UI automated testing framework powered by Node.js. It uses the Selenium WebDriver API.
Nightwatch works with the Selenium standalone server so the first thing you need to do is download the selenium server jar file selenium-server-standalone-2.x.x.jar
from the Selenium releases page:
https://selenium-release.storage.googleapis.com/index.html
Install Node.js and then:
$ git clone [email protected]:nightwatchjs/nightwatch.git
$ cd nightwatch
$ npm install
The tests for Nightwatch are written using Mocha exports interface but they can also be run with Nightwatch itself.
To run the unit tests using mocha, do:
$ npm test
To run the unit tests using Nightwatch, do:
$ npm run unit-tests
