Mastering Grunt (Video 11)

This video tutorial demonstrates how to enhance development productivity using Grunt by running tests and watch tasks in parallel. It covers configuring QUnit tests, handling task execution, and using the Grunt-Concurrent plugin for running multiple tasks simultaneously. The tutorial concludes with a summary of the setup and a preview of future workflow optimizations.

What is the primary goal of using Grunt in the development process as mentioned in the video?

• To reduce the size of the application

• To enhance the graphical user interface

• To increase the number of developers working on the project

• To improve development productivity by running tests in parallel

Which framework is used for writing client-side tests in the video?

• Mocha

• Jasmine

• QUnit

• Karma

What is a limitation when using URLs for running tests with Grunt?

• URLs cannot be accessed from a local server

• URLs do not support globbing patterns

• URLs require a specific browser to run

• URLs are not compatible with Node.js

What is the main challenge when running multiple watch tasks in Grunt?

• Tasks cannot be automated

• Tasks are executed in a random order

• Tasks require a lot of memory

• Task execution is linear and synchronous

Which plugin is introduced to run multiple tasks in parallel?

• grunt-parallel

• grunt-multi

• grunt-concurrent

• grunt-async

What option must be set to true to see the output of concurrent tasks?

• log concurrent output

• task output

• debug mode

• verbose output

What benefit does running tests in real-time provide during development?

• It reduces the code size

• It ensures tests are always up-to-date with code changes

• It increases the number of tests

• It improves the graphical interface
