Validating PDF.js Core API Implementation in mozilla/pdf.js

This test suite validates the core API functionality and exports of the PDF.js library, ensuring consistency between the official API and web viewer implementations. The tests verify proper exposure of essential PDF handling components and utilities.

Test Coverage Overview

The test suite provides comprehensive coverage of PDF.js API functionality, focusing on verifying exported components and utilities. Key areas tested include:

  • PDF document handling and manipulation features
  • Annotation and editor layer implementations
  • Display utilities and rendering components
  • Worker options and data transport mechanisms
  • Error handling and exception types

Implementation Analysis

The testing approach employs modular unit tests to validate API consistency and functionality. Tests utilize dynamic imports and object comparison to verify the exposed API surface matches expected definitions. The implementation leverages Jasmine’s describe/it pattern for structured test organization.

Technical Details

Testing Tools & Configuration:
  • Jasmine test framework for unit testing
  • ES6 module imports for component loading
  • Object.freeze() for immutable API definitions
  • Environment-specific conditional testing (Node.js vs browser)
  • Build-specific path resolution for different contexts

Best Practices Demonstrated

The test suite exemplifies several testing best practices:

  • Comprehensive API surface validation
  • Environment-aware test conditions
  • Explicit expected vs actual comparisons
  • Modular test organization
  • Clear test descriptions and documentation
