The jest-matcher-utils package provides utility functions for creating custom Jest matchers. It is designed to help developers write their own matchers that integrate seamlessly with Jest's built-in expectation system, offering a way to extend Jest's assertion capabilities with custom logic. The utilities provided by this package include formatting values for error messages, comparing values, and generating matcher error messages.

What are jest-matcher-utils's main functionalities?

pretty-format

Formats any JavaScript value for pretty printing, which is useful for generating readable error messages in custom matchers.

const { prettyFormat } = require('jest-matcher-utils');
console.log(prettyFormat({ foo: 'bar' }));

matcherHint

Generates a hint string for a matcher, which can be used at the beginning of error messages to indicate which matcher failed.

const { matcherHint } = require('jest-matcher-utils');
console.log(matcherHint('.toBe'));

printExpected and printReceived

These functions format the expected and received values to be included in error messages, applying color highlighting to improve readability.
