jest-serializer-html-string 
A slightly better Jest snapshot serializer for working with strings containing rendered html.
Example
Given:
function renderElem(props) {
return `<body>
<div class="home active">
<h1><img src="${ props.img }" alt="Foo"/></h1><div>Hello</div>
<p><span class="something">Hey</span>
<img src="${ props.img }" /></p>
</div>
</body>
`;

<span class="something">Hey</span>
<img src="/foo.png" />
