tape-rollup

4.6.4 verified Mon Apr 27 auth: no javascript maintenance

A standalone version of the Tape test runner bundled specifically for use with Rollup. Version 4.6.4 is the current stable release. The package is a thin wrapper that re-exports Tape's core functionality (test, skip, only, etc.) in a way that is compatible with Rollup's ES module resolution. Key differentiator: eliminates the need for Node.js built-in module polyfills when using Tape with Rollup. Release cadence is sporadic, with the last update in 2018. Only suitable for projects using Rollup as their build system.

Common errors

error Error: Cannot find module 'tape-rollup' ↓

cause Package not installed or incorrect import path.

fix

Run 'npm install tape-rollup' and ensure the import matches the package name.

error SyntaxError: The requested module 'tape-rollup' does not provide an export named 'test' ↓

cause Using named import { test } instead of default import.

fix

Change to 'import test from "tape-rollup"' (default import).

error TypeError: test is not a function ↓

cause Using require('tape-rollup') which returns an object with a default property.

fix

Use ES module import syntax: 'import test from "tape-rollup"'

Warnings

breaking The package is ESM-only; does not export a CommonJS module. Using require() will fail. ↓

fix Use 'import test from "tape-rollup"' with an ESM-compatible environment or bundler.

deprecated The library has not been updated since 2018. It may not work with newer versions of Rollup (>=2.0) or Tape (>5). ↓

fix Consider using the 'tape' package directly with proper Rollup configuration for Node built-in modules.

gotcha Do not import named exports like 'skip' or 'only' with a default import pattern. ↓

fix Use named import syntax: import { skip } from 'tape-rollup'

Install

npm install tape-rollup

yarn add tape-rollup

pnpm add tape-rollup

Quickstart

Basic usage: import default function 'test' and write a simple test assertion.

test('addition', (t) => {
  t.plan(1);
  t.equal(1 + 1, 2);
});
