Testing jQuery UI Accordion Component Behavior in Brackets

This test helper module provides utility functions for testing jQuery UI accordion components, focusing on height validation, animation control, and state verification.

The suite enables consistent testing of accordion behavior and visual states.

Test Coverage Overview

The test coverage encompasses core accordion functionality validation including height consistency, animation states, and display conditions.

Height equality verification across accordion panels
Animation setup and teardown management
Visual state validation for accordion sections
Integration with jQuery UI core functionality

Implementation Analysis

The implementation uses a modular helper approach with dedicated functions for specific test scenarios.

Key patterns include:

jQuery selector-based DOM traversal
QUnit assertion integration
State management through prototype manipulation
Dynamic height comparison logic

Technical Details

QUnit testing framework integration
jQuery UI accordion plugin dependencies
CSS display state validation
DOM element height calculations
Animation flag configuration management

Best Practices Demonstrated

The test helpers demonstrate strong testing practices through isolation of test utilities and clear separation of concerns.

Reusable helper functions
Consistent state management
Explicit setup and teardown procedures
Clear assertion patterns
