How to test javascript interface?

Question

JavaScript

Good morning.

Tell me, what are the libraries for functional testing of javascript interfaces? Something at the input: click on the button, check that a window has popped up, enter text in the field, send the form, check the answer ...

At first I tried to do this through selenium from the server - a thankless task. The code is too complex.

I thought, since this case works on the client, then it is most likely necessary to test it on the client. But I did not find any libraries for this. Who uses what? Please share. The code is written in jquery.

Answer 1

phantomjs.org

Answer 2

Hmm... It seemed to me that "testers" are doing all this, i.e. people.

Answer 3

Testing, roughly speaking, can be divided into two types:
1. Unit and end-to-end testing (code testing) - there are many solutions, for example, karma and jasmine .
2. GUI testing - I can only remember selenium and a tutorial from Yandex

Answer 4

why not use selenium on the client? he is essentially a bot, once on the client and works

Answer 5

Gremlins.js I think this is what you need
