Virtuous' Unit Test Suite

This configuration uses Jest for running the tests. It is only an extension of the default Jest configuration.

Installation

NPM

npm install --save-dev @virtuous/unit-tests

Yarn

yarn add --dev @virtuous/unit-tests

Usage

All test files should follow the naming convention of *(spec|test).js. But that is not mandatory. You can also put your test files into one or multiple __tests__ folder(s).

NOTE: It is considered a best practice to create __tests__ folder(s) AND have the file endings like *.spec.js or *.test.js!

Test Setup

You have two options of how to create a configuration for Jest:

• You can create your own configuration following the Jest Documentation
• You can use Virtuous' pre-defined configuration and extend it as you wish.

NOTE: Using and extending the Virtuous configuration is the preferred way!

1. Using Virtuous' configuration

Create a file called jest.config.js in the root of your project. Add the following line to it:

module.exports = require('@virtuous/unit-tests/jest.config');

2. Extending Virtuous' configuration

Create a file called jest.config.js in the root of your project. Add the following line in the beginning of the file:

const defaultConfig = require('@virtuous/unit-tests/jest.config');

This will load the default configuration. Now you can extend it by spreading the defaultConfig into a newly created configuration object:

module.exports = Object.assign({}, defaultConfig, {}
  [Your config goes here],
});

Example Configuration

Here is an example showing how to extend the default configuration:

const defaultConfig = require('@virtuous/unit-tests/jest.config');

module.exports = Object.assign({}, defaultConfig, {
  moduleNameMapper: {
    '^Components(.*)$': '<rootDir>/components',
    '^Styles(.*)$': '<rootDir>/styles',
  },
});
