How to run all tests with node by specifying asterisk (*)?
To run all tests using Node.js by specifying an asterisk (*
), you can utilize test runners and frameworks that support glob patterns for test file matching. Here's an example using the popular test runner, Mocha:
Install Mocha and any other necessary testing dependencies as dev dependencies in your project:
shellnpm install mocha --save-dev
Create a test directory and place your test files inside it. For example, create a
test
directory at the root of your project and put your test files there.In your
package.json
file, add a test script that runs Mocha with the desired glob pattern:json"scripts": {
"test": "mocha test/*.js"
}
Run the test script using npm or Yarn:
shellnpm test
This command will execute Mocha and run all the test files (
*.js
) in thetest
directory.
Mocha will automatically match the test files using the glob pattern provided (test/*.js
in this case) and execute them.
You can adjust the glob pattern (*.js
) and the directory (test
) according to your specific test file structure.
Note that other test runners and frameworks may have different approaches or configurations for running tests using glob patterns. Refer to the documentation of your chosen test runner or framework for detailed instructions on how to specify glob patterns for running tests.
