```sh
$ git clone https://github.com/nightwatchjs/nightwatch.git
$ cd nightwatch

```

### Run tests
The tests for Nightwatch are written using [Mocha](http://mochajs.org/) exports interface so they can also be run with Nightwatch itself.

To run the unit tests using mocha, do:

```sh

```sh
$ npm run unit-tests
```

To check test coverage, run the command:

```sh

```
and then open the generate file _coverage.html_ in your browser.
