FAILURES: Undone tests (or their setups/teardowns):

• testSlimerCreatePage

To fix this, make sure all tests call test.done()

Added this:

exports.testSlimerCreatePage = function (test) {
  slimer.create(function (error, sl) {
    console.log(error);

Got this:

testcreatepage
Slimer immediately exited with: 1

NOTE: The test fails on the bundled slimerjs, but succeeds if I pass options to the create function to use my locally installed 0.9.5 slimerjs installation.

var slimer = require('../node-slimerjs');

exports.testSlimerCreatePage = function (test) {
  slimer.create(function (err, sl) {
    console.log(err);
    test.ifError(err);
    sl.createPage(function (err, page) {
      test.ifError(err);
      sl.exit();
      test.done();
    });
  }, {
    slimerPath: '/usr/local/bin/slimerjs'
  });
};

Changed default in node-slimerjs.js to be my installed slimerjs and got much further.

Slimer leaves windows open which must be closed for the test to finish. Since this is my first experience with this 'not really headless' approach, I'm not sure whether that's normal...

Is there a good reason to include a copy of SlimerJS in "node-slimerjs" package? I could not get the copy distributed with this package to run on Windows without an error, but if I used the copy provided by the "slimerjs" package then node-slimerjs works for me. Should node-slimerjs package just use the slimerjs package?

See original https://github.com/baudehlo/node-phantom-simple, it now 2.0.0 and includes SlimerJS support with lot of bugfixes.
