loop through it() in jasmine describe output spec not found

I learned that this way is the best way to loop through the it() in a describe(), but it failed on me with "spec not found", and seems stop right before the for loop function, I wonder where did I do wrong?

Thanks!

describe('this is my looping test!', function() {
  var input = [1,2,3];
  var output = [10, 20, 30];

  function test_my_times_ten(input, output) {
    it('should multiply ' + input + ' by 10 to give ' + output, function() {
      expect(input * 10).toEqual(output)
    });
  }

  for(var x = 0; x < input.size; x++) {
    test_my_times_ten(input[x], output[x]);
  }
});

i think the real problem is "input.size" at line "for(var x = 0; x < input.size; x++) {" . there is no such thing called "input.size". try input.length and your test will run as expected

Actually someone did really smart thing like this, and it seems does the work!

Looping on a protractor test with parameters

var testParams = testConfig.testArray;

for (var i = 0; i < testParams.length; i++) {

  (function (testSpec) {
    it('write your test here', function () {
      //test code here
    });
  })(testParams[i]);

};
