# BDD for your JavaScript
Jasmine is a behavior-driven development framework for testing your JavaScript code. It does not depend on any other
JavaScript frameworks. It does not require a DOM. And it has a clean, obvious syntax so that you can easily write tests.
{% highlight javascript %}
describe("Jasmine", function() {
it("makes testing JavaScript awesome!", function() {
expect(yourCode).toBeLotsBetter();
});
});
{% endhighlight %}
## Adding Jasmine to your Rails project
{% highlight sh %}
$ gem install jasmine
$ script/generate jasmine
$ rake spec
{% endhighlight %}
Jasmine can be run on a static web page, in your continuous integration environment, or with [node.js](http://nodejs.org).
See more in the documentation.
