Grunt plugin for running Mocha browser specs in a headless browser (PhantomJS)

Install this grunt plugin next to your project's grunt.js gruntfile with: npm install grunt-mocha

Then add this line to your project's grunt.js gruntfile at the bottom:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-mocha');

Also add this to the grunt.initConfig object in the same file:

mocha: {
  index: ['specs/index.html']
},

Replace specs/index.html with the location of your mocha spec running html file.

Now you can run the mocha task with grunt mocha, but it won't work. That's because you need...

This task is for running Mocha tests in a headless browser, PhantomJS. See the FAQ on how to install PhantomJS.

You also need to have Mocha included and called inside your spec html file. This task does not do that for you, please do it yourself. If you do not know what I am talking about, how did you find this page?

You must also write tests. How much detail do I need to give here?

Growl support is optional. I'm not sure what the Windows situation is with growl.

The PhantomJS -> Grunt superdimensional conduit uses alert. If you have disabled or aliased alert in your app, this won't work. I have conveniently set a global PHANTOMJS on window so you can conditionally override alert in your app.
