 You can, however, call Karma programmatically from your node module. Here is the public API.
 
 
-## karma.server
+## karma.Server(options, [callback=process.exit])
 
-### **server.start(options, [callback=process.exit])**
+### Constructor
+
+```javascript
+var Server = require('karma').Server
+var server = new Server({port: 9876}, function(exitCode) {
+  console.log('Karma has exited with ' + exitCode)
+  process.exit(exitCode)
+})
+```
+
+### **server.start()**
 
 Equivalent of `karma start`.
 
 ```javascript
-var server = require('karma').server;
-server.start({port: 9876}, function(exitCode) {
-  console.log('Karma has exited with ' + exitCode);
-  process.exit(exitCode);
-});
+server.start()
+```
+
+### Events
+
+The `server` object is an [`EventEmitter`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/events.html#events_class_events_eventemitter). You can simply listen to events like this:
+
+```javascript
+server.on('browser_register', function (browser) {
+  console.log('A new browser was registered')

+
+### `browsers_change`

+
+The list of browers has changed.
+
+#### `browsers_ready`

+
+* `browsers`: A collection of browser instances on which tests are excuted
+
+A test run starts.

-  process.exit(exitCode);
-});
+  console.log('Karma has exited with ' + exitCode)
