About The Project

This is a solution to React frontend testing. This package provides a class, ComponentTestHelper, to be used in Jest React frontend testing use cases. This class allows the developer to abstract a lot of the tedious, duplicated, testing that often occurs when attempting to test the frontend, into reusable functions contained within the bounds of a given components "test helper".

Built With

• TypeScript
• Testing Libary

import ComponentTestHelper into test file

import ComponentTestHelper from 'component-test-helper'

define instance for the component to test in the test file

// with a builder
const inputField = new ComponentTestHelper(builder =>
  builder.byTestId('inputFieldContainer')
)

// with a custom ComponentTestHelper - builder only necessary if a custructor wasn't supplied
const inputField = new InputFieldTestHelper(builder =>
  builder.byTestId('inputFieldContainer')
)

// custom with supplied constructor
const inputField = new InputFieldTestHelper()

define custom ComponentTestHelper in another file

export class InputFieldTestHelper extends ComponentTestHelper {
  // define child components to test
  readonly input = new ComponentTestHelper(builder =>
    builder.byTestId('inputField')
  )

  // create constructor if you want to hard code the selector for the builder
  constructor() {
    super(builder => builder.byTestId('inputFieldContainer'))
  }

  // define methods for acting and expecting on components
  async expectToHaveValue(value: string | number | null): Promise<void> {
    expect(await this.input.get()).toHaveValue(value)
  }
}
