Teaspoon showing some weird error on CircleCI

Question

I am using teaspoon for some javascript testing (written in CoffeeScript) on my development machine everything works great:

→ bundle exec rake teaspoon
Starting the Teaspoon server...
Teaspoon running default suite at http://127.0.0.1:58786/teaspoon/default
................

Finished in 0.02500 seconds
16 examples, 0 failures

But on the CircleCI it ends with following error.

$ bundle exec rake teaspoon --trace
** Invoke teaspoon (first_time)
** Invoke environment (first_time)
** Execute environment
** Execute teaspoon
Starting the Teaspoon server...
Teaspoon running default suite at http://127.0.0.1:60894/teaspoon/default
Failed to load: http://127.0.0.1:60894/teaspoon/default?reporter=Console bundle exec rake teaspoon --trace returned exit code 1

Can anyone help me with this error? Thanks

Answer 1

I work at CircleCI. It's a little difficult to figure out what's going on here just from the info above. Can you please ping us at [email protected] and we can get things sorted out?

Answer 2

The problem for me was that I had to add the following to config/initializers/assets.rb:

Rails.application.config.assets.precompile += %w( teaspoon-jasmine.js jasmine/1.3.1.js teaspoon-teaspoon.js teaspoon.css )

..and then restart the server.

This was because I am using jasmine and it needs to be pre-compiled in order to work.
