TLDR

Install

Requires Node version 6 or above.

npm install --save-dev cypress-hyperapp-unit-test

also requires peer dependencies in your project

npm install cypress hyperapp

API

You can import this module from your own tests

import { mount } from 'cypress-hyperapp-unit-test'
// import or code state, action and view
beforeEach(() => {
  mount(state, actions, view)
})
// you get fresh mini-app running in each test

Use

In your Cypress spec files (the example below is from file cypress/integration/hello-world-spec.js) mount the application, just like you would "normally".

import { mount } from 'cypress-hyperapp-unit-test'
import { h } from 'hyperapp'
// view function we are testing
const view = (state, actions) => h('div', { class: 'greeting' }, 'Hello, World')
describe('Hello World', () => {
  beforeEach(() => {
    const state = {}
    const actions = {}
    // no state or actions for this simple example
    mount(state, actions, view)
  })
  it('shows greeting', () => {
    // use any Cypress command - we have
    // real Hyperapp application for testing
    cy.contains('.greeting', 'Hello, World')
  })
})

Start Cypress using $(npm bin)/cypress open and execute the spec. You have full end-to-end test run but with your component! Why waste time on unit testing inside synthetic DOM's blackbox if you could see the result, inspect the DOM, investigate how it works using time-travelling debugger?

Hello World shows greeting

Examples

Unit tests and E2E tests start looking very much alike. Compare TodoList unit test and TodoMVC end-to-end test.

API Extras

Cypress.main.setName('Joe')
Cypress.main
  ._getState()
  .its('name')
  .should('equal', 'Joe')
Cypress.main.setAge(37)
Cypress.main._getState().should('deep.equal', {
  name: 'Joe',
  age: 37
})

Note: the Cypress.main wraps returned Hyperapp actions with cy.then to queue the calls through the Cypress command queue. Thus the above code looks synchronous, but in reality there could be DOM updates, network calls, etc, and it still works.
