeLenses in your test file

Configuration

The following configuration properties are available:

Property Description
jasmineExplorer.config The location of the Jasmine config file (relative to the workspace folder) (default: spec/support/jasmine.json)
jasmineExplorer.env Environment variables to be set when running the tests
jasmineExplorer.nodePath The path to the node executable to use. By default it will attempt to find it on your PATH, if it can't find it or if this option is set to null, it will use the one shipped with VS Code
jasmineExplorer.nodeArgv The arguments to the node executable to use. To enable automatic typescript, import ts-node package and use these arguments: ["--require", "ts-node/register"]
jasmineExplorer.debuggerPort The port for running the debug sessions (default: 9229)
jasmineExplorer.breakOnFirstLine Setting to true injects a breakpoint at the first line of your test, (default: false)
testExplorer.codeLens Show a CodeLens above each test or suite for running or debugging the tests
testExplorer.gutterDecoration Show the state of each test in the editor using Gutter Decorations
testExplorer.onStart Retire or reset all test states whenever a test run is started
testExplorer.onReload Retire or reset all test states whenever the test tree is reloaded

Commands

The following commands are available in VS Code's command palette, use the ID to add them to your keyboard shortcuts:

ID Command
test-explorer.reload Reload tests
test-explorer.run-all Run all tests
test-explorer.run-file Run tests in current file
test-explorer.run-test-at-cursor Run the test at the current cursor position
test-explorer.cancel Cancel running tests

Troubleshooting

All console output from Jasmine is forwarded to a VS Code output channel called "Jasmine Tests", this is often useful in tracking down problems.

If the "Jasmine Tests" output channel doesn't show up, the Test view doesn't show your tests or anything else doesn't work as expected (and can't be explained from Jasmine's console output), you can turn on diagnostic logging using one of the following configuration options (note: in multi-root workspaces, these options are always taken from the first workspace folder):

  • jasmineExplorer.logpanel: Write diagnotic logs to an output panel called "Jasmine Explorer Log"
  • jasmineExplorer.logfile: Write diagnostic logs to the given file

There is a bug in Node >= 10.6 that breaks this adapter. If you're using a version of Node affected by this bug, add "jasmineExplorer.nodePath": null to your configuration as a workaround.

If you think you've found a bug, please file a bug report and attach the diagnostic logs.
