How do I focus on one spec in jasmine.js?

Question

I have a bunch of failing specs from a rather large architectural change. I\'d like to work on fixing them one by one by tagging each one with \'focus\'.

Does jasmin

You can create your all your specs up front but disable them with xdescribe and xit until you're ready to test them.

describe('BuckRogers', function () {
  it('shoots aliens', function () {
    // this will be tested
  });

  xit('rescues women', function () {
    // this won't
  });
});

// this whole function will be ignored
xdescribe('Alien', function () {
  it('dies when shot', function () {
  });
});
