#Arrow

##Overview

Arrow is a test framework designed to promote test-driven JavaScript development. Arrow provides a consistent test creation and execution environment for both Developers and Quality Engineers.

Arrow aims to completely remove the line between development’s Unit tests, and Functional and Integration tests by providing a uniform way to create and execute both.

Arrow itself is a thin, extensible layer that marries JavaScript, NodeJS and Selenium. Arrow allows you to write tests using YUI-Test and execute those tests using NodeJS or Selenium. Additionally, Arrow provides a rich mechanism for building, organizing and executing test and test scenarios.

##Install

npm install -g yahoo-arrow

##Options

• --help display this help page

• --version display installed arrow version

• --report true/false. Creates report files in junit and json format, and also prints a consolidated test report summary on console

• --reportFolder : (optional) folderPath. creates report files under {folderPath}/arrow-report. (default: arrow-target/arrow-report under current directory)

• --testName comma separated list of test names defined in test descriptor. all other tests will be ignored

• --group comma separated list of groups defined in test descriptor, all other groups will be ignored

• --logLevel TRACE|DEBUG|INFO|WARN|ERROR|FATAL (default: INFO)

• --dimension a custom dimension file for defining ycb contexts

• --capabilities : (optional) the name of a json file containing webdriver capabilities required by your project

• --startProxyServer : (optional) true/false. Starts a proxy server, intercepting all selenium browser calls

##Examples

Below are some examples to help you get started.

###Unit test:
