test command line

in package.json

"test": "mocha --compilers js:babel-core/register --require ./test/test_helper.js --recursive ./test"

when babel starts compile, it look for a .babelrc in the current directory of the file being transpiled. we didn't have .bablerc so .bablerc is added with following code

{
  "presets": ["react", "es2015", "stage-1"]
}

run test

$ npm test

write your test case

Wow...does chai uses jQuery for its test simulation?

[gnujoow]
