Write Tests

Write Tests for stream-chain

Write or update tests using the tape-six testing library.

Steps

1. Read node_modules/tape-six/TESTING.md for the full tape-six API reference (assertions, hooks, patterns, configuration).
2. Identify the module or feature to test. Read its source code to understand the public API.
3. Check existing tests in tests/ for stream-chain conventions and patterns.
4. Create or update the test file in tests/:
   • For runtime tests use .mjs, for typing tests use .mts, for CommonJS tests use .cjs.
   • Import the module under test with relative paths: import chain from '../src/index.js';
   • For stream tests, collect output with pipeline.on('data', ...) and verify in pipeline.on('end', ...).
   • Use tests/helpers.mjs utilities: streamToArray(), readString(), writeToArray(), delay().
5. Run the new test file directly to verify: node tests/test-<name>.mjs
6. Run the full test suite to check for regressions: npm test
   • If debugging, use npm run test:seq (runs sequentially, easier to trace issues).
7. Report results and any failures.

stream-chain conventions

• Test file naming: test-*.*js and test-*.*ts in tests/.
• Runtime tests (.mjs): ESM imports, import test from 'tape-six'.
• TypeScript typing tests (.mts): verify type declarations and type-safe API usage. See tests/test-typings-*.mts.
• CommonJS tests (.cjs): const {test} = require('tape-six');. See tests/test-cjs.cjs.
• Existing tests use test.asPromise('name', (t, resolve) => { ... }) for stream-based tests. New tests may also use async t => { ... } when appropriate.
• Tests run on Node, Bun, and Deno.
