Question

I am using Jasmine gem in my Rails project for testing JavaScript. My tests add some HTML to document.body. I want it to be clean before each test. Is there a way to clean it globally for all tests in all test files? I do not want to put the cleaning in beforeEach in each suite.

Answer 1

Yes you can here are two ways;)

1. Put the beforeEach on your runner. Here’s the docs with concrete example.
2. You can use jasmine-jquery‘s fixtures or see how it’s done there if you don’t need jQuery. With it, whenever you create a fixture it’s automatically cleaned up after the test.
