Testing your React App with Jest

The following scenarios will be covered:

Basic

  1. Test an interaction with a DOM element that updates state. [Counter]
  2. Test a component wrapped in a HOC (e.g. Redux' mapState). [ScreenWidth, PageURL]
  3. Create snapshots for the above. [All component tests]

Advanced

  1. Test a component that is wrapped in the React context. [PageURL]
  2. Test a React ref attached to a DOM node. [Reminder]
  3. Test code that uses browser global variables. [ScreenWidth]

Project structure

The components and tests are in ./src/components. The tests for Component.jsx are in Component.test.jsx.

In the project directory, you can run:

npm start

Runs the app in the development mode. Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.

The page will reload if you make edits. You will also see any lint errors in the console.

npm run test:watch
