What is jest-styled-components?
jest-styled-components is a Jest utility for testing styled-components. It provides custom matchers to test the styles applied to your components, making it easier to ensure that your styled-components are rendered correctly.
What are jest-styled-components's main functionalities?
toHaveStyleRule
The `toHaveStyleRule` matcher allows you to check if a specific style rule is applied to a component. In this example, it verifies that the `Button` component has a `color` style rule set to `red`.
const styled = require('styled-components').default;
const { toHaveStyleRule } = require('jest-styled-components');
expect.extend({ toHaveStyleRule });
const Button = styled.button`
color: red;
`;
// Test
it('should have red color', () => {
const wrapper = mount(<Button />);
expect(wrapper).toHaveStyleRule('color', 'red');
});
toMatchSnapshot
The `toMatchSnapshot` matcher allows you to take a snapshot of the rendered component and compare it to a previously saved snapshot. This is useful for ensuring that the component's styles have not changed unexpectedly.
const styled = require('styled-components').default;
const { toMatchSnapshot } = require('jest-styled-components');
expect.extend({ toMatchSnapshot });
const Button = styled.button`
color: red;
`;
// Test
it('should match the snapshot', () => {
const wrapper = mount(<Button />);
expect(wrapper).toMatchSnapshot();
});
