My tests are consistently failing in mocha-phantomjs, but they work fine when ran through the browser. How would I work out what's causing them to fail?

I assume running locally produces the same result? Try phantomjs --remote I debugger sport=9000 lib/mocha-phantomjs.coffee tests.html spec for debugging.

Phantomjs definitely has its quircks. And by quircks I mean big bugs. If you are doing heavy DOM manipulation and verification, or relying on more recent DOM functionality, you might not want to use mocha-phantomjs. Sauce labs is really awesome if you haven't seen them.

Closing for now. Reopen if you have more information that it is not phantomjs specific.
