Venus.js in an open source software testing tool developed by LinkedIn that allows you to organize and run your entire JS testing system with a single tool using Node.js. Venus eliminates repetitive tasks and friction points and lets you focus on writing tests instead of running them.

If you already have JavaScript testing in place, Venus is designed to orchestrate and automate existing tools like Mocha, Jasmine and QUnit. This video begins with a brief overview of different ways to test code written for the web, including black-box vs. white-box testing techniques.

Then it focuses on white-box unit testing and how to write unit tests for JavaScript code using Venus.js. You will understand why unit testing is important, the challenges involved in unit testing JavaScript code, and the tools and techniques which are available to overcome these challenges.
