Travis ci fails with mocha + jumpsuits

Question

travis ci fails because the original reporter is an empty line.

NODE_ENV=test YOURPACKAGE_COVERAGE=1 mocha --compilers coffee:coffee-script/register --require blanket --reporter mocha-lcov-reporter | ./node_modules/coveralls/bin/coveralls.js

It works fine on my local network.

Answer 1

This is because some tools only work with the latest version of node. I had a problem with the sample until I changed the version of node in mine .travis.yaml:

node_js:
- "6"

Answer 2

You must tell Travis CI to install the last node before executing:

language: node_js
node_js:
  - "node"
