On the Refinery29 Mobile Web Team, codenamed "Bicycle", all of our unit tests are written using Jasmine, an awesome BDD library written by Pivotal Labs. We recently switched how we set up data for tests from declaring and assigning to closures, to assigning properties to each test case's this object, and we've seen some awesome benefits from doing such.
Up until recently, a typical unit test for us looked something like this:

A curated list by Eric Elliott and friends. Suggest links at the original in the comments section or in the website incarnation.
This fork includes screen-captures of the websites, self-descriptions (which appear within quotation marks) from those sites and some metadata like publication date and GitHub stars and forks. It also may lag behind the original as new links are added there. Commentary is almost entirely from Eric Elliott’s original gist: a few summary descriptions were added for sites that omit capsule descriptions.
Help us turn this into a proper website!

Compilation of questions and answers about Relay from React.js Conf.

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.
Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.
