**referee** is in your unit tests, deciding who passes and who fails.

It is a test-framework agnostic assertion and expectation library, designed to work with your choice of test runner.

Some highlights:

- Rich library of assertions

- Supports custom assertions

- Complementary `assert/refute` (`refute` is referee's `assert.not`)

- Evented: Emits success and failure events

- Failing assertions throw exceptions by default, but can be configured to not

- API to add custom assertions that provides quite a bit of plumbing for free

- 100% test coverage (enforced with `test-check-coverage` in `package.json`)

**referee** works in browsers (including old and rowdy ones, like IE11) and Node ([LTS versions](https://github.com/nodejs/Release#release-schedule)).

It will define itself as an AMD module if you want it to (i.e. if there's a

`define` function available).
