Testing Pushkin with Jest

The content on this page may be out of date - stay tuned for edits!

​Jest is a JavaScript library for creating, running, and structuring tests.

Install Jest using yarn:

$ yarn add --dev jest

To use Babel, install required dependencies via yarn:

$ yarn add --dev babel-jest @babel/core @babel/preset-env

Configure Babel to target your current version of Node by creating a babel.config.js file in the root of your project:

// babel.config.js
 module.exports = {
     presets: [
         [
             '@babel/preset-env',
             {
                 targets: {
                     node: 'current',
                 },
             },
         ],
     ],
 };

The ideal configuration for Babel will depend on your project. See Babel’s docs for more details.
