Opinion wanted: Testing Angular Project -> Protractor + Jasmine/Mocha/etc or The Intern?

[Olivier Clément]

Hi all, 

I was just starting looking into The Intern project and find it quite interesting despite its use of AMD modules (which I personally don't really like compared to commonJS, but that's me)

And then there's of course Protractor tailored for Angular that does part of what the Intern does.

And naturally there comes the question: what would be an optimal, easiest to use solution for complete testing of an angular project?

The Intern seems to offer quite a lot in one package: E2E, Behavior and Unit Testing, Reporting, Coverage, etc. easy integration with browserstack/saucelabs if needed (although it's probably not something we'd use internally at my workplace)

While it seems the more "traditional" solution for angular projects  is to manually setup the different puzzle pieces together, involving (probably) more work, at least initially.

So what's the community's opinion on this, preferred solution to have a compelte testing solution for your projects?

I am specifically thinking about Single Page Apps here

Thanks!

No one?

FWIW, I would go with Protractor. Like you said, it's really tailored to Angular projects. Protractor fits into automation schemes well, and there are coverage packages out there for it. You can automate it all with Grunt/Gulp.

I should also mention that I've never heard of The Intern Project before now, but I plan on giving it a look.

Just for clarity, the Intern website is http://theintern.io/

Thanks  for the reply

I tend to think that way as well
