passing blocks around in javascript without lengthy function syntax

In my testing code, I'm getting a lot of things that look like this:

test.truth(function(){return myTest.isDef('')});

Where a majority of t开发者_Python百科he line there is just the function boilerplate. Is there a way to reduce that, so that I can have a syntax more like:

test.truth { myTest.isDef('') }

as one would do in Scala?

Of course, ideally this is highly browser compatible.

If you're looking for concise syntax, you may want to give CoffeeScript a look.

No, sorry. Javascript has array literals - [] and object literals - {}, but function literals are only possible using function() { } syntax

You could use eval

function testtrutheval(someobject, evaltext)
{
   test.truth(function {  eval("someobject." + evaltext);});
}

And then write

Testtrutheval(mytest,"isdef('')");

I hope i got the syntax right, its been 8 years sinc i did javascript.
