## Test structure

```js
describe('makePoniesPink', () => {
  beforeAll(() => {
    /* Runs before all tests */
  })
  afterAll(() => {
    /* Runs after all tests */
  })
  beforeEach(() => {
    /* Runs before each test */
  })
  afterEach(() => {
    /* Runs after each test */
  })

  test('make each pony pink', () => {
    const actual = fn(['Alice', 'Bob', 'Eve'])
    expect(actual).toEqual(['Pink Alice', 'Pink Bob', 'Pink Eve'])
  })
})
```

## Matchers

[Using matchers](http://jestjs.io/docs/en/using-matchers), [matchers docs](https://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/expect.html)

### Basic matchers

```js
expect(42).toBe(42) // Strict equality (===)
expect(42).not.toBe(3) // Strict equality (!==)
expect([1, 2]).toEqual([1, 2]) // Deep equality
expect({ a: undefined, b: 2 }).toEqual({ b: 2 }) // Deep equality
expect({ a: undefined, b: 2 }).not.toStrictEqual({ b: 2 }) // Strict equality (Jest 23+)
```

### Truthiness

```js
// Matches anything that an if statement treats as true (not false, 0, '', null, undefined, NaN)
expect('foo').toBeTruthy()
// Matches anything that an if statement treats as false (false, 0, '', null, undefined, NaN)
expect('').toBeFalsy()
// Matches only null
expect(null).toBeNull()
// Matches only undefined
expect(undefined).toBeUndefined()
// The opposite of toBeUndefined
expect(7).toBeDefined()
```

### Numbers

```js
expect(2).toBeGreaterThan(1)
expect(1).toBeGreaterThanOrEqual(1)
expect(1).toBeLessThan(2)
expect(1).toBeLessThanOrEqual(1)
expect(0.2 + 0.1).toBeCloseTo(0.3, 5)
```

### Strings

```js
expect('long string').toMatch('str')
expect('coffee').toMatch(/ff/)
expect('pizza').not.toMatch('coffee')
expect(['pizza', 'coffee']).toEqual([expect.stringContaining('zz'), expect.stringMatching(/ff/)])
```

### Arrays

```js
expect(['Alice', 'Bob', 'Eve']).toHaveLength(3)
expect(['Alice', 'Bob', 'Eve']).toContain('Alice')
expect([{ a: 1 }, { a: 2 }]).toContainEqual({ a: 1 })
expect(['Alice', 'Bob', 'Eve']).toEqual(expect.arrayContaining(['Alice', 'Bob']))
```

### Objects

```js
expect({ a: 1 }).toHaveProperty('a')
expect({ a: 1 }).toHaveProperty('a', 1)
expect({ a: { b: 1 } }).toHaveProperty('a.b')
expect({ a: 1, b: 2 }).toMatchObject({ a: 1 })
expect({ a: 1, b: 2 }).toMatchObject({
  a: expect.any(Number),
  b: expect.any(Number)
})
expect([{ a: 1 }, { b: 2 }]).toEqual([
  expect.objectContaining({ a: expect.any(Number) }),
  expect.anything()
])
```

### Exceptions

```js
// const fn = () => { throw new Error('Out of cheese!') }
expect(fn).toThrow()
expect(fn).toThrow('Out of cheese')
expect(fn).toThrowErrorMatchingSnapshot()
```

<details>
  <summary>Aliases</summary>

- `toThrowError` → `toThrow`
  </details>

### Snapshots

```js
expect(node).toMatchSnapshot()
// Jest 23+
expect(user).toMatchSnapshot({
  date: expect.any(Date)
})
expect(user).toMatchInlineSnapshot()
```

### Mock functions

```js
// const fn = jest.fn()
// const fn = jest.fn().mockName('Unicorn') -- named mock, Jest 22+
expect(fn).toBeCalled() // Function was called
expect(fn).not.toBeCalled() // Function was *not* called
expect(fn).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1) // Function was called only once
expect(fn).toBeCalledWith(arg1, arg2) // Any of calls was with these arguments
expect(fn).toHaveBeenLastCalledWith(arg1, arg2) // Last call was with these arguments
expect(fn).toHaveBeenNthCalledWith(args) // Nth call was with these arguments (Jest 23+)
expect(fn).toHaveReturnedTimes(2) // Function was returned without throwing an error (Jest 23+)
expect(fn).toHaveReturnedWith(value) // Function returned a value (Jest 23+)
expect(fn).toHaveLastReturnedWith(value) // Last function call returned a value (Jest 23+)
expect(fn).toHaveNthReturnedWith(value) // Nth function call returned a value (Jest 23+)
expect(fn.mock.calls).toEqual([['first', 'call', 'args'], ['second', 'call', 'args']]) // Multiple calls
expect(fn.mock.calls[0][0]).toBe(2) // fn.mock.calls[0][0] — the first argument of the first call
```

<details>
  <summary>Aliases</summary>

- `toBeCalled` → `toHaveBeenCalled`
- `toBeCalledWith` → `toHaveBeenCalledWith`
- `lastCalledWith` → `toHaveBeenLastCalledWith`
- `nthCalledWith` → `toHaveBeenNthCalledWith`
- `toReturnTimes` → `toHaveReturnedTimes`
- `toReturnWith` → `toHaveReturnedWith`
- `lastReturnedWith`→ `toHaveLastReturnedWith`
- `nthReturnedWith` →`toHaveNthReturnedWith`
  </details>

### Misc

```js
expect(new A()).toBeInstanceOf(A)
expect(() => {}).toEqual(expect.any(Function))
expect('pizza').toEqual(expect.anything())
```

### Promise matchers (Jest 20+)

```js
test('resolve to lemon', () => {
  expect.assertions(1)
  // Make sure to add a return statement
  return expect(Promise.resolve('lemon')).resolves.toBe('lemon')
  // return expect(Promise.reject('octopus')).rejects.toBeDefined();
})
```

Or with async/await:

```js
test('resolve to lemon', async () => {
  expect.assertions(2)
  await expect(Promise.resolve('lemon')).resolves.toBe('lemon')
  await expect(Promise.resolve('lemon')).resolves.not.toBe('octopus')
})
```

[resolves docs](https://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/en/expect.html#resolves)

## Async tests

See [more examples](https://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/en/tutorial-async.html) in Jest docs.

It’s a good practice to specify a number of expected assertions in async tests, so the test will fail if your assertions
weren’t called at all.

```js
test('async test', () => {
  expect.assertions(3) // Exactly three assertions are called during a test
  // OR
  expect.hasAssertions() // At least one assertion is called during a test

  // Your async tests
})
```

### async/await

```js
test('async test', async () => {
  expect.assertions(1)
  const result = await runAsyncOperation()
  expect(result).toBe(true)
})
```

### Promises

_Return_ a Promise from your test:

```js
test('async test', () => {
  expect.assertions(1)
  return runAsyncOperation().then(result => {
    expect(result).toBe(true)
  })
})
```

### done() callback

Wrap your assertions in try/catch block, otherwise Jest will ignore failures:

```js
test('async test', done => {
  expect.assertions(1)
  runAsyncOperation()
  setTimeout(() => {
    try {
      const result = getAsyncOperationResult()
      expect(result).toBe(true)
      done()
    } catch (err) {
      done.fail(err)
    }
  })
})
```

## Mocks

### Mock functions

```js
test('call the callback', () => {
  const callback = jest.fn()
  fn(callback)
  expect(callback).toBeCalled()
  expect(callback.mock.calls[0][1].baz).toBe('pizza') // Second argument of the first call
})
```

You can also use snapshots:

```js
test('call the callback', () => {
  const callback = jest.fn().mockName('Unicorn') // mockName is available in Jest 22+
  fn(callback)
  expect(callback).toMatchSnapshot()
  // ->
  // [MockFunction Unicorn] {
  //   "calls": Array [
  // ...
})
```

And pass an implementation to `jest.fn` function:

```js
const callback = jest.fn(() => true)
```

[Mock functions docs](https://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/mock-function-api.html)

### Mock modules using `jest.mock` method

```js
jest.mock('lodash/memoize', () => a => a) // The original lodash/memoize should exist
jest.mock('lodash/memoize', () => a => a, { virtual: true }) // The original lodash/memoize isn’t required
```

[jest.mock docs](https://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/jest-object.html#jestmockmodulename-factory-options)

> Note: When using `babel-jest`, calls to `jest.mock` will automatically be hoisted to the top of the code block.
> Use `jest.doMock` if you want to explicitly avoid this behavior.

### Mock modules using a mock file

1. Create a file like `__mocks__/lodash/memoize.js`:

   ```js
   module.exports = a => a
   ```

2. Add to your test:

   ```js
   jest.mock('lodash/memoize')
   ```

> Note: When using `babel-jest`, calls to `jest.mock` will automatically be hoisted to the top of the code block.
> Use `jest.doMock` if you want to explicitly avoid this behavior.

[Manual mocks docs](https://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/manual-mocks.html)

### Mock object methods

```js
const spy = jest.spyOn(console, 'log').mockImplementation(() => {})
expect(console.log.mock.calls).toEqual([['dope'], ['nope']])
spy.mockRestore()
```

```js
const spy = jest.spyOn(ajax, 'request').mockImplementation(() => Promise.resolve({ success: true }))
expect(spy).toHaveBeenCalled()
spy.mockRestore()
```

### Mock getters and setters (Jest 22.1.0+)

```js
const location = {}
const getTitle = jest.spyOn(location, 'title', 'get').mockImplementation(() => 'pizza')
const setTitle = jest.spyOn(location, 'title', 'set').mockImplementation(() => {})
```

### Mock getters and setters

```js
const getTitle = jest.fn(() => 'pizza')
const setTitle = jest.fn()
const location = {}
Object.defineProperty(location, 'title', {
  get: getTitle,
  set: setTitle
})
```

### Clearing and restoring mocks

For one mock:

```js
fn.mockClear() // Clears mock usage date (fn.mock.calls, fn.mock.instances)
fn.mockReset() // Clears and removes any mocked return values or implementations
fn.mockRestore() // Resets and restores the initial implementation
```

> Note: `mockRestore`works only with mocks created by `jest.spyOn`.

For all mocks:

```js
jest.clearAllMocks()
jest.resetAllMocks()
jest.restoreAllMocks()
```

### Accessing the original module when using mocks

```js
jest.mock('fs')
const fs = require('fs') // Mocked module
const fs = require.requireActual('fs') // Original module
```

### Timer mocks

Write synchronous test for code that uses native timer
functions (`setTimeout`, `setInterval`, `clearTimeout`, `clearInterval`).

```js
// Enable fake timers
jest.useFakeTimers()

test('kill the time', () => {
  const callback = jest.fn()
  // Run some code that uses setTimeout or setInterval
  const actual = someFunctionThatUseTimers(callback)
  // Fast-forward until all timers have been executed
  jest.runAllTimers()
  // Check the results synchronously
  expect(callback).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1)
})
```

Use [jest.runOnlyPendingTimers()](https://jestjs.io/docs/en/timer-mocks#run-pending-timers) for special cases.

Or adjust timers by time with [advanceTimersByTime()](https://jestjs.io/docs/en/timer-mocks#advance-timers-by-time).

## Data-driven tests (Jest 23+)

Run the same test with different data:

```js
test.each([[1, 1, 2], [1, 2, 3], [2, 1, 3]])('.add(%s, %s)', (a, b, expected) => {
  expect(a + b).toBe(expected)
})
```

Or the same using template literals:

```js
test.each`
  a    | b    | expected
  ${1} | ${1} | ${2}
  ${1} | ${2} | ${3}
  ${2} | ${1} | ${3}
`('returns $expected when $a is added $b', ({ a, b, expected }) => {
  expect(a + b).toBe(expected)
})
```

Or on `describe` level:

```js
describe.each([['mobile'], ['tablet'], ['desktop']])('checkout flow on %s', (viewport) => {
  test('displays success page', () => {
    // 
  })
})
```

[describe.each() docs](https://jestjs.io/docs/en/api.html#describeeachtablename-fn-timeout), [test.each() docs](https://jestjs.io/docs/en/api.html#testeachtablename-fn-timeout),

## Skipping tests

Don’t run these tests:

```js
describe.skip('makePoniesPink'...
tests.skip('make each pony pink'...
```

Run only these tests:

```js
describe.only('makePoniesPink'...
tests.only('make each pony pink'...
```

## Testing modules with side effects

Node.js and Jest will cache modules you `require`. To test modules with side effects you’ll need to reset the module
registry between tests:

```js
const modulePath = '../module-to-test'

afterEach(() => {
  jest.resetModules()
})

test('first test', () => {
  // Prepare conditions for the first test
  const result = require(modulePath)
  expect(result).toMatchSnapshot()
})

test('second text', () => {
  // Prepare conditions for the second test
  const fn = () => require(modulePath)
  expect(fn).toThrow()
})
```

## Usage with Babel and TypeScript

Add [babel-jest](https://github.com/facebook/jest/tree/master/packages/babel-jest)
or [ts-jest](https://github.com/kulshekhar/ts-jest). Check their docs for installation instructions.
