Node.JS testing DOM with Mocha?

I'm trying to do some simple view testing in my Node.JS app using the Mocha testing framework...

For example, I want to test that the <ol> on the page has n <li> children, given the number of records I setup in my test.

I tried using Apricot to do this, and while I got it to work, when it fails the error messages are fantastically unhelpful... also, it doesn't always work.

What I'd love is a simple way to test the response body for HTML elements, so I can determine if they match the data they should be displaying.

Here's my test in it's current state: https://gist.github.com/2330685

Anyone know how I can do this?

node.js
mocha

Posting the comment as answer as well.

For DOM manipulation or element finding, I am suggesting great library cheerio https://github.com/MatthewMueller/cheerio. Which can load the html as string and then use the JQuery like selectors. Also it seems to be really lightweight. I replaced the JSDOM with request + cheerio combination.
