  Description     : tap-producing test harness for node and browsers

 You can run the tests by usual node means (require('test-file.js') or node
test-file.js). You can also run tests using the tape binary to utilize
globbing.
 .
 Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine.

Node-tape is needed to run the upstream tests for the node-typedarray package
(and probably many other packages).

Several other node modules will need to be packaged first though:

Node-tape will be maintained within the Debian Javascript Team.
