Using baseUrl and options.url

[adamsea]

Hello,

Are there any samples of using the baseUrl option with a qunit test served via http? I currently have the following in my Gruntfile:

    qunit: {
        options: {
            coverage: {
                baseUrl: 'app/public/tests/qunit',
                htmlReport: 'app/public/tests/qunit/report/coverage',
                instrumentedFiles: 'temp/',
                src: ['app/public/app/**/*.js']
            }
        },
        all: {
            options: {
                urls: ['http://127.0.0.1:9090/tests/qunit/index.html']
            }
        }
    }

Which runs the tests successfully but doesn't not generate an accurate coverage report (claims 100% coverage on 0 files). An instrumented coverage.tmp file is placed in the plugin install directory, but that's it.

Thanks for any help you may be able to provide! -Eric

I am having this same problem. My options in my gruntfile are almost exactly the same and I'm experiencing the same issue.

Here's the qunit portion of my grunt file:

qunit: {
        all: {
            options: {
                urls: [
                    "http://localhost:8282/exsellsior/?test"
                ],
                coverage: {
                    src: ['js/**/*.js'],
                    instrumentedFiles: 'temp/',
                    htmlReport: 'coverage/html',
                    cloverReport: 'coverage/clover'
                }
            }
        }
    }

I've also noticed that the temp/ directory remains empty throughout the tests - so there are no instrumented files generated

Thanks!

I noticed "phantomjs.on('qunit.coverage', function(coverage) { ... })" never runs.

I had this problem as well and added baseUrl: '.' to my qunit.options.coverage, and that fixed it.

If this really is the fix, might be nice to make that the default, or at least document it better.

Unfortunately, @iangilman, this does not fix the problem. Besides, the baseUrl defaults to '.' already.

Interesting. I'm using 0.4.5 and explicitly setting baseUrl definitely fixes it for me. Here's my config:

        qunit: {
            coverage: {
                options: {
                    urls: [ "http://localhost:8000/test/coverage.html" ],
                    coverage: {
                        src: ['src/*.js'],
                        htmlReport: 'coverage/html/',
                        instrumentedFiles: 'temp/',
                        baseUrl: '.',
                        disposeCollector: true
                    }
                }
            }
        },

If I don't include the baseUrl, I get 100%s for everything; if I do, I get actual coverage numbers.

The other thing I found that was important was to make sure the files that matched my src setting were included on the page via <script> tag.

Anyway, sorry my fix isn't working for you!

I think the issue has been fixed with this pull request: https://github.com/asciidisco/grunt-qunit-istanbul/pull/34

Quick update: I was able to get this working with a modification to my baseUrl config. This was really due to my misunderstanding of the config (which was resolved once I looked through the code a bit more). In the example above my test url is 'http://127.0.0.1:9090/tests/qunit/index.html', which points to the physical path app/public/tests/qunit/index.html. However baseUrl is intended to be for the physical path of the host for the qunit page, in this case app/public. Once updated to that value I get sensible coverage reports.

I think the docs could stand a better example to explain this, so I'll create a PR to do that. Thanks for the help all!
