Commands

Options

• --watch - If set, when you save changes to the project, changes are automatically synchronized to the connected device and tests are re-ran.
• --device - Specifies the serial number or the index of the connected device on which you want to run tests. To list all connected devices, grouped by platform, run $ tns device. You cannot set --device and --emulator simultaneously. <Device ID> is the device index or identifier as listed by the $ tns device command.
• --emulator - Runs tests on the iOS Simulator. You cannot set --device and --emulator simultaneously.
• --debug-brk - Runs the tests under the debugger. The debugger will break just before your tests are executed, so you have a chance to place breakpoints.
• --force - If set, skips the application compatibility checks and forces npm i to ensure all dependencies are installed. Otherwise, the command will check the application compatibility with the current CLI version and could fail requiring tns migrate.

Prerequisites

• Verify that you have configured your project for unit testing.
• Verify that you have stored your unit tests in app → tests.
• Verify that you have configured your system and devices properly.
