Jag,

Depending on what you want to test in your Javascript, you can always 
approach it just as text and look for occurences of strings or regexen 
(with the 'text_require', 'regex_require' etc. tests).

The same is true for a pure javascript file - even, for that matter, I 
test on the string 'GIF98a' in a single pixel GIF image to be sure that 
the image is returned, not some server error:

    text_require = "GIF89a"
    text_forbid = "<html>"

HTH!

Cheers, Joe.
