[jira] [Commented] (CB-413) Node based tests are useless in Windows

["Patrick Mueller (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-413?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13241853#comment-13241853 ] 

Patrick Mueller commented on CB-413:
------------------------------------

The Contextify dependency comes via jsdom. 

Note that Contextify is also a problem on the Mac, for some versions of node, due to some confusion re:32/64 bit compilation, or something.

So, it would be good to replace jsdom with something else.

Note, I've already been bugging folks about lingering {{alert()}}'s in the code base, which also do not work in node.  I think we should look at a goal of making the Cordova base built-in plugins runnable in node without hacks like jsdom.  Namely, our own hack.  New module for node, in {{test}} called {{window-emulator.js}} or something, that we require from {{runner.js}}.  Create a new fake window object, add it to node's {{global}}.  I assume bits of {{document}} are required as well.

> The node based tests depend on Contextify which is not avaiable for windows.
> As a result, I currently have to manually step through code, add console.logs, and alerts, and other less than optimal methods for verifying the correctness of the output code.
