Version: 29.7

Globales

In your test files, Jest puts each of these methods and objects into the global environment. You don't have to require or import anything to use them. However, if you prefer explicit imports, you can do import {describe, expect, test} from '@jest/globals'.

info

Los ejemplos de TypeScript de esta página sólo funcionarán como documentados si se importan explícitamente APIs de Jest:

import {expect, jest, test} from '@jest/globals';

Consult the Getting Started guide for details on how to setup Jest with TypeScript.

`afterAll(fn, tiempo)`

Ejecuta una función después de que todos los test en este archivo se hayan completado. Si la función devuelve una promesa o es una función generadora, Jest espera a que la promesa se resuelva antes de continuar.

Opcionalmente, puedes pasar un tiempo (en milisegundos) especificando cuanto esperar antes de abortar. The default timeout is 5 seconds.

Por ejemplo:

const globalDatabase = makeGlobalDatabase();

function cleanUpDatabase(db) {
  db.cleanUp();
}

afterAll(() => {
  cleanUpDatabase(globalDatabase);
});

test('can find things', () => {
  return globalDatabase.find('thing', {}, results => {
    expect(results.length).toBeGreaterThan(0);
  });
});

test('can insert a thing', () => {
  return globalDatabase.insert('thing', makeThing(), response => {
    expect(response.success).toBeTruthy();
  });
});

Si afterAll es llamado dentro de un bloque describe, este se ejecutará al final de la ejecución del bloque describe.

Si se desea ejecutar algún tipo de limpieza o restablecimiento después de cada prueba en lugar de al final de todas las pruebas, se puede utilizar afterEach.

`afterEach(fn, tiempo)`

Runs a function after each one of the tests in this file completes. Si la función devuelve una promesa o es una función generadora, Jest espera a que la promesa se resuelva antes de continuar.

Opcionalmente, puedes pasar un tiempo (en milisegundos) especificando cuanto esperar antes de abortar. The default timeout is 5 seconds.

Por ejemplo:

const globalDatabase = makeGlobalDatabase();

function cleanUpDatabase(db) {
  db.cleanUp();
}

afterEach(() => {
  cleanUpDatabase(globalDatabase);
});

test('can find things', () => {
  return globalDatabase.find('thing', {}, results => {
    expect(results.length).toBeGreaterThan(0);
  });
});

test('can insert a thing', () => {
  return globalDatabase.insert('thing', makeThing(), response => {
    expect(response.success).toBeTruthy();
  });
});

Si afterAll es llamado dentro de un bloque describe, este se ejecutará al final de la ejecución de cada prueba en el bloque describe.

Si se desea ejecutar algún tipo de limpieza o restablecimiento una sola vez por todas las pruebas, se puede utilizar afterAll.

`beforeAll(fn, tiempo)`

Runs a function before any of the tests in this file run. If the function returns a promise or is a generator, Jest waits for that promise to resolve before running tests.

Opcionalmente, puedes pasar un tiempo (en milisegundos) especificando cuanto esperar antes de abortar. The default timeout is 5 seconds.

Por ejemplo:

const globalDatabase = makeGlobalDatabase();

beforeEach(() => {
  // Clears the database and adds some testing data.
  // Jest will wait for this promise to resolve before running tests.
  return globalDatabase.clear().then(() => {
    return globalDatabase.insert({testData: 'foo'});
  });
});

test('can find things', () => {
  return globalDatabase.find('thing', {}, results => {
    expect(results.length).toBeGreaterThan(0);
  });
});

test('can insert a thing', () => {
  return globalDatabase.insert('thing', makeThing(), response => {
    expect(response.success).toBeTruthy();
  });
});

Aquí el bloque beforeAll garantiza que la base de datos sea configurada antes de que se ejecuten las pruebas. If setup was synchronous, you could do this without beforeAll. La clave es que Jest espera a una promise para resolver, de modo que también se puede tener configuración inicial setup asincrona.

Si se desea ejecutar código antes de cada prueba en lugar de antes de todas las pruebas, se puede usar beforeEach.

`beforeEach(fn, tiempo)`

Runs a function before each of the tests in this file runs. If the function returns a promise or is a generator, Jest waits for that promise to resolve before running the test.

Opcionalmente, puedes pasar un tiempo (en milisegundos) especificando cuanto esperar antes de abortar. The default timeout is 5 seconds.

Por ejemplo:

const globalDatabase = makeGlobalDatabase();

beforeAll(() => {
  // Clears the database and adds some testing data.
  // Jest will wait for this promise to resolve before running tests.
  return globalDatabase.clear().then(() => {
    return globalDatabase.insert({testData: 'foo'});
  });
});

// Since we only set up the database once in this example, it's important
// that our tests don't modify it. test('can find things', () => {
  return globalDatabase.find('thing', {}, results => {
    expect(results.length).toBeGreaterThan(0);
  });
});

Si el bloque beforeAll se encuentra dentro de un bloque describe, esté se ejecutará una vez antes de cada prueba en el bloque describe.

Si se desea ejecutar código de configuración inicial, una sola vez antes de cualquier prueba, usesé beforeAll.

`describe(name, fn)`

describe(name, fn) creates a block that groups together several related tests. Por ejemplo, si se tiene una objeto myBeverage que representa una bebida que debe ser deliciosa pero no agria, se podría probar con:

const myBeverage = {
  delicious: true,
  sour: false,
};

describe('my beverage', () => {
  test('is delicious', () => {
    expect(myBeverage.delicious).toBeTruthy();
  });

  test('is not sour', () => {
    expect(myBeverage.sour).toBeFalsy();
  });
});

This isn't required - you can write the test blocks directly at the top level. But this can be handy if you prefer your tests to be organized into groups.

También se pueden anidar bloques describe si se tiene una jerarquía de pruebas:

const binaryStringToNumber = binString => {
  if (!/^[01]+$/.test(binString)) {
    throw new CustomError('Not a binary number.');
  }

  return parseInt(binString, 2);
};

describe('binaryStringToNumber', () => {
  describe('given an invalid binary string', () => {
    test('composed of non-numbers throws CustomError', () => {
      expect(() => binaryStringToNumber('abc')).toThrow(CustomError);
    });

    test('with extra whitespace throws CustomError', () => {
      expect(() => binaryStringToNumber('  100')).toThrow(CustomError);
    });
  });

  describe('given a valid binary string', () => {
    test('returns the correct number', () => {
      expect(binaryStringToNumber('100')).toBe(4);
    });
  });
});

`describe.each(table)(name, fn, timeout)`

Use describe.each if you keep duplicating the same test suites with different data. describe.each allows you to write the test suite once and pass data in.

describe.each is available with two APIs:

1. `describe.each(table)(name, fn, timeout)`

table: Array of Arrays with the arguments that are passed into the fn for each row. If you pass in a 1D array of primitives, internally it will be mapped to a table i.e. [1, 2, 3] -> [[1], [2], [3]].
name: String the title of the test suite.
- Generate unique test titles by positionally injecting parameters with printf formatting:
  - %p - pretty-format.
  - %s- String.
  - %d- Number.
  - %i - Integer.
  - %f - Floating point value.
  - %j - JSON.
  - %o - Object.
  - %# - Index of the test case.
  - %% - single percent sign ('%'). This does not consume an argument.
- Or generate unique test titles by injecting properties of test case object with $variable
  - To inject nested object values use you can supply a keyPath i.e. $variable.path.to.value
  - You can use $# to inject the index of the test case
  - You cannot use $variable with the printf formatting except for %%
fn: Function the suite of tests to be run, this is the function that will receive the parameters in each row as function arguments.
Optionally, you can provide a timeout (in milliseconds) for specifying how long to wait for each row before aborting. The default timeout is 5 seconds.

Ejemplo:

describe.each([
  [1, 1, 2],
  [1, 2, 3],
  [2, 1, 3],
])('.add(%i, %i)', (a, b, expected) => {
  test(`returns ${expected}`, () => {
    expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
  });

  test(`returned value not be greater than ${expected}`, () => {
    expect(a + b).not.toBeGreaterThan(expected);
  });

  test(`returned value not be less than ${expected}`, () => {
    expect(a + b).not.toBeLessThan(expected);
  });
});

describe.each([
  {a: 1, b: 1, expected: 2},
  {a: 1, b: 2, expected: 3},
  {a: 2, b: 1, expected: 3},
])('.add($a, $b)', ({a, b, expected}) => {
  test(`returns ${expected}`, () => {
    expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
  });

  test(`returned value not be greater than ${expected}`, () => {
    expect(a + b).not.toBeGreaterThan(expected);
  });

  test(`returned value not be less than ${expected}`, () => {
    expect(a + b).not.toBeLessThan(expected);
  });
});

2. describe.each`table`(name, fn, timeout)

table: Tagged Template Literal
- First row of variable name column headings separated with |
- One or more subsequent rows of data supplied as template literal expressions using ${value} syntax.
name: String the title of the test suite, use $variable to inject test data into the suite title from the tagged template expressions, and $# for the index of the row.
- To inject nested object values use you can supply a keyPath i.e. $variable.path.to.value
fn: Function the suite of tests to be run, this is the function that will receive the test data object.
Optionally, you can provide a timeout (in milliseconds) for specifying how long to wait for each row before aborting. The default timeout is 5 seconds.

Ejemplo:

describe.each`
  a    | b    | expected
  ${1} | ${1} | ${2}
  ${1} | ${2} | ${3}
  ${2} | ${1} | ${3}
`('$a + $b', ({a, b, expected}) => {
  test(`returns ${expected}`, () => {
    expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
  });

  test(`returned value not be greater than ${expected}`, () => {
    expect(a + b).not.toBeGreaterThan(expected);
  });

  test(`returned value not be less than ${expected}`, () => {
    expect(a + b).not.toBeLessThan(expected);
  });
});

`describe.only(name, fn)`

Se puede utilizar describe.only si se desea ejecutar solo ún bloque describe:

Si el bloque beforeAll se encuentra dentro de un bloque describe, esté se ejecutará al principio del bloque describe.

describe.only('mi bebida', () => {
  test('es deliciosa', () => {
    expect(miBebida.deliciosa).toBeTruthy();
  });

  test('no es amarga', () => {
    expect(miBebida.amarga).toBeFalsy();
  });
});

describe('mi otra bebida', () => {
  // ... will be skipped
});

`describe.only.each(table)(name, fn)`

Also under the aliases: fdescribe.each(table)(name, fn) and fdescribe.each`table`(name, fn)

Use describe.only.each if you want to only run specific tests suites of data driven tests.

describe.only.each is available with two APIs:

`describe.only.each(table)(name, fn)`

describe.only.each([
  [1, 1, 2],
  [1, 2, 3],
  [2, 1, 3],
])('.add(%i, %i)', (a, b, expected) => {
  test(`returns ${expected}`, () => {
    expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
  });
});

test('will not be run', () => {
  expect(1 / 0).toBe(Infinity);
});

describe.only.each`table`(name, fn)

describe.only.each`
  a    | b    | expected
  ${1} | ${1} | ${2}
  ${1} | ${2} | ${3}
  ${2} | ${1} | ${3}
`('returns $expected when $a is added to $b', ({a, b, expected}) => {
  test('passes', () => {
    expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
  });
});

test('will not be run', () => {
  expect(1 / 0).toBe(Infinity);
});

`describe.skip(name, fn)`

Se puede utilizar describe.skip si se desea omitirun bloque describe en particular:

You can use describe.skip if you do not want to run the tests of a particular describe block:

describe('mi bebida', () => {
  test('es deliciosa', () => {
    expect(miBebida.deliciosa).toBeTruthy();
  });

  test('no es amarga', () => {
    expect(miBebida.amarga).toBeFalsy();
  });
});

describe.skip('mi otra bebida', () => {
  // ... will be skipped
});

Using describe.skip is often a cleaner alternative to temporarily commenting out a chunk of tests. Beware that the describe block will still run. If you have some setup that also should be skipped, do it in a beforeAll or beforeEach block.

`describe.skip.each(table)(name, fn)`

Also under the aliases: xdescribe.each(table)(name, fn) and xdescribe.each`table`(name, fn)

Use describe.skip.each if you want to stop running a suite of data driven tests.

describe.skip.each is available with two APIs:

`describe.skip.each(table)(name, fn)`

describe.skip.each([
  [1, 1, 2],
  [1, 2, 3],
  [2, 1, 3],
])('.add(%i, %i)', (a, b, expected) => {
  test(`returns ${expected}`, () => {
    expect(a + b).toBe(expected); // will not be run
  });
});

test('will be run', () => {
  expect(1 / 0).toBe(Infinity);
});

describe.skip.each`table`(name, fn)

describe.skip.each`
  a    | b    | expected
  ${1} | ${1} | ${2}
  ${1} | ${2} | ${3}
  ${2} | ${1} | ${3}
`('returns $expected when $a is added to $b', ({a, b, expected}) => {
  test('will not be run', () => {
    expect(a + b).toBe(expected); // will not be run
  });
});

test('will be run', () => {
  expect(1 / 0).toBe(Infinity);
});

`prueba(nombre, fn, tiempo)`

También con el alias: it(name, fn, tiempo)

Todo lo que se requiere en un archivo de prueba es el metodo test para ejecutar una prueba. Por ejemplo, se asume una función que mide las pulgadas de lluvia inchesOfRain() debe regresar cero. La prueba completa sería:

test('did not rain', () => {
  expect(inchesOfRain()).toBe(0);
});

The first argument is the test name; the second argument is an asynchronous function that contains the expectations to test. The third argument (optional) is timeout (in milliseconds) for specifying how long to wait before aborting. The default timeout is 5 seconds.

If a promise is returned from test, Jest will wait for the promise to resolve before letting the test complete. Por ejemplo, se asume una función que regresa una lista de bebidas fetchBeverageList(). Si esta función regresa una promise que se resuelve a una lista que contiene lemon. Podemos probarlo con:

test('has lemon in it', () => {
  return fetchBeverageList().then(list => {
    expect(list).toContain('lemon');
  });
});

Even though the call to test will return right away, the test doesn't complete until the promise resolves. For more details, see Testing Asynchronous Code page.

tip

Jest will also wait if you provide an argument to the test function, usually called done. This could be handy when you want to test callbacks.

`test.concurrent(name, fn, timeout)`

Also under the alias: it.concurrent(name, fn, timeout)

caution

test.concurrent is considered experimental - see here for details on missing features and other issues.

Use test.concurrent if you want the test to run concurrently.

El primer argumento es el nombre de la prueba, el segundo argumento es una función con el codigo de expectativas a ser probadas. The third argument (optional) is timeout (in milliseconds) for specifying how long to wait before aborting. The default timeout is 5 seconds.

test.concurrent('addition of 2 numbers', async () => {
  expect(5 + 3).toBe(8);
});

test.concurrent('subtraction 2 numbers', async () => {
  expect(5 - 3).toBe(2);
});

tip

Use the maxConcurrency configuration option to prevent Jest from executing more than the specified amount of tests at the same time.

`test.concurrent.each(table)(name, fn, timeout)`

Also under the alias: it.concurrent.each(table)(name, fn, timeout)

Use test.concurrent.each if you keep duplicating the same test with different data. test.each allows you to write the test once and pass data in, the tests are all run asynchronously.

test.concurrent.each is available with two APIs:

1. `test.concurrent.each(table)(name, fn, timeout)`

table: Array of Arrays with the arguments that are passed into the test fn for each row. If you pass in a 1D array of primitives, internally it will be mapped to a table i.e. [1, 2, 3] -> [[1], [2], [3]]
name: String the title of the test block.
- Generate unique test titles by positionally injecting parameters with printf formatting:
  - %p - pretty-format.
  - %s- String.
  - %d- Number.
  - %i - Integer.
  - %f - Floating point value.
  - %j - JSON.
  - %o - Object.
  - %# - Index of the test case.
  - %% - single percent sign ('%'). This does not consume an argument.
fn: Function the test to be run, this is the function that will receive the parameters in each row as function arguments, this will have to be an asynchronous function.
Optionally, you can provide a timeout (in milliseconds) for specifying how long to wait for each row before aborting. The default timeout is 5 seconds.

Ejemplo:

test.concurrent.each([
  [1, 1, 2],
  [1, 2, 3],
  [2, 1, 3],
])('.add(%i, %i)', async (a, b, expected) => {
  expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
});

2. test.concurrent.each`table`(name, fn, timeout)

table: Tagged Template Literal
- First row of variable name column headings separated with |
- One or more subsequent rows of data supplied as template literal expressions using ${value} syntax.
name: String the title of the test, use $variable to inject test data into the test title from the tagged template expressions.
- To inject nested object values use you can supply a keyPath i.e. $variable.path.to.value

});

`test.concurrent.only.each(table)(name, fn)`

Also under the alias: it.concurrent.only.each(table)(name, fn)

Use test.concurrent.only.each if you want to only run specific tests with different test data concurrently.

test.concurrent.only.each is available with two APIs:

`test.concurrent.only.each(table)(name, fn)`

test.concurrent.only.each([
  [1, 1, 2],
  [1, 2, 3],
  [2, 1, 3],
])('.add(%i, %i)', async (a, b, expected) => {
  expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
});

test('will not be run', () => {
  expect(1 / 0).toBe(Infinity);
});

test.only.each`table`(name, fn)

  a    | b    | expected
  ${1} | ${1} | ${2}
  ${1} | ${2} | ${3}
  ${2} | ${1} | ${3}
`('returns $expected when $a is added to $b', async ({a, b, expected}) => {
  expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
});

test('will not be run', () => {
  expect(1 / 0).toBe(Infinity);
});

`test.concurrent.skip.each(table)(name, fn)`

Also under the alias: it.concurrent.skip.each(table)(name, fn)

Use test.concurrent.skip.each if you want to stop running a collection of asynchronous data driven tests.

test.concurrent.skip.each is available with two APIs:

`test.concurrent.skip.each(table)(name, fn)`

test.concurrent.skip.each([
  [1, 1, 2],
  [1, 2, 3],
  [2, 1, 3],

});

test('will be run', () => {
  expect(1 / 0).toBe(Infinity);
});

`test.each(table)(name, fn, timeout)`

Also under the alias: it.each(table)(name, fn) and it.each`table`(name, fn)

Use test.each if you keep duplicating the same test with different data. test.each allows you to write the test once and pass data in.

  {a: 1, b: 2, expected: 3},
  {a: 2, b: 1, expected: 3},
])('.add($a, $b)', ({a, b, expected}) => {
  expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
});

2. test.each`table`(name, fn, timeout)

table: Tagged Template Literal
- First row of variable name column headings separated with |

  ${2} | ${1} | ${3}
`('returns $expected when $a is added to $b', ({a, b, expected}) => {
  expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
});

`test.failing(name, fn, timeout)`

Also under the alias: it.failing(name, fn, timeout)

note

This is only available with the default jest-circus runner.

Use test.failing when you are writing a test and expecting it to fail. These tests will behave the other way normal tests do. If failing test will throw any errors then it will pass. If it does not throw it will fail.

tip

You can use this type of test i.e. when writing code in a BDD way. In that case the tests will not show up as failing until they pass. Then you can just remove the failing modifier to make them pass.

It can also be a nice way to contribute failing tests to a project, even if you don't know how to fix the bug.

Ejemplo:

test.failing('it is not equal', () => {
  expect(5).toBe(6); // this test will pass
});

test.failing('it is equal', () => {
  expect(10).toBe(10); // this test will fail
});

`test.failing.each(name, fn, timeout)`

Also under the alias: it.failing.each(table)(name, fn) and it.failing.each`table`(name, fn)

note

This is only available with the default jest-circus runner.

You can also run multiple tests at once by adding each after failing.

Ejemplo:

test.failing.each([
  {a: 1, b: 1, expected: 2},
  {a: 1, b: 2, expected: 3},
  {a: 2, b: 1, expected: 3},
])('.add($a, $b)', ({a, b, expected}) => {
  expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
});

`test.only.failing(name, fn, timeout)`

Also under the aliases: it.only.failing(name, fn, timeout), fit.failing(name, fn, timeout)

note

This is only available with the default jest-circus runner.

Use test.only.failing if you want to only run a specific failing test.

`test.skip.failing(name, fn, timeout)`

Also under the aliases: it.skip.failing(name, fn, timeout), xit.failing(name, fn, timeout), xtest.failing(name, fn, timeout)

note

This is only available with the default jest-circus runner.

Use test.skip.failing if you want to skip running a specific failing test.

`test.only(name, fn, tiempo)`

Also under the aliases: it.only(name, fn, timeout), and fit(name, fn, timeout)

When you are debugging a large test file, you will often only want to run a subset of tests. You can use .only to specify which tests are the only ones you want to run in that test file.

Opcionalmente, puedes pasar un tiempo (en milisegundos) especificando cuanto esperar antes de abortar. The default timeout is 5 seconds.

Por ejemplo, digamos que se tuviera estas pruebas:

test.only('it is raining', () => {
  expect(inchesOfRain()).toBeGreaterThan(0);
});

test('it is not snowing', () => {
  expect(inchesOfSnow()).toBe(0);
});

Only the "it is raining" test will run in that test file, since it is run with test.only.

Usually you wouldn't check code using test.only into source control - you would use it for debugging, and remove it once you have fixed the broken tests.

`test.only.each(table)(name, fn)`

Also under the aliases: it.only.each(table)(name, fn), fit.each(table)(name, fn), it.only.each`table`(name, fn) and fit.each`table`(name, fn)

Use test.only.each if you want to only run specific tests with different test data.

test.only.each is available with two APIs:

`test.only.each(table)(name, fn)`

test.only.each([
  [1, 1, 2],
  [1, 2, 3],
  [2, 1, 3],
])('.add(%i, %i)', (a, b, expected) => {
  expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
});

test('will not be run', () => {
  expect(1 / 0).toBe(Infinity);
});

test.only.each`table`(name, fn)

test.only.each`
  a    | b    | expected
  ${1} | ${1} | ${2}
  ${1} | ${2} | ${3}
  ${2} | ${1} | ${3}
`('returns $expected when $a is added to $b', ({a, b, expected}) => {
  expect(a + b).toBe(expected);
});

test('will not be run', () => {
  expect(1 / 0).toBe(Infinity);
});

`test.skip(name, fn)`

Also under the aliases: it.skip(name, fn), xit(name, fn), and xtest(name, fn)

Cuando se trabaja en una gran base de código, es frecuente encontrar alguna prueba que falla de manera temporal. If you want to skip running this test, but you don't want to delete this code, you can use test.skip to specify some tests to skip.

Por ejemplo, digamos que se tuviera estas pruebas:

test('it is raining', () => {
  expect(inchesOfRain()).toBeGreaterThan(0);
});

test.skip('it is not snowing', () => {
  expect(inchesOfSnow()).toBe(0);
});

Sólo se ejecutaría la prueba "it is raning", pues se agregó test.skip a la otra prueba.

You could comment the test out, but it's often a bit nicer to use test.skip because it will maintain indentation and syntax highlighting.

`test.skip.each(table)(name, fn)`

Also under the aliases: it.skip.each(table)(name, fn), xit.each(table)(name, fn), xtest.each(table)(name, fn), it.skip.each`table`(name, fn), xit.each`table`(name, fn) and xtest.each`table`(name, fn)

Use test.skip.each if you want to stop running a collection of data driven tests.

test.skip.each is available with two APIs:

`test.skip.each(table)(name, fn)`

test.skip.each([
  [1, 1, 2],
  [1, 2, 3],
  [2, 1, 3],
])('.add(%i, %i)', (a, b, expected) => {
  expect(a + b).toBe(expected); // will not be run
});

test('will be run', () => {
  expect(1 / 0).toBe(Infinity);
});

test.skip.each`table`(name, fn)

test.skip.each`
  a    | b    | expected
  ${1} | ${1} | ${2}
  ${1} | ${2} | ${3}
  ${2} | ${1} | ${3}
`('returns $expected when $a is added to $b', ({a, b, expected}) => {
  expect(a + b).toBe(expected); // will not be run
});

test('will be run', () => {
  expect(1 / 0).toBe(Infinity);
});

`test.todo(name)`

Also under the alias: it.todo(name)

Use test.todo when you are planning on writing tests. These tests will be highlighted in the summary output at the end so you know how many tests you still need todo.

const add = (a, b) => a + b;

test.todo('add should be associative');

tip

test.todo will throw an error if you pass it a test callback function. Use test.skip instead, if you already implemented the test, but do not want it to run.

TypeScript Usage

info

Los ejemplos de TypeScript de esta página sólo funcionarán como documentados si se importan explícitamente APIs de Jest:

import {expect, jest, test} from '@jest/globals';

Consult the Getting Started guide for details on how to setup Jest with TypeScript.

`.each`

The .each modifier offers few different ways to define a table of the test cases. Some of the APIs have caveats related with the type inference of the arguments which are passed to describe or test callback functions. Let's take a look at each of them.

note

For simplicity test.each is picked for the examples, but the type inference is identical in all cases where .each modifier can be used: describe.each, test.concurrent.only.each, test.skip.each, etc.

Array of objects

The array of objects API is most verbose, but it makes the type inference a painless task. A table can be inlined:

import {test} from '@jest/globals';

test.each([
  {name: 'a', path: 'path/to/a', count: 1, write: true},
  {name: 'b', path: 'path/to/b', count: 3},
])('inline table', ({name, path, count, write}) => {
  // arguments are typed as expected, e.g. `write: boolean | undefined`
});

Or declared separately as a variable:

import {test} from '@jest/globals';

const table = [
  {a: 1, b: 2, expected: 'three', extra: true},
  {a: 3, b: 4, expected: 'seven', extra: false},
  {a: 5, b: 6, expected: 'eleven'},
];

test.each(table)('table as a variable', ({a, b, expected, extra}) => {
  // again everything is typed as expected, e.g. `extra: boolean | undefined`
});

Array of arrays

The array of arrays style will work smoothly with inlined tables:

import {test} from '@jest/globals';

test.each([
  [1, 2, 'three', true],
  [3, 4, 'seven', false],
  [5, 6, 'eleven'],
])('inline table example', (a, b, expected, extra) => {
  // arguments are typed as expected, e.g. `extra: boolean | undefined`
});

However, if a table is declared as a separate variable, it must be typed as an array of tuples for correct type inference (this is not needed only if all elements of a row are of the same type):

import {test} from '@jest/globals';

const table: Array<[number, number, string, boolean?]> = [
  [1, 2, 'three', true],
  [3, 4, 'seven', false],
  [5, 6, 'eleven'],
];

test.each(table)('table as a variable example', (a, b, expected, extra) => {
  // without the annotation types are incorrect, e.g. `a: number | string | boolean`
});

Template literal

If all values are of the same type, the template literal API will type the arguments correctly:

import {test} from '@jest/globals';

test.each`
  a    | b    | expected
  ${1} | ${2} | ${3}
  ${3} | ${4} | ${7}
  ${5} | ${6} | ${11}
`('template literal example', ({a, b, expected}) => {
  // all arguments are of type `number`
});

Otherwise it will require a generic type argument:

import {test} from '@jest/globals';

test.each<{a: number; b: number; expected: string; extra?: boolean}>`
  a    | b    | expected    | extra
  ${1} | ${2} | ${'three'}  | ${true}
  ${3} | ${4} | ${'seven'}  | ${false}
  ${5} | ${6} | ${'eleven'}
`('template literal example', ({a, b, expected, extra}) => {
  // without the generic argument in this case types would default to `unknown`
});
