💖 JASMINE(1) 💖

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let me tell you about jasmine — the JavaScript Testing Framework. she's a user command, she lives in section 1 of the manual, and she is literally the moment. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

jasmine — JavaScript Testing Framework. that's it, that's her. no cap. 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

jasmine [command] [options] [files] [--]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

💅 Commands:

  • init — initialize jasmine. sets the whole thing up, the way that she just does. ✨
  • examples — install examples. so you can see her in action, iykyk. 🍓
  • help, -h — show help. the "hey bestie what do I do" button. 🫶
  • version, -v — show jasmine and jasmine-core versions. flex the numbers. 💜
  • enumerate — enumerate suites and specs. lists them all out, main character energy. 👑

If no command is given, Jasmine specs will be run. that's right — no command, no problem, she just gets to work. 🔥

🌈 OPTIONS 🌈

  • --parallel=N — Run in parallel with N workers. N is your choice, queen. ✨
  • --parallel=auto — Run in parallel with an automatically chosen number of workers. she picks. she always picks right. 💅
  • --no-color — turn off color in spec output. muted, minimal, still iconic.
  • --color — force turn on color in spec output. the rainbow is non-negotiable. 🌈
  • --filter= — filter specs to run only those that match the given regular expression. regex girlies rise. 🔍
  • --filter-path= — run only the spec or suite that matches the given path, e.g. --filter-path='["parent suite name","child suite name","spec name"]'. very specific, very demure. 🎀
  • --helper= — load helper files that match the given string. helpers are the besties behind the scenes. 🫶
  • --require= — load module that matches the given string. bring your faves along. 💜
  • --fail-fast — stop Jasmine execution on spec failure. no dwelling, we move. 💀
  • --config= — path to the Jasmine configuration file. point her at the blueprint. 🗺️
  • --reporter= — path to reporter to use instead of the default Jasmine reporter. swap the narrator, the plot stays. 📖
  • --verbose — print information that may be useful for debugging configuration. she will tell you everything, and honestly? good. 💖
  • -- — marker to signal the end of options meant for Jasmine. the little "ok we're done here" line. ✋

The given arguments take precedence over options in your jasmine.json. yeah — the command line wins, always, periodt. 👑

The path to your optional jasmine.json can also be configured by setting the JASMINE_CONFIG_PATH environment variable. so if you like env vars better, that's valid too. 🌸

jasmine-core v5.11.0 — she's on it, she's updated, she's slaying. ⭐

lowkey a whole testing framework and highkey the blueprint. run your specs, bestie. 💅

that's the whole page, mwah. 💖

sign-off time: this was jasmine v5.11.0, dated May 2026, filed under JASMINE(1). no cap, go write some tests. 🦋✨
