@bluebone,

Sorry, we do not yet integrate with test swarm, and currently do not have the bandwidth to add it, but would love to help anyone who is interested in adding that support as we are an open source project. Having said that JsTestDriver supports out of the box running tests on multiple browsers in a continuous build environment, so the need for something like Test Swarm is bit reduced.

Im relatively new to jstestDriver and Im evaluating JavaScript test frameworks for an upcoming project My question is “does jstestDriver support
dispatching jobs to a testswarm server or is this support planned? If so
how does/will one come about that?

How do I test the DOM without injecting it?
jQuery(document).append(‘blah’)
does not seem to work…

@TJ,

Yes we would be interested in helping. One thing that JsTestDriver’s goals is to become THE way to run your test, not another assertion framework. For this reason JsTestDriver allows for plugins which allow you to put any assertion framework on top of it. We already have QUnit, YahooTest, and are working on Jasmine. Since we have already taken care of capturing the browser(s) running in continues builds and ability to remotely control the test, IDE plugins, I think it is a very nice fit to TestSwarm. JsTestDriver would take care of Running the test, TestSwarm would create a farm of JsTestDrivers, and than the user could choose any assertion framework on top of it to run their tests.

We even took care of on the fly instrumentation of JS code for code coverage and injection and clean up of DOM between tests, and remote logging. So I think this would be a great fit.

What do you say? email us on js-test-driver@googlegroups.com and lets figure out how we can help

You should help with JSpec I am writting TestSwarm in Ruby .. since John’s php implementation is pretty weak, that combined with JSpec’s current features and 3.x features it will be extremely powerful
