Testing React Components
Last Updated: June 18, 2024
Some aspects to focus on when testing React components include:
- Rendering: Verify that the component renders correctly under different conditions.
- Props: Test how the component behaves when you pass different props.
- User Interaction: Simulate user interactions and verify that the component behaves correctly.
- State: If the component has internal state, test how the component behaves when the state changes.
- Hooks: If the component has hooks, like
useEffect
, test that they are called when expected and that they have the correct side effects. - Context: If the component uses React context, test how the component behaves with different context values.
- State Management Libraries If the component is connected to a state management library store, test how the component behaves when the store's state changes.
