Installation

Setup

Jest uses JSDOM as test environment by default. In order to tell Jest to use a different environment we will either have to set a CLI attribute, define it in "package.json" or add a property to your Jest config file.

CLI

1. Edit your "package.json" file.

2. Add "--env=@happy-dom/jest-environment" as an attribute to your Jest command.

   {
       "scripts": {
           "test": "jest --env=@happy-dom/jest-environment"
       }
   }
   

3. Save the file.

In "package.json"

1. Edit your "package.json" file.

2. Add the following to it:

   {
       "jest": {
           "testEnvironment": "@happy-dom/jest-environment"
       }
   }
   

3. Save the file.

Configuration File

1. Edit your Jest config file (usually jest.config.js)

2. Add the following to it:

   {
     "testEnvironment": "@happy-dom/jest-environment"
   }
   

3. Save the file.
