Serverless Testing with Mocha+Chai

[Carlo di Celico]

I'm working on a client-side MVC app (EmberJS+Firebase) that I'm developing using python's SimpleHTTPServer. Although Mocha+Chai is working well in the browser, if I want to test a certain webpage, I have to put all the test code in with the application code and test using chai-jquery.

Is there any way to 'point' mocha at a URI before running a block of assertions? I really want to avoid setting up all the node plumbing just to run tests if possible...
