npm error ELIFECYCLE while running the test

Question

I am using mocha-phantomjs setup for unit testing. I have following package.json scriot to run the tests.

\"scripts\": {
\"test\": \"npm run testFlickr\",
\"         


        

Answer 1

This is a problem when using npm run, it has to do with Mocha exiting with code !== 0 whenever a test fails. If you are on Windows try this:

"scripts": {
  "test": "npm run testFlickr || ECHO.",
  "testFlickr": "mocha-phantomjs ./test/FlickrTest.html || ECHO." 
}
