README 

        

This readme file provides a brief overview of the file and folder structure

included in the default MontageJS project directory.



>IMPORTANT: Be sure to replace the contents of this readme file with information

relevant to your application before deploying the application or passing it on to

a client.



Project Structure

============



The default project directory includes the following files and folders:



* assets/ — Contains global style sheets and images for the application.

* core/  —  Reserved for the core modules of the application logic.

* index.html  —  Is the entry-point document for the application.

* node_modules/  —  Contains the code dependencies required in development.



    Includes Montage, the core framework, and Digit, a mobile-optimized user

    interface widget set by default. Since MontageJS uses the CommonJS module

    system, you can leverage the npm ecosystem for additional modules. To add

    dependencies (e.g., foo), use `npm install foo` in the project directory.



    NOTE: All packages in this directory must be included as dependencies

    in package.json.



* package.json  —  Describes the application and the dependencies included in

            the node_modules directory.

* README.md  —  The default readme file.

* run-tests.html  —  Is a page to run Jasmine tests manually in the browser.

* test/  —  Contains tests for the application.



    By default, this directory includes all.js, a module that points the test runner

    to all jasmine specs. To use this module run `npm install` to get the dependencies

    required to run unit tests.



* ui/  —  Contains the application user interface components.



    By default, this directory contains one component: main.reel (the Main

    user interface component).



In development, you can expand this project directory as necessary; for example,

depending on the project you may want to add the following folders:



* locale/  —  For localized content.

* scripts/  —  For JS libraries that do not support the CommonJS exports object

           and, therefore, have to be loaded using a `` tag.



Unit Testing

============



MontageJS uses some pure unit tests that are straightforward [Jasmine specs][1].



To install the test code, run `npm install` in your project folder. This installs the

the [montage-testing][2] package, which adds some useful utilities for writing

jasmine tests. You will need the file run-tests.html.



For an example of how we implement unit testing, see the [digit][3] repository:



* [run-tests][4] loads our test environment.

* `data-module="test/all"` inside the final script tag tells the system to load [test/all.js][5].

* all.js specifies a list of module ids for the runner to execute.



>Note that in this example, all the tests load a page in an iframe using

`TestPageLoader.queueTest()`. These are akin to integration tests since they test

the component in a real environment.



We also test some components by [mocking their dependencies][6].
