  Regarding structure, check out node best practices, where structuring by component (aka structuring by feature or module) is recommended, so in node.js it's already known that structuring by type not scales well, disregarding of the project size.

  Project mention: Configure aliases once and for all with Yarn's link protocol | dev.to | 2021-10-24

  Then I added Jest to the project. And... guess what? It also needs this alias in its configuration to resolve it correctly and find my modules. And where Vite and Webpack used a fairly similar syntax, Jest uses a different.

  Has anyone here used Playwright? Just wondering if it's comparable to Cypress or has any fundamental missing features?

• Enzyme

  12 19,742 7.1 JavaScript

  JavaScript Testing utilities for React

  

  Project mention: React component testing with Jest and React Testing Library | dev.to | 2021-09-07

  Another popular tool is Enzyme, but many believe that it can lead to bad testing practices. The main concern is that Enzyme offers extra utilities that allow you to test the internal workings of a component (e.g. read and set state of the component). The team at React tests React; therefore, there is no need for you to test React’s functionality such as state, componentDidMount, etc. The same goes for other libraries you may use.

• ava

  9 19,349 8.4 JavaScript

  Node.js test runner that lets you develop with confidence 🚀

  

  Project mention: Some Use-Cases for JS Generator Functions | reddit.com/r/javascript | 2021-09-02

  But this commit broken the unit tests. I use Ava (the only test runner that allows for async tests, so I can write unit tests in my own language) and snapshots for testing the list structure in few unit tests, and somehow the snapshots differ before and after adding iterator to Lists. I still need to investigate why and try to create simple reproduction for this issue on GitHub avajs/ava#2811.

• PHPUnit

  13 17,934 9.9 PHP

  The PHP Unit Testing framework.

  Project mention: PHP global functions: how they affect code extensibility, testability and modularity | dev.to | 2021-09-29

  Solution with dependency injection described above gives us opportunity to choose custom logger object. With the help of testing framework such as PHPUnit we can create stub object instead of regular logger object, which allows us to freely redefine or suppress object functionality for purposes of the test and also watch which methods on the logger object has been called from inside of tested module (mocking). Neither of these features can be achieved when implementing logging with a global function.

• react-testing-library

  7 15,363 7.2 JavaScript

  🐐 Simple and complete React DOM testing utilities that encourage good testing practices.

  

  Project mention: Getting Started with React Cosmos | dev.to | 2021-08-23

  There are many ways to test component UIs and some testing frameworks help us achieve that, to mention but a few react-testing-library, where we write tests to check what a component has, for example, if we are testing a form component, we will write tests to check it a button is rendered, if there are input and/or select tags, etc and we usually see the results in our terminals but with React cosmos, we have a visual way to test our components (Visual TDD) which makes testing easier.

• jasmine

  12 15,238 8.4 JavaScript

  Simple JavaScript testing framework for browsers and node.js

  

  Project mention: Testing the testers (Jasmine contribution) | dev.to | 2021-10-15

  This week for my open source contribution I decided to tackle a bigger project and a slightly more complex issue. Last week, I removed commented code, this week I added some code. For my repository, I chose to fork Jasmine, and the issue involved adding some extra descriptions to an error message regarding "expectations" and asynchronous tasks in the Jasmine framework.

  Project mention: Unit testing and mocking for c++ | reddit.com/r/cpp | 2021-10-19

  I'm answering a question asked not from me. I've used both Google.Test and Catch2 and latter one feels much nicer. Sections from Catch2 just do not exist in other frameworks however they are super powerful. It has drawbacks like not having out of the box macros for setting up stuff once for all the runs of a test before a test is run with various parameters. See https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2/issues/1602 Integrating gmock should be easy as I've seen but not flawless. As I remember some extra work needs to be done so expectations are verified at end of sections? See https://github.com/matepek/catch2-with-gmock Google.Test doesn't support (or at least didn't when I last looked) some combination of type and value generators. Other than that, the slightly uglier syntax and lack of sections (which is pretty big) it's all good. Especially with gmock all integrated and delivered to you in one package.
