Definition: QUnit - Testing framework for JavaScript applications.
Definition: QUnit is a testing framework that provides a way to test complex software systems using JavaScript code. It uses asynchronous testing, which means that your tests can run on an API or a web server in real-time without actually doing anything. This makes it particularly useful for tests where you need to make decisions based on the data being passed to your application.
It has some cool features like:
1.
Real-time Testing
: Your tests can be run in real time, with changes to your test environment happening instantly.
2.
Replayable Tests
: You can replay any test that fails so that you can see where it went wrong and figure out why.
3.
Unit-Tests
: Each unit of the code is tested separately - this allows for more testing coverage than a single unit.
4.
Integration Tests
: These are tests that are run after a piece of software has been fully loaded into your application, to ensure that it's running as expected.
QUnit supports everything from DOM manipulation and input validation to database queries and network traffic analysis. It's widely used in the web development community.
