brunch-qunit-tests.md

This is an example of how to write qunit style tests for brunch.io projects and the required setup

config.coffee

# add this to the end of the exports object in the config file
  test:
    ui: 'qunit'

test-helpers.js

// This file will be automatically required when using `brunch test` command.
var chai = require('chai');

module.exports = {
    ok: function(state, message) {
        chai.assert.ok(state, message);
    },
    notEqual: function(actual, expected, message) {
        chai.assert.notEqual(actual, expected, message);
    },
    equal: function(actual, expected, message) {
        chai.assert.equal(actual, expected, message);
    },
    equals: function(actual, expected, message) {
        this.equal(actual, expected, message);
    },
    deepEqual: function(actual, expected, message) {
        chai.assert.deepEqual(actual, expected, message);
    }
};

xmodule-test.js
