vows-reporters

##vows-reporters A collection of vows reporters that supports concurrent instances of each type.

###Reporters in the collection:

• spec

• A direct port of the 'spec' runner from vows

• Easy for humans to read

• Fixes some whitespace issues from the original

• Xunit

• Produces output meant for Jenkins CI. It tries to divide the tests into a hierarchy of levels for easier navigation in the Jenkins test report.

• Use the colon (':') character to separate levels. For example if you had a topic (or a subtopic, or combination) that looked like this:

  Monkeys: grooming

  then there would be a "Monkeys" folder in Jenkins with a "grooming" folder inside of it, containing the test results.

Using vows-reporters programmatically

this.reporter = require('vows-reporters')('Xunit');

If you want to supply options, do so as the second argument to vows-reporters, e.g.

this.reporter = require('vows-reporters')('Xunit', {writer : myWriter});

####Options

• writer
• A "writer" is simply something with a "write" function (such as process.stdout). You can easily make your own writer and pass it to vows-reporters, and the test output will be sent to your writer's write function.
• default: process.stdout
• writeTotals
• Write the number of honored, broken, errored, etc. tests when the suite is finished.
• default: true
