Jellyfish -- Browser launcher and Javascript execution engine.

Jellyfish bridges the gap between server and client side javascript by allowing control of all the major browsers from a node script.

From running unit tests across platforms, to automating browser based workflows, jellyfish aims to free javascript from the confines of a single environment.

Install

npm install jellyfish

Or from source:

git clone git://github.com/admc/jellyfish.git 
cd jellyfish
npm link .

Platforms

MacOSX 10.6
Ubuntu 10.x

Browsers

Firefox 3.x, 4b
Google Chrome
Safari (MacOSX)
Selenium 2/WebDriver
Sauce Labs OnDemand
Zombie (headless node.js browser)

(Provides hooks to Saucelabs OnDemand platform allowing execution in all major browsers.)

Usage

npm require

var jellyfish = require('jellyfish'),
  , assert = require('assert');

init a browser (createFirefox, createChrome, createZombie)

var browser = jellyfish.createFirefox();

goto a web site

browser.go("http://www.jelly.io")

verify the title

.js("document.title", function(o) {
  assert.equal(o.result, "Jelly.io: Jellyfish Home")
})

run some local javascript

.jsfile("./test.js", function(o) {
  assert.equal(o.result, "alerted: Jellyfish local file loaded successfully!")
})

run some remote javascript, stop the browser, then exit

.jsurl("http://jelly.io/test.js", function(o) { 
  assert.equal(o.result, "alerted: Jellyfish remote file loaded successfully!")
  browser.stop(function() {
    setTimeout(process.exit, 2000);
  })
})

Reporting

var jellyfish = require('jellyfish')

var browser = jellyfish.createFirefox(function(){
  browser.couch({uri:'my couch url', port:5984, db:'mydbname'})
});

// You can just do browser.couch() and it will default to:
// {uri:'localhost', port:5984, db:'jellyfish'}

// Do stuff and it will automatically get reported to couch!
