Continuous CoffeeScript testing with Guard and Jasmine

Continuous CoffeeScript testing with Guard and Jasmine

This Gist shows how to set up a Rails project to practice BDD with CoffeeScript, Guard and Jasmine. You can see this setup in action on Vimeo

  • Install Gems with Bundler with bundle install
  • Define your guards with mate Guardfile
  • Initialize Jasmine with bundle exec jasmine init
  • Configure Jasmine with mate spec/support/yasmine.ym
  • Start Guard with bundle exec guard
  • Start Jasmine with bundle exec rake jasmine
  • Open your browser with open http://localhost:8888
  • Press the LiveReload button
  • Write your specs (example app_coffeescripts_math.coffee goes to app/coffeescripts/math.coffee)
  • See the Growl notifications
  • Write your code (example spec_coffeescripts_math_spec.coffee goes to app/coffeescripts/math_spec.coffee)
  • Watch the Jasmine report

That's it
