@jest/types
Advanced tools
The @jest/types package provides TypeScript definitions and utility types for Jest, a popular JavaScript testing framework. It includes types for Jest configuration, global variables, and other utilities that help in creating type-safe test environments and extending Jest functionalities.
Config
Defines types for Jest configuration options. This allows for type-safe Jest configuration files, ensuring that any configuration options passed to Jest are valid.
{"globals": {"myGlobal": "value"}, "testMatch": ["**/__tests__/**/*.js?(x)", "**/?(*.)+(spec|test).js?(x)"]}Global
Provides types for Jest's global variables and functions, such as 'describe', 'it', and 'expect'. This is useful for creating custom global setups or mocks in a type-safe manner.
"declare var jest: jest.Jest"Mock
Includes types for Jest's mocking utilities, enabling developers to create and manipulate mocks with full TypeScript support.
"const mockedFunction: jest.Mock = jest.fn()"Before Jest provided its own TypeScript definitions, @types/jest was the go-to package for Jest types. It serves a similar purpose by providing type definitions for Jest, but @jest/types is more up-to-date and maintained by the Jest team.
While ts-jest is primarily a TypeScript preprocessor for Jest, allowing Jest to understand TypeScript files, it also includes some utility types for configuration. However, @jest/types focuses solely on providing comprehensive type definitions for Jest's API.
jest-mock-extended provides extended types and utilities for mocking in Jest, particularly with TypeScript. It complements @jest/types by offering more detailed mock creation and manipulation capabilities, though @jest/types provides the foundational type definitions.
