• node-http-quark-put, adds a PUT route to your quarkhttp app

• node-http-quark-middleware, adds a middleware to your quarkhttp app

• node-jest-suite, adds a test suite

• node-jest-test, adds a test

• node-jest-test-expect, adds a test with an expect

• node-jest-test-afterAll, adds a afterAll(), this method runs after all tests

• node-supertest-init, adds the initial imports for supertest and the app you are about to test. I assume the app you are about to test looks something like this:

  //  app.js
  const express = require('express')
  const app = express();
  // your route definitions
  module.exports = app;

  and that your file structure looks like this:

  -| app.js    // this is where the web app goes
  -| __tests__/
  ---| app.js  // this where the tests goes

• node-supertest-beforeall, configures supertest to use the app instance, this is a needed step to initialize supertest

• node-supertest-aftereall, ensures the web app closes down after the test run, this is a needed step.

• node-supertest-testget, an example of supertest testing a GET route

• node-supertest-testgetwithparam, an example of supertest testing a GET route with a route parameter

• node-supertest-testpost, an example of supertest testing a POST route with a payload
