Mocha can be used to "spec" an app including specs for acceptance testing. See the Tower test suite for how to use Mocha to test a Tower app.
The "BDD" interface provides: describe(), it(), before(), after(), beforeEach(), and afterEach(). The "TDD" interface provides: suite(), test(), setup(), and teardown().
To setup Mocha for browser use all you have to do is include the script, stylesheet, tell Mocha which interface you wish to use, and then run the tests. A typical setup might look something like the following, where we call mocha.setup('bdd') to use the BDD interface before loading the test scripts, running them onload with mocha.run().

Design.IO can be used to run watch tasks when a file changes, and inject the result into the browser.
