nodejs-testing

Provide integration with VS Code using the node:test runner. Simply install the extension and start running tests, no setup required.*

This extension requires Node.js >=19: node:test is quite new and did not offer features we need in prior versions.

Having Problems? Read this!

• The extension looks for files that use the Node.js test runner naming convention. Make sure your files are named correctly!

• The Node.js test runner only supports running JavaScript files. If you have a compilation step, you'll need to make sure that runs with sourcemaps so we can figure out where tests appear in your source code. For example, for TypeScript, set "sourceMap": true in your tsconfig.json.

• If tests aren't initially found in your workspace folder, this extension won't keep watching for changes. Manually run the "refresh tests" action if you later add some (or just reload your window.)

Configuring

• nodejs-testing.include is the list of directories in which to look for test files, relative to your workspace folder. Defaults to ['./'].
• nodejs-testing.exclude is the list of glob patterns that should be excluded from the search. Defaults to ['**/node_modules/**'].
• nodejs-testing.concurrency is how many test files to run in parallel. Setting it to 0 (default) will use the number of CPU cores - 1.
• nodejs-testing.nodejsPath is the path to the Node.js binary to use for running tests. If unset, will try to find Node on your PATH.
