Jasmine JavaScript Testing Framework Jasmine Test Suite Organization 1

Question 1

Which Jasmine function defines a group of related test specs?

Accepted Answer

describe()

Answer

describe() is Jasmine's primary way to group specs into a named suite, and it can be nested.

Question 2

Which Jasmine function defines a single test specification?

Accepted Answer

it()

Answer

it() creates an individual spec; the string argument is the human-readable description shown in results.

Question 3

Which function runs a setup callback before each spec inside a describe block?

Accepted Answer

beforeEach()

Answer

beforeEach() registers a function that Jasmine calls before every it() in its containing describe block.

Question 4

What does afterAll() do within a Jasmine describe block?

Accepted Answer

Runs once after all specs in the block have completed

Answer

afterAll() fires a single time after every spec inside its describe block finishes, useful for expensive teardown.

Question 5

How do you disable an entire describe suite without deleting it?

Accepted Answer

xdescribe()

Answer

Prefixing describe with x (xdescribe) marks all contained specs as pending without removing any code.
