flip-tests

Quickly flip javascript tests between: only <--> disabled <--> default <--> only.

What

Flips tests recursively in current path.

Flip between:

describe.only <--> xdescribe <--> describe <--> describe.only
it.only <--> xit <--> it <--> it.only

Also:

• Ignores files in .gitignore (if it exists)
• Will not change if not at start of line (or proceeded by blank space)
• Will maintain indentation
• Supports paths with spaces

Why

Say you a working on a feature. You have changed some code under test. You have several tests marked describe.only() and/or it.only. These tests under test might passing (or not). You want to check that your other tests (not marked .only()) still pass. But you don't want to muddy the ouput with the tests that you have marked with .only().

This is where flip-tests comes to the rescue.

Prerequisites

• xargs
• sed (OSX inbuilt version tested only)
• ripgrep

Works with mocha, jasmine, jest and any other test runner that uses describe and it.
