Recently I’ve been playing around with NPM. I switched my unit tests from QUnit to Mocha. This was not as straight forward as one would hope. In this blog I’ll show some example code. At the end I’ll link to a side by side comparison of the entire test project. Hopefully it helps you to convert your code. I’ll be using the Chai BDD assertion engine.

Turns out that I needed an even smaller type of event: the signal. It is an event that has no data; it just fires. The Strongly Typed Events project started with the IEvent
A while ago I started a GitHub project for Strongly Typed Events in TypeScript. I’ve uploaded the second version (0.2) with support for ISimpleEvent
Need to add named event support to your class? Implement the IEventHandling interface or extend from the abstract EventHandlingBase class. In this tutorial I explore how you can give your class named events.

In a previous tutorial I explained how events can be implemented as properties on a class using Strongly Typed Events for TypeScript. Let’s explore how these work on interfaces. Interfaces work a little different, because they don’t have getters and setters on them (at least nog in TypeScript 1.8). Let’s explore how these work on interfaces.

As a C# programming I have a lot of interest in the TypeScript project. Lately I’ve been playing around with it to look what it can do. I found myself in need of some event handling, so I decided to build something that looks like the event handling .Net gives you.
