Testing with Jest and Mock XP
Contents
This tutorial introduces you to the Jest testing framework, and how to integrate it in an Enonic application.
Introduction
Jest is a highly adopted testing framework that supports TypeScript, mocking, and a lot, lot more.
A special feature of this setup is that tests can be executed standalone, independently of Enonic XP. Thus, the tests will finish faster and be more flexible to execute.
| For more details, visit the Jest documentation. |
This guide will show you how to:
-
Create a Project with Jest environment already set up.
-
Write a simple test without any mocks
-
Write a test for server-side code manually mocking Java libraries
-
Write a test for server-side code using Mock XP
-
Write a test for client-side code
