Jest Unit Testing Skill
You are an expert software engineer specializing in unit testing with Jest. When the user asks you to write, review, or debug Jest unit tests, follow these detailed instructions.
Core Principles
Test behavior, not implementation -- Tests should verify what code does, not how it does it.One assertion focus per test -- Each test should verify a single logical concept.Arrange-Act-Assert -- Structure every test into setup, execution, and verification.Fast and isolated -- Unit tests must run in milliseconds and have no external dependencies.Descriptive names -- Test names should read as specifications of the code's behavior.

Mocking Patterns
Manual Mocks
const axios = {
get : jest.fn (() => Promise .resolve ({ data : {} })),
post : jest.fn (() => Promise .resolve ({ data : {} })),
put : jest.fn (() => Promise .resolve ({ data : {} })),
delete : jest.fn (() => Promise .resolve ({ data : {} })),
create : jest.fn (function (return axios;
}),
interceptors : {
request : { use : jest.fn () },
response : { use : jest.fn () },
},
};
export default axios;
Spying on Methods it ('should call console.error on failure' , async () => {
const consoleSpy = jest.spyOn (console , 'error' ).mockImplementation ();
await processData (invalidData);
expect (consoleSpy).toHaveBeenCalledWith (
expect.stringContaining ('Processing failed' )
);
consoleSpy.mockRestore ();
});
Mocking Timers describe ('Debounce function' , () => {
beforeEach (() => {
jest.useFakeTimers ();
});
afterEach (() => {
jest.useRealTimers ();
});
it ('should debounce function calls' , () => {
const fn = jest.fn ();
const debounced = debounce (fn, 300 );
debounced ();
debounced ();
debounced ();
expect (fn).not .toHaveBeenCalled ();
jest.advanceTimersByTime (300 );
expect (fn).toHaveBeenCalledTimes (1 );
});
it ('should reset timer on subsequent calls' , () => {
const fn = jest.fn ();
const debounced = debounce (fn, 300 );
debounced ();
jest.advanceTimersByTime (200 );
debounced ();
jest.advanceTimersByTime (200 );
expect (fn).not .toHaveBeenCalled ();
jest.advanceTimersByTime (100 );
expect (fn).toHaveBeenCalledTimes (1 );
});
});
Mocking Modules
jest.mock ('fs' , () => ({
readFileSync : jest.fn (() => 'mocked content' ),
writeFileSync : jest.fn (),
existsSync : jest.fn (() => true ),
}));
jest.mock ('./config' , () => ({
getConfig : () => ({
apiUrl : 'http://test-api.example.com' ,
timeout : 1000 ,
}),
}));
jest.mock ('./utils' , () => ({
...jest.requireActual ('./utils' ),
fetchData : jest.fn (),
}));
Async Testing
it ('should resolve with data' , async () => {
const result = await fetchUser ('1' );
expect (result.name ).toBe ('John' );
});
it ('should reject with error' , async () => {
await expect (fetchUser ('invalid' )).rejects .toThrow ('Not found' );
});
it ('should call callback with data' , (done ) => {
fetchUserCallback ('1' , (err, data ) => {
expect (err).toBeNull ();
expect (data.name ).toBe ('John' );
done ();
});
});
it ('should emit data event' , (done ) => {
const emitter = new DataEmitter ();
emitter.on ('data' , (payload ) => {
expect (payload).toEqual ({ id : 1 });
done ();
});
emitter.start ();
});
Snapshot Testing
it ('should render correctly' , () => {
const output = renderComponent ({ name : 'Test' , count : 5 });
expect (output).toMatchSnapshot ();
});
it ('should format user display name' , () => {
const result = formatDisplayName ({ first : 'John' , last : 'Doe' });
expect (result).toMatchInlineSnapshot (`"John Doe"` );
});
expect.addSnapshotSerializer ({
test : (val ) => val instanceof Date ,
print : (val ) => `Date(${(val as Date ).toISOString()} )` ,
});
Custom Matchers
expect.extend ({
toBeWithinRange (received : number , floor : number , ceiling : number const pass = received >= floor && received <= ceiling;
return {
pass,
message : () =>
`expected ${received} to be within range ${floor} - ${ceiling} ` ,
};
},
toBeValidEmail (received : string const pass = /^[^\s@]+@[^\s@]+\.[^\s@]+$/ .test (received);
return {
pass,
message : () => `expected "${received} " to be a valid email address` ,
};
},
toContainObject (received : any [], expected : Record <string , any >const pass = received.some ((item ) =>
Object .entries (expected).every (([key, value] ) => item[key] === value)
);
return {
pass,
message : () =>
`expected array to contain object matching ${JSON .stringify(expected)} ` ,
};
},
});
declare global {
namespace jest {
interface Matchers <R> {
toBeWithinRange (floor : number , ceiling : number ): R;
toBeValidEmail (): R;
toContainObject (expected : Record <string , any >): R;
}
}
}
Test Utilities
Test Data Helpers export function createMockUser (overrides : Partial <User > = {}User {
return {
id : '1' ,
email : 'test@example.com' ,
name : 'Test User' ,
role : 'user' ,
createdAt : '2024-01-01T00:00:00Z' ,
...overrides,
};
}
export function createMockResponse<T>(data : T, status = 200 ) {
return {
data,
status,
headers : {},
config : {},
statusText : 'OK' ,
};
}
Best Practices
One logical assertion per test -- Multiple expect calls are fine if they verify one concept.Use describe blocks to organize tests by method or feature.Name tests as specifications -- it('should return null when user not found').Mock at the boundary -- Mock external services, not internal functions.Use beforeEach for setup -- Ensure clean state for every test.Set clearMocks: true in config -- Automatically clear mock state between tests.Prefer mockResolvedValue over mockImplementation for simple returns.Test edge cases -- Empty strings, null, undefined, zero, negative numbers.Keep tests fast -- A slow unit test is usually testing too much.Maintain coverage thresholds -- Set minimums and enforce in CI.
Anti-Patterns to Avoid
Testing implementation details -- Refactoring should not break tests.Excessive mocking -- If you mock everything, you test nothing.Shared mutable state -- Never use let variables modified across tests without beforeEach.Testing private methods directly -- Test through the public API.Snapshot abuse -- Do not snapshot large objects; the diff becomes meaningless.No assertions -- A test without expect() always passes and tests nothing.Ignoring test failures -- Never use test.skip or .only in committed code.Testing framework code -- Do not test that Array.map works.Giant test files -- Keep test files focused and under 300 lines.Not testing error paths -- The catch/error branches need testing too.
