Mock Communication for Electron's IPC

An API mimicking [Electron's](http://electron.atom.io/docs/latest/api/ipc-renderer/) [ipcMain](http://electron.atom.io/docs/latest/api/ipc-main/) and [ipcRenderer](http://electron.atom.io/docs/latest/api/ipc-renderer/). Swap out electron calls in your code in tests to access both mock renderer and main process IPC communication calls.

## Install

```

npm install electron-ipc-mock

```

## Usage

```js

const { ipcRenderer, ipcMain } = require('electron-ipc-mock')();

ipcMain.on('request', function (e, ...args) {

  console.log(args[0]); // 'hello'

  e.sender.send('response', 'world');

});

ipcRenderer.on('response', function (e, ...args) {

  console.log(args[0]); // 'world'

});

ipcRenderer.send('request', 'hello')

```

## Testing

```

npm test

```
