jest-each

Jest Parameterised Testing

version downloads MIT License

A parameterised testing library for Jest inspired by mocha-each.

jest-each allows you to provide multiple arguments to your test/describe which results in the test/suite being run once per row of parameters.

Features

  • .test to runs multiple tests with parameterised data
    • Also under the alias: .it
  • .test.only to only run the parameterised tests
    • Also under the aliases: .it.only or .fit
  • .test.skip to skip the parameterised tests
    • Also under the aliases: .it.skip or .xit or .xtest
  • .describe to runs test suites with parameterised data
  • .describe.only to only run the parameterised suite of tests
    • Also under the aliases: .fdescribe
  • .describe.skip to skip the parameterised suite of tests
    • Also under the aliases: .xdescribe
  • Asynchronous tests with done
  • Unique test titles with printf formatting:
    • %p - pretty-format.
    • %s- String.
    • %d- Number.
    • %i - Integer.
    • %f - Floating point value.
    • %j - JSON.
    • %o - Object.
    • %# - Index of the test case.
    • %% - single percent sign ('%'). This does not consume an argument.
  • 🖖 Spock like data tables with Tagged Template Literals

Demo

Tests without jest-each

Current jest tests

Tests can be re-written with jest-each to:

.test

.test with Tagged Template Literals

Current jest tests

.describe

Installation

npm i --save-dev jest-each

yarn add -D jest-each

Importing

jest-each is a default export so it can be imported with whatever name you like.

// es6
import each from 'jest-each';
// es5
const each = require('jest-each');

Array of rows

API

each([parameters]).test(name, testFn)

each:
  • parameters: Array of Arrays with the arguments that are passed into the testFn for each row
    • Note If you pass in a 1D array of primitives, internally it will be mapped to a table i.e. [1, 2, 3] -> [[1], [2], [3]]
.test:
  • name: String the title of the test.
    • Generate unique test titles by positionally injecting parameters with printf formatting:
      • %p - pretty-format.
      • %s- String.
      • %d- Number.
      • %i - Integer.
      • %f - Floating point value.
      • %j - JSON.
      • %o - Object.
      • %# - Index of the test case.
      • %% - single percent sign ('%'). This does not consume an argument.
  • testFn: Function the test logic, this is the function that will receive the parameters of each row as function arguments

each([parameters]).describe(name, suiteFn)

each:
  • parameters: Array of Arrays with the arguments that are passed into the suiteFn for each row
    • Note If you pass in a 1D array of primitives, internally it will be mapped to a table i.e. [1, 2, 3] -> [[1], [2], [3]]
.describe:
  • name: String the title of the describe
    • Generate unique test titles by positionally injecting parameters with printf formatting:
      • %p - pretty-format.
      • %s- String.
      • %d- Number.
      • %i - Integer.
      • %f - Floating point value.
      • %j - JSON.
      • %o - Object.
      • %# - Index of the test case.
      • %% - single percent sign ('%'). This does not consume an argument.
  • suiteFn: Function the suite of test/its to be ran, this is the function that will receive the parameters in each row as function arguments

Usage

.test(name, fn)

Alias: .it(name, fn)

each([[1, 1, 2], [1, 2, 3], [2, 1, 3]]).test(
  'returns the result of adding %d to %d',

    expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
  },
);

.test.only(name, fn)

Aliases: .it.only(name, fn) or .fit(name, fn)

each([[1, 1, 2], [1, 2, 3], [2, 1, 3]]).test.only(
  'returns the result of adding %d to %d',
  (a, b, expected) => {
    expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
  },
);

.test.skip(name, fn)

Aliases: .it.skip(name, fn) or .xit(name, fn) or .xtest(name, fn)

each([[1, 1, 2], [1, 2, 3], [2, 1, 3]]).test.skip(
  'returns the result of adding %d to %d',
  (a, b, expected) => {

  },
);

Asynchronous .test(name, fn(done))

Alias: .it(name, fn(done))

each([['hello'], ['mr'], ['spy']]).test(
  'gives 007 secret message: %s',
  (str, done) => {
    const asynchronousSpy = message => {
      expect(message).toBe(str);
      done();
    };
    callSomeAsynchronousFunction(asynchronousSpy)(str);
  },
);

.describe(name, fn)

each([[1, 1, 2], [1, 2, 3], [2, 1, 3]]).describe(
  '.add(%d, %d)',
  (a, b, expected) => {
    test(`returns ${expected}`, () => {
      expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
    });

    test('does not mutate first arg', () => {
      a + b;

Tagged Template Literal of rows

API

each[tagged template].test(name, suiteFn)

each`
  a    | b    | expected
  ${1} | ${1} | ${2}

  ${2} | ${1} | ${3}
`.test('returns $expected when adding $a to $b', ({a, b, expected}) => {
  expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
});
each takes a tagged template string with:
  • First row of variable name column headings seperated with |
  • One or more subsequent rows of data supplied as template literal expressions using ${value} syntax.
.test:
  • name: String the title of the test, use $variable in the name string to inject test values into the test title from the tagged template expressions
    • To inject nested object values use you can supply a keyPath i.e. $variable.path.to.value
  • testFn: Function the test logic, this is the function that will receive the parameters of each row as function arguments
