I have this function in my source file:

function gimmeANumber(){
    var x = 4;
    return x;
}

And a spec borrowed from this tutorial

describe('Hello world', function() {

    beforeEach(function() {
        this.addMatchers({
            toBeDivisibleByTwo: function() {
                return (this.actual % 2) === 0;
            }
        });
    });

    it('is divisible by 2', function() {
        expect(gimmeANumber()).toBeDivisibleByTwo();
    });

});

This is the error:

TypeError: undefined is not a function at Object. (file:///home/n/foo/jasmine/jasmine-2.0.0/dist/spec/HelloWorldSpec.js...) Thank you.

The API for adding custom matchers has changed since 1.3. You can see the changes here.

Here is how it works now:

function gimmeANumber() {
    var x = 4;
    return x;
}

describe('Hello world', function () {

    beforeEach(function () {
        jasmine.addMatchers({
            toBeDivisibleByTwo: function () {
                return {
                    compare: function (actual, expected) {
                        return {
                            pass: (actual % 2) === 0
                        };
                    }
                };
            }
        });
    });

    it('is divisible by 2', function () {
        expect(gimmeANumber()).toBeDivisibleByTwo();
        expect(5).not.toBeDivisibleByTwo();
    });

});

  • Add a 'message' property to the return obj to customize message. Ex. return { pass: typeof actual === 'number', message: actual +' should be a number' }; – olefrank Jun 28 '16 at 12:44
