Beefy is broken?

[dcosson]

I get the following error when running beefy in the simplest possible form, I'm on OSX El Capitan and Node 4.2.1.

beefy (v2.1.5) is listening on http://127.0.0.1:9966
200    7ms       530B  / (generated)

npm ERR! Test failed.  See above for more details.

The command I'm running is

beefy app/entry.js 

Then when I request http://localhost:9966/bundle.js beefy crashes with the buf error above.

It's certainly possible I'm hitting some weird edge case, but it really seems like beefy is just broken on the most common development environments for versions of node released in the past ~3 months. Seems like a pretty big issue...

Also getting this on 5.2.0

Which browserify transforms are you using?

I got this when I set up my babelify config wrong, works fine when I fixed my cruddy config. OSX with node 5.2.0.

Although live reload is behind but thats a separate issue.

After updating from 0.10 to 5.3.0 also started having this issue. It crashes when I have some rough syntax mistake in a file, like window.;

I go this same error, and changing my dependencies from browserify 13 to 12 fixed it.
