Painless CLI integration testing
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!

Speeding up the JavaScript ecosystem – The barrel file debacle
> In the popular jest test runner, each test file is executed in its own child process.
Is that confirmed?
I've been following this issue:
https://github.com/jestjs/jest/issues/6957
And what Jest actually does is still kind of muddy.
In contrast to that, other test runners like AVA have a clear description what happens when:

[2023-07-14] Razuberi Development Update
Continued work on the test suite. Implementing AVA, with snapshotting. Making a lot of effort to have the snapshot directory structure match the test262 test directory structure by generating AVA test files.

Ask HN: What's your favorite software testing framework and why?
You might want to give ava a spin:
It has a TAP reporter, but more importantly, as opposed to the more popular solutions, like Jest, the way it achieves parallelism is explained in the docs and won't change anytime soon, thus preventing wonky, hard to debug errors which occur when this part is abstracted away.

The new React's documentation
I switched to ava for that reason and have been very happy with it. But vitest looks nice, too. Thanks for the pointer.

Unit testing: What to use, and how?
I've had some good experiences with Ava + Sinon. I've personally disliked Jest because it seemed to do some weird trickery in the background that prevented me from using ES modules.

Tech stack discussion
Ava for a simpler environment than Jest, which I usually use. I need to check how to mock ESM with it, though.

Unit Testing in Node.js and TypeScript: A Comprehensive Guide with Jest Integration
If you are using a mocking library, such as sinon, jest-mock, or ts-mockito, make sure that it is compatible with Jest. You may need to install additional packages or configure them in your configuration file. For example, to use sinon with Jest, you can install the sinon-jest package and add the following to your configuration file:
-
Express API Testing
Mocha is a test runner, Chai is an assertion library, Sinon is a mocking library, this normally the combination you would need to use if you choose mocha, but there are others.
-
Alternative to AWS Mock
Instead, use pure functions + dependency inject your stubs (e.g. parameter to function). Also note, no need for Sinon or some other test double library. JavaScript is so good nowadays to easily make objects/classes/functions or any combination thereof on the fly that are terse.

Can AI help me write tests on legacy code?
🤖 You can use the Mocha testing framework with the Chai assertion library to write tests for your Express controller. You can also use the Sinon library to mock the database calls. This will allow you to test the controller without actually making a call to the database. You can also use the SuperTest library to make HTTP requests to the controller and test the response.

Need help writing a jest test that mocks an API call which will update state
You can use sinon js to create a mock version of your http library (axios) that responds with the data you’re expecting.

Unit testing with React and Cypress
Assertions are the checkpoints of our test block that confirm if an automated test has passed or failed. Cypress bundles the Chai, jQuery, and Sinon.JS libraries for assertions. They check the desired, expected application in which the test is running. A complete listing of assertions can be found in the documentation here.

When to use DI?
ES module is basically a "class" that you inject dependencies into through imports. And for tests you just use something like sinon to swap module dependencies for mocks.

How to test a function that uses moment to format a date ? usimg karma
You can use a tool like sinon to pass in your own function instead of the real moment library. From there you can write tests that ensure moment was invoked appropriately.
