ag-ssg VS jest

ag-ssg

One very important part of software development is test automation since it creates an automatic process for one or multiple types of tests to run without the need for manual intervention. Testing helps a large community of developers (or even a single developer) keep a piece of software evolving in the right direction. Without tests, it's easy to break existing code, introduce unexpected bugs, or ignore important edge cases. On my application ag-ssg I have used tools for automating my tests when working on a JavaScript/TypeScript codebase is JEST.

Refactoring of my ssg.

Hi, this week I was working on the agg-SSG (https://github.com/anshul137/ag-ssg). It is written with the javascript and was pretty easy to install and use, since it has pretty good documentation.

minor errors in README.md file - There were some minor spelling, formatting and information errors in the README.md file.

Hey everyone, thanks for reading my Blog post in our first Assignment Release 0.1, we were asked to make the Static Site Generator. I have named it (ag-ssg) you can look at it here, this is my Github repo. In this project we were supposed to create the tool which can convert the .txt file type to .html file type. In this version of our project, User can use the command line tool to specify the particular text file or particular folder which contains multiple text files to convert all of them to .html files. For lab 1 we need to find the partner from our class and collaborate with them using the different platform so that we can review their code and let them review our work as well. The main purpose of this lab is so that we collaborate with our partner and find the problem in our code since all the software will always have problems or bugs. Moreover, with the help of this lab, I was able to grow my network, and it showed me how we actually work in the open-source environment, like by sharing our code, let them help us and increase our debugging problems.

There are several testing approaches you can take to ascertain the functionality of the auth API. One way would be to automate the testing using unit tests with tools like Jest and Supertest. Alternatively, you can make use of API clients like Postman or the Thunder Client VS Code extension to test the API.

Jest

you have selected a testing framework. In my case, it's Jest with Supertest

Jest, created and maintained by Facebook, is a JavaScript testing framework with a focus on simplicity. It is often recognized for its zero-configuration setup and seamless integration, especially with React applications, making it a favored choice for developers in both small-scale projects and large enterprise applications.

Jest (https://jestjs.io/)

console.error Jest encountered an unexpected token Jest failed to parse a file. This happens e.g. when your code or its dependencies use non-standard JavaScript syntax, or when Jest is not configured to support such syntax. Out of the box Jest supports Babel, which will be used to transform your files into valid JS based on your Babel configuration. By default "node\_modules" folder is ignored by transformers. Here's what you can do: • If you are trying to use ECMAScript Modules, see https://jestjs.io/docs/ecmascript-modules for how to enable it. • If you are trying to use TypeScript, see https://jestjs.io/docs/getting-started#using-typescript • To have some of your "node\_modules" files transformed, you can specify a custom "transformIgnorePatterns" in your config. • If you need a custom transformation specify a "transform" option in your config. • If you simply want to mock your non-JS modules (e.g. binary assets) you can stub them out with the "moduleNameMapper" config option. You'll find more details and examples of these config options in the docs: https://jestjs.io/docs/configuration For information about custom transformations, see: https://jestjs.io/docs/code-transformation

Note: I will be using Jest as testing framework throughout the examples.

We use Jest Framework for testing. Jest is not a dogma, and, of course, in its place can be any other test runner, such as Mocha or Ava. Let's focus on tests. I'll provide a short example because I don’t want to waste your time. You can find the full version here. It's crucial to read the comments in the code below. Let's go!

Jest has long been my favorite got to test runner when it comes to UI unit and integration testing. With tools like React Testing Library (Testing Library framework for React) you get the benefit of very easy to write and maintain tests, as well as a quick and efficient way to run our tests.
