Fork of sindresorhus' awesome AVA test runner to support TypeScript out of the box, without a prior build step.
This is a fork of the official AVA repository with a couple of minimally invasive changes. Uses ts-node/register instead of Babel. Not the nicest solution, but it works pretty well.
npm install --save-dev ava-ts ava ts-node
# Using yarn:
yarn add --dev ava-ts ava ts-nodeWrite your tests in TypeScript as you would usually do and import from ava, not from ava-ts, just as you would always do.
// test.ts
import test from 'ava'
test('one plus two equals three', t => {
t.is(1 + 2, 3)
})Instead of running ava, just run the ava-ts CLI tool instead. That's it!
It will use all the same options and defaults you know from AVA, but searches for *.ts files instead of *.js.
It comes with most of the great features you love:
- Zero-configuration setup
- Parallel test execution
- Snapshot testing
- All your favorite reporters
There are a few limitations, however:
- No babel support
- No power assert
MIT. The fork as well as the original.
