PhpStorm 6.0.1 Web Help

To get access to this dialog box, enable the JSTestDriver bundled plugin.

In this dialog box, create a configuration to be used for running JavaScript unit tests in the browser against a JSTestDriver server. Configurations of this type enable running unit tests based on the JSTestDriver Assertion, Jasmine, and QUnit frameworks.

This section provides descriptions of the configuration-specific items, as well as the toolbar and options that are common for all run/debug configurations.

The dialog box consists of the following tabs and areas:

Configuration Tab

In this tab, specify the tests to run, the configuration files to use, and the server to run the tests against.

Test

In this area, tell PhpStorm where to find the tests to execute and how to get test runner configuration files that define which test files to load and in which order. The main approaches are:

  • Specify the location of one or several previously created configuration files.
  • Point at the target test file, test case, or test method, and then specify the location of the corresponding configuration file.
The way to find tests and configuration files is defined in the Test drop-down list. This choice determines the set of other controls in the area.
