The @file{test/} directory contains all the unit tests for the project. ease.js

follows a test-driven development model; every single aspect of the framework is
tested to ensure that features work as intended both server-side and across all
supported web browsers. The tests also ensure that bugs are not introduced for
anything that has been covered. This should also give outside developers
confidence. If a developer makes a modification to ease.js and does not cause
any failing tests, it's likely that their change didn't have negative
consequences on the integrity of the framework.
supported web browsers. The tests also serve as regression tests, ensuring that
bugs are not introduced for anything that has been covered. These tests should
also give outside developers confidence; if a developer makes a modification to
ease.js and does not cause any failing tests, it's likely that their change

All tests are prefixed with @samp{test-}, followed by the name of the module,
followed optionally by the specific part of the module that is being tested. The
tests are written in JavaScript and use Node.js's @file{assert} module. They may
be run individually or at once during the build process.
ease.js is currently in a transition period in regards to the style of the test
cases. Tests written in the original format are prefixed with @samp{test-},
followed by the name of the module, followed optionally by the specific part of
the module that is being tested. Newer test cases are prefixed with the
prototype name of the unit being tested, followed by @samp{Test.js}. If there
are a number of test cases for a given prototype, any number of tests will be
included (with the same suffix) in a directory with the same name as the
prototype. The tests are written in JavaScript and use Node.js's @file{assert}
module. Newer tests use a test case system that was developed to suit the needs
of the project (still using the @file{assert} module). They may be run
individually or all at once during the build process.
Developers interested in contributing to ease.js can aid in this transition
process by helping to move all @file{test-*} tests over to the new test case
format.
In addition, there exists a @file{test/perf/} directory that contains
performance tests used for benchmarking.
