TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method 'listen'

[codesplicer]

Keep getting this error when running the following code against my expressjs app:

var app     = require('../app'),
    assert  = require('assert'),
    tobi    = require('tobi'),
    vows    = require('vows'),
    browser = tobi.createBrowser(app);

browser.get('/login', function(res, $){
});

Not sure what's causing this behavior.

did you solve your problem?

i get the same message using tobi (same code as above). weird thing i also get this using zombiejs or mocha testing tools.

i'm using node 0.6.2 on ubuntu 10.04 and got the modules via npm install

probably you do not export your app from your server

app     = require('../app'),

you should check what app is, my guess is that it's {}

what can you do? simply write in your ../app the following:

var app = module.exports = express.createServer();

to get your app exported
