Mocha is a JavaScript test framework for Node.js programs, featuring browser support, asynchronous testing, test coverage reports, and use of any assertion library. [ 1 ] Assertion libraries
Asynchronous module definition (AMD) is a specification for the programming language JavaScript. It defines an application programming interface (API) that defines code modules and their dependencies, and loads them asynchronously if desired. Implementations of AMD provide the following benefits: Website performance improvements.
Jasmine is an open-source testing framework for JavaScript. [4] It aims to run on any JavaScript-enabled platform, to not intrude on the application nor the IDE , and to have easy-to-read syntax. It is heavily influenced by other unit testing frameworks, such as ScrewUnit, JSSpec, JSpec, and RSpec .
Asynchrony, in computer programming, refers to the occurrence of events independent of the main program flow and ways to deal with such events. These may be "outside" events such as the arrival of signals, or actions instigated by a program that take place concurrently with program execution, without the program hanging to wait for results. [1]
Lazy loading (also known as asynchronous loading) is a technique used in computer programming, especially web design and web development, to defer initialization of an object until it is needed. It can contribute to efficiency in the program's operation if properly and appropriately used.
The asynchronous workflows are implemented as CE (computation expressions). They can be defined without specifying any special context (like async in C#). F# asynchronous workflows append a bang (!) to keywords to start asynchronous tasks. The following async function downloads data from an URL using an asynchronous workflow:
Ajax (also AJAX / ˈ eɪ dʒ æ k s /; short for "asynchronous JavaScript and XML" [1] [2]) is a set of web development techniques that uses various web technologies on the client-side to create asynchronous web applications.
Earlier versions of Dojo had a reputation for being bulky and slow to load. [13] It also required extra work to load Dojo across domains, e.g., from a CDN.Addressing these problems was the major goal of Dojo 1.7, which introduced asynchronous module definition (AMD) and a "nano" loader.
