How does blanket.js modify JavaScript files?

Question

The homepage for blanket.js says I only need to data a data-cover attribute to my script tags.

But how is blanket.js supposed to modify the files before they are run?

The documentation on Github says its first step is

Loading your source files using a modified RequireJS/Require script.

Do I have to use RequireJS to get blanket.js to work?

(I cannot find anywhere where this is documented.)

Currently, I do not use requireJS, and currently, blanket.js is not working. Could this be the cause of the problem?

A while ago, Blanket used Require.js internally - I don't know if this is still true. Though, require.js was bundled with the blanket.js file. So no, you don't need to include require.js.

What you may need to include is an adapter for your Unit test Framework. https://github.com/alex-seville/blanket/tree/master/src/adapters
