Intern is a complete JavaScript testing stack supporting unit and functional testing in Node.js and browsers, with built-in code coverage, WebDriver-based cross-browser testing, and TypeScript support. It integrates with CI services like Jenkins and Travis CI and cloud testing platforms like Sauce Labs and BrowserStack.

Use cases

  • run unit tests for a JavaScript library in Node and browsers
  • run functional browser tests with Selenium WebDriver
  • get code coverage reports for a TypeScript project
  • run tests in parallel across many browsers and platforms
  • integrate JavaScript tests into Jenkins or Travis CI
  • test native or hybrid mobile apps via WebDriver

When to choose

  • you need one tool for unit, functional, and cross-browser WebDriver testing
  • you want built-in code coverage and TypeScript support without extra config
  • you need cloud browser testing via Sauce Labs, BrowserStack, or TestingBot
  • your project uses AMD modules or legacy module formats

When to avoid

  • you are starting a new project and prefer an actively developed ecosystem like Jest, Vitest, or Playwright
  • you only need simple unit tests with a large community and plugin ecosystem
  • you need fast-moving modern ESM-first tooling
