In our last tutorial, we went over style testing. In this tutorial, we will go over functional testing for your React Native app.
Using Jest and Testing Library with React Native Part IV: Testing a Button
In our last tutorial, we went over how to test for an element/component that is not found. In this tutorial, we will go over adding a button to our React Native codebase. After the button is added, we’ll test it.
Using Jest and Testing Library with React Native Part III: Element Not Found
In the last installment (Part II), we walked through creating and executing our very first test. With that out of the way, let’s move on to something slightly more complicated. Elements that cannot be found typically are elements that are initially hidden. In this post, we’ll cover how to test for an element or component that isn’t found.
Using Jest and Testing Library with React Native Part II: Our First Test
This is Part 2 of our series, Using Jest and Testing Library with React Native. This post will cover the steps you’ll need to take to write your first test. We will also break down the code line-by-line, so you have a clear understanding of the process.
Avoiding Test-Driven Development?
Throughout time, there have been certain questions that will always result in great battles. In one recent throw down, I drew my line in the sand and bravely asserted, “Hell no, a hotdog is not a sandwich!”
There are other more dangerous questions that we’ve all heard, of course… is Mac better than PC? Is Android better than iPhone? Are dogs better than cats? That last question is the silliest of all as the correct answer is so very obvious. Regardless, these intriguing questions have often led to disastrous consequences such as sulking and hurt feelings.
Allow me to add another one to the list: Is Test-Driven Development (TDD) a good practice?
I know, provocative. In this blog, I will discuss test-driven development, why many in our field seem to hate it, and why you should choose to still implement some of its main concepts in your development….
