NodeJs require('./file.js') issues

Viewed 87533

I am having issues including files to execute in my NodeJs project.

I have two files in the same directory:

a.js

var test = "Hello World";

and

b.js

require('./a.js');
console.log(test);

I execute b.js with node b.js and get the error ReferenceError: test is not defined.

I have looked through the docs http://nodejs.org/api/modules.html#modules_file_modules

What am I missing? Thanks in advance.
