# Get NPM dependencies:
npm install

# Install global NPM dependencies:
npm -g install bower
npm -g install gulp
npm -g install karma

# Also to be able to run tests from CLI
# without browser window popping consider
# to install PhantomJS:

# Get Ruby dependencies required to compile styles from Sass:
bundle install

To make development faster and more automated there are several Gulp tasks available:

• gulp

  Builds project into build directory. Under the hood compiles and compresses Sass/CSS, compiles scripts with (RequireJs) and uglifies it.

• gulp bump-version

  Works with gitglow releases. E.g. when you’re on release/0.4.4 branch it will update cache beaters to follow version.

• gulp karma

  Starts Karma server watching scripts updates.

• gulp karma-ci

  Runs tests against the build (which should be run first) and quits, is good to use in CI scenarios.

• gulp protractor

  Runs E2E tests against source files.

• gulp protractor-ci

  Runs E2E tests against the build.

• gulp sass

  Compiles Sass project, feeds output to Autoprefixer and minifies it via CSSO.

• gulp watch

  Listens to changes to stylesheets and scripts and reloads browser page during development.

• bower install

  To update all the dependencies to the latest compatible versions.

Tests use Jasmin for assertions.

You can write tests in both Coffee and JS (see /source/js/modules/home/home-ctrl.spec.js and /source/js/modules/home/home-ctrl.spec.coffee).

Protractor is used to provide way to do E2E tests. To install go to client directory and run:

npm install -g protractor

// This installs Selenium standalone
// server and Chrome driver:
webdriver-manager update

// Start the server with:
gulp webdriver

// To test source:
gulp protractor

Check p.conf and p-compiled.conf for Protractor settings.

Checkout Protractor docs for more information.
