Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Improves prop-types support in Jest by failing tests on prop-type errors instead of ignoring them

prop-types is a library from Facebook that makes it easy to verify that the props passed to a React component is of the correct type. However, it only allows us runtime type checking, which means some failures can slip by into production.

This is possible to solve with Jest by making prop-type errors throw instead of only logging a warning. In this case your tests would run and whenever a wrong prop is passed to a component, the prop-type validation would pick this up and fail the test. Then we would be able to verify that the props that are passed to our components are good compile-time, provided the tests run when we build our production bundle.

That is what this library does!

Read this blog for a more in-depth explanation.

Install

yarn add -D jest-prop-type-error

Usage

In order to enable us to detect prop-type errors and fail the test, you need to add the following to your package.json's jest section.

  "setupFiles": [
    "jest-prop-type-error"
  ]

If there is no jest section in your package.json, add one and use that.

Now simply run your tests like usual, and prop-type errors will throw instead of logging a warning!
