Tape With Promises

🚨 This package is depracated. 🚨

Tape version 5.x+ supports promises (and thus async/await) and so this module is no longer necessary.

If you’re still on Tape version 4

Please consider upgrading to Tape 5.x.

If you can’t right now, you can still install and use version 1.0.1 of this module:

npm install @small-tech/tape-with-promises@1.0.1

To switch from this module to Tape version 5.x+:

1. Install tape:

   npm install tape
   

2. Remove this module:

   npm remove @small-tech/tape-with-promises
   

3. In your test files, import the tape instead of this module:

   // Replace:
   
   import test from '@small-tech/tape-with-promises'
   
   // With:
   
   import test from 'tape'
   

About

Adds promise support (rejects(), doesNotReject()) to tape by decorating it using tape-promise.

Install

npm install --save-dev @small-tech/tape-with-promises

Use

import test from '@small-tech/tape-with-promises'

test('promises', async t => {
  await t.rejects(() => {
    return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
      setTimeout(() => {
        // This does, indeed, reject.
        reject('Oh, no!')
      }, 100)
    })
  })
  await t.doesNotReject(() => {
    return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
      setTimeout(() => {
        // This does, indeed, resolve.
        resolve('Yay!')
      })
    })
  })
})

If you save the above test in tests/index.js, you can run it with:

npx tape tests/**/*.js

Or, in your package.json file:

{
  "scripts": {
    "test": "tape tests/**/*.js"
  }
}

Test

npm -s test
