I have installed jasmine-node using npm. My project's directory structure are following:

|-lib\
   |-taxCalc.js
|-spec\
   |-taxCalc.spec.coffee
   |-taxCalc.spec.js
|-src\
   |-taxCalc.coffee

When I run jasmine-node from root folder with following mand (for CoffeeScript):

jasmine-node --coffee --verbose spec

Finished in 0.015 seconds
0 tests, 0 assertions, 0 failures

Same if I run JavaScript version.

If I explicitly point to spec file tests run fine:

jasmine-node --coffee --verbose spec/taxCalc.spec.coffee

Tax calculation
  calculates tax

Finished in 0.009 seconds
1 test, 1 assertion, 0 failures

Documentation says that file names should end with 'spec.js' or 'spec.coffee', so everything seems ok.

P.S. I am running on Windows 7.

• the only thing I know is that windows needs paths in node.js to be handled differently. Exmpl; "C:/bla" would need to be "C:\/bla". could be that the dev of jasmine isnt testing on windows.. – japrescott Commented Jan 30, 2012 at 12:21
• Thanks for idea - I'll try to test RegEx used in jasmine-node if it finds windows specific paths. – marisks Commented Jan 30, 2012 at 12:44
• I've got a project in Windows with a structure similar to yours but I'm not running into your issue. Does it make a difference if you're more explicit that spec is a directory: jasmine-node --coffee --verbose .\spec\? – Eric Bock Commented Jan 30, 2012 at 19:10
• No, even more explicit version didn't help. I tested RegEx used in jasmine-node and it is fine. – marisks Commented Jan 31, 2012 at 5:09
• 2 Dude, ditch Jasmine. I use to use Jasmine, that is until Mocha came along. – JP Richardson Commented Feb 1, 2012 at 20:32

Jasmine-node has been updated in the last week to use walkdir instead of findit which now makes it function in windows. Re-run npm install jasmine-node for the update.

Stumbled upon the same problem and have read MarisKs link too late :/ - but came to the same conclusion as described in the issue: At least on Windows 7, file.stat.ino returns always 0, so the function createInodeChecker() in findit/index.js returns always true and the file will be skipped.

Easiest on-the-fly-fix: edit createInodeChecker to

function createInodeChecker() {
    var inodes = {};
    return function inodeSeen(inode) {
        if (inode == 0) {
            return false;
        }

        if (inodes[inode]) {
            return true;
        } else {
            inodes[inode] = true;
            return false;
        }
    }
}

Not nice, but you can work with it.
