Suggest a BDD testing framework for Node JS on Windows

My team is working on web application with rich HTML5 client and RESTfull server. Although our server-side code is a typical Java stack we use Node JS in our build process. Notably for CoffeeScript compilation, jsHint, and script minification.

I'd like to introduce automated testing for the client-side code and i need to pick a BDD framework. One note is that our application is deployed on Windows and we use it for development as well. So I'm worried whether a particular BDD framework would play along nicely with Windows version of Node JS.

Yadda is also worth checking out. It lets you write true BDD tests as follows

Scenario: A bottle falls from the wall

Given 100 green bottles are standing on the wall
when 1 green bottle accidentally falls
then there are 99 green bottles standing on the wall

It plugs into other frameworks like Mocha, CasperJS and Zombie.

If you are interested in testing client side code, as it is in the browser, take a look at ZombieJS. Also Mocha is a good testing framework, so you may want to mix the two of them together.

Can't say something about its window compatibility, but there are two BDD frameworks that you can use with automatic testing in jenkins: Jasmine trough the Jasmine maven plugin and BusterJs
