  • The Ultimate Guide to TypeScript Monorepos

    Thankfully using TypeScript and TypeScript project references makes the intricate problem of using Jest easier since we can make use of the excellent ts-jest Jest transformer. All we need to do it point ts-jest to the respective tsconfig.json file for each package (see example jest.config.js). Since we have configured TypeScript to be composite and incremental, we do not need to recompile TypeScript for dependencies of a package we want to test, which significantly reduces the runtime for unit tests. ts-jest will also ensure that any error message will reference the line numbers in the source TypeScript files.
  • Testing Svelte components with Jest and Vite
    8 projects | dev.to | 18 Nov 2021
    We need to configure Jest to transform our files. We must explicitly set our test environment to jsdom, which we are using through Jest. Since v27 Jest's default test environment is node. I will put the configuration in a specific Jest configuration file called jest.config.json in the project root folder. If you create a configuration file called jest.config.js, Vite will complain as it expects only ESM JavaScript by default. Vite will recommend that you rename it to a ".cjs" file if you want to do it that way. You can look at the different ways to configure Jest if you are unsure about the file conventions. If you're using TypeScript, you need to configure svelte-preprocess and ts-jest also, see the svelte-jester docs for how to do that.

  • How does the Svelte compiler works with the Typescript compiler?

    svelte-preprocess is responsible for processing things like TypeScript and SCSS. The svelte compiler itself is only responsible for turning the svelte file into JavaScript.
