Exit Meteor Tinytest after after all tests have been completed

Question

When running meteor test-packages ./ from automated tests (e.g. grunt files), it would help if meteor exited after the tests were run. Is there a way to do that? The command line help doesn't suggest anything of that sort and this issue suggests it's not possible.

Answer 1

Tinytest is designed to run continuously and reactively test a set of packages.

For continuous integration scenarios, there's a tool called spacejam, which calls meteor-testpackages, waits for the tests to complete, then sends a SIGTERM signal to meteor.

$ npm install -g spacejam
$ spacejam test-packages ./

spacejam: spawning meteor

spacejam: meteor mongodb is ready
