Funções de Simulação

Mock functions are also known as "spies", because they let you spy on the behavior of a function that is called indirectly by some other code, rather than only testing the output. Você pode criar uma função de simulação (mock, em inglês) com jest.fn(). Se nenhuma implementação é dada, a função de simulação retornará undefined quando invocada.

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

Métodos​

Referência​

mockFn.getMockName()​

Returns the mock name string set by calling .mockName().

mockFn.mock.calls​

An array containing the call arguments of all calls that have been made to this mock function. Each item in the array is an array of arguments that were passed during the call.

For example: A mock function f that has been called twice, with the arguments f('arg1', 'arg2'), and then with the arguments f('arg3', 'arg4'), would have a mock.calls array that looks like this:

[
  ['arg1', 'arg2'],
  ['arg3', 'arg4'],
];

mockFn.mock.results​

An array containing the results of all calls that have been made to this mock function. Each entry in this array is an object containing a type property, and a value property. type will be one of the following:

  • 'return' - Indicates that the call completed by returning normally.
  • 'throw' - Indicates that the call completed by throwing a value.
  • 'incomplete' - Indicates that the call has not yet completed. This occurs if you test the result from within the mock function itself, or from within a function that was called by the mock.

The value property contains the value that was thrown or returned. value is undefined when type === 'incomplete'.

For example: A mock function f that has been called three times, returning 'result1', throwing an error, and then returning 'result2', would have a mock.results array that looks like this:

[
  {
    type: 'return',
    value: 'result1',
  },
  {
    type: 'throw',
    value: {
      /* Error instance */
    },
  },
  {
    type: 'return',
    value: 'result2',
  },
];

mockFn.mock.instances​

Por exemplo: uma função de simulação que foi instanciada duas vezes teria o seguinte array de mock.instances:

Redefine todas as informações armazenadas nos arrays de mockFn.mock.calls e mockFn.mock.instances.

const mockFn = jest.fn();

const a = new mockFn();
const b = new mockFn();

mockFn.mock.instances[0] === a; // true
mockFn.mock.instances[1] === b; // true

mockFn.mock.contexts​

An array that contains the contexts for all calls of the mock function.

A context is the this value that a function receives when called. The context can be set using Function.prototype.bind, Function.prototype.call or Function.prototype.apply.

Por exemplo:

const mockFn = jest.fn();

const boundMockFn = mockFn.bind(thisContext0);
boundMockFn('a', 'b');
mockFn.call(thisContext1, 'a', 'b');
mockFn.apply(thisContext2, ['a', 'b']);

mockFn.mock.contexts[0] === thisContext0; // true
mockFn.mock.contexts[1] === thisContext1; // true
mockFn.mock.contexts[2] === thisContext2; // true

mockFn.mock.lastCall​

An array containing the call arguments of the last call that was made to this mock function. If the function was not called, it will return undefined.

For example: A mock function f that has been called twice, with the arguments f('arg1', 'arg2'), and then with the arguments f('arg3', 'arg4'), would have a mock.lastCall array that looks like this:

['arg3', 'arg4'];

mockFn.mockClear()​

Clears all information stored in the mockFn.mock.calls, mockFn.mock.instances, mockFn.mock.contexts and mockFn.mock.results arrays. Often this is useful when you want to clean up a mocks usage data between two assertions.

The clearMocks configuration option is available to clear mocks automatically before each tests.

atenção

Beware that mockFn.mockClear() will replace mockFn.mock, not just reset the values of its properties! Evite portanto atribuir mockFn.mock a outras variáveis, temporárias ou não, para ter certeza que não acessará dados antigos.

mockFn.mockReset()​

Does everything that mockFn.mockClear() does, and also replaces the mock implementation with an empty function, returning undefined.

The resetMocks configuration option is available to reset mocks automatically before each test.

mockFn.mockRestore()​

Does everything that mockFn.mockReset() does, and also restores the original (non-mocked) implementation.

Isso é útil quando você quer simular funções em certos casos de teste e restaurar a implementação original em outros.

The restoreMocks configuration option is available to restore mocks automatically before each test.

informação

mockFn.mockRestore() only works when the mock was created with jest.spyOn(). Assim, tem que cuidar da restauração você mesmo quando atribuir manualmente jest.fn().

mockFn.mockImplementation(fn)​

Aceita uma função que deve ser usada como a implementação da simulação (mock, em inglês). A simulação em si ainda irá gravar todas as chamadas que entram e instâncias que vêm dela própria – a única diferença é que a implementação também será executada quando a simulação é chamada.

tip

jest.fn(implementation) is a shorthand for jest.fn().mockImplementation(implementation).

const mockFn = jest.fn(scalar => 42 + scalar);

mockFn(0); // 42
mockFn(1); // 43

mockFn.mockImplementation(scalar => 36 + scalar);

mockFn(2); // 38
mockFn(3); // 39

.mockImplementation() can also be used to mock class constructors:

SomeClass.js
module.exports = class SomeClass {
  method(a, b) {}
};
SomeClass.test.js
const SomeClass = require('./SomeClass');

jest.mock('./SomeClass'); // this happens automatically with automocking

const mockMethod = jest.fn();
SomeClass.mockImplementation(() => {
  return {
    method: mockMethod,
  };
});

const some = new SomeClass();
some.method('a', 'b');

console.log('Calls to method:', mockMethod.mock.calls);

mockFn.mockImplementationOnce(fn)​

Aceita uma função que será usada como uma implementação de simulação para uma chamada à função simulada (mocked, em inglês). Podem ser encadeadas para que várias chamadas de função produzam resultados diferentes.

const mockFn = jest
  .fn()
  .mockImplementationOnce(cb => cb(null, true))
  .mockImplementationOnce(cb => cb(null, false));

mockFn((err, val) => console.log(val)); // true
mockFn((err, val) => console.log(val)); // false

When the mocked function runs out of implementations defined with .mockImplementationOnce(), it will execute the default implementation set with jest.fn(() => defaultValue) or .mockImplementation(() => defaultValue) if they were called:

const mockFn = jest
  .fn(() => 'default')
  .mockImplementationOnce(() => 'first call')
  .mockImplementationOnce(() => 'second call');

mockFn(); // 'first call'
mockFn(); // 'second call'
mockFn(); // 'default'
mockFn(); // 'default'

mockFn.mockName(name)​

Accepts a string to use in test result output in place of 'jest.fn()' to indicate which mock function is being referenced.

Por exemplo:

const mockFn = jest.fn().mockName('mockedFunction');

// mockFn();
expect(mockFn).toHaveBeenCalled();

Will result in this error:

expect(mockedFunction).toHaveBeenCalled()

Expected number of calls: >= 1
Received number of calls:    0

mockFn.mockReturnThis()​

Shorthand for:

jest.fn(function () {
  return this;
});

mockFn.mockReturnValue(value)​

Shorthand for:

jest.fn().mockImplementation(() => value);

Aceita um valor que será retornado sempre que a função de simulação é chamada.

const mock = jest.fn();

mock.mockReturnValue(42);
mock(); // 42

mock.mockReturnValue(43);
mock(); // 43

mockFn.mockReturnValueOnce(value)​

Shorthand for:

jest.fn().mockImplementationOnce(() => value);

Aceita um valor que será retornado por uma chamada para a função de simulação. Podem ser encadeados para que sucessivas chamadas para a função de simulação retornem valores diferentes. Quando não há mais valores mockReturnValueOnce para usar, chamadas irão retornar um valor especificado pelo mockReturnValue.

const mockFn = jest
  .fn()
  .mockReturnValue('default')
  .mockReturnValueOnce('first call')
  .mockReturnValueOnce('second call');

mockFn(); // 'first call'
mockFn(); // 'second call'
mockFn(); // 'default'
mockFn(); // 'default'

mockFn.mockResolvedValue(value)​

Shorthand for:

jest.fn().mockImplementation(() => Promise.resolve(value));

Useful to mock async functions in async tests:

test('async test', async () => {
  const asyncMock = jest.fn().mockResolvedValue(43);

  await asyncMock(); // 43
});

mockFn.mockResolvedValueOnce(value)​

Shorthand for:

jest.fn().mockImplementationOnce(() => Promise.resolve(value));

Useful to resolve different values over multiple async calls:

test('async test', async () => {
  const asyncMock = jest
    .fn()
    .mockResolvedValue('default')
    .mockResolvedValueOnce('first call')
    .mockResolvedValueOnce('second call');

  await asyncMock(); // 'first call'
  await asyncMock(); // 'second call'
  await asyncMock(); // 'default'
  await asyncMock(); // 'default'
});

mockFn.mockRejectedValue(value)​

Shorthand for:

jest.fn().mockImplementation(() => Promise.reject(value));

Useful to create async mock functions that will always reject:

test('async test', async () => {
  const asyncMock = jest
    .fn()
    .mockRejectedValue(new Error('Async error message'));

  await asyncMock(); // throws 'Async error message'
});

mockFn.mockRejectedValueOnce(value)​

Shorthand for:

jest.fn().mockImplementationOnce(() => Promise.reject(value));

Useful together with .mockResolvedValueOnce() or to reject with different exceptions over multiple async calls:

test('async test', async () => {
  const asyncMock = jest
    .fn()
    .mockResolvedValueOnce('first call')
    .mockRejectedValueOnce(new Error('Async error message'));

  await asyncMock(); // 'first call'
  await asyncMock(); // throws 'Async error message'
});

mockFn.withImplementation(fn, callback)​

Accepts a function which should be temporarily used as the implementation of the mock while the callback is being executed.

test('test', () => {
  const mock = jest.fn(() => 'outside callback');

  mock.withImplementation(
    () => 'inside callback',
    () => {
      mock(); // 'inside callback'
    },
  );

  mock(); // 'outside callback'
});

mockFn.withImplementation can be used regardless of whether or not the callback is asynchronous (returns a thenable). If the callback is asynchronous a promise will be returned. Awaiting the promise will await the callback and reset the implementation.

test('async test', async () => {
  const mock = jest.fn(() => 'outside callback');

  // We await this call since the callback is async
  await mock.withImplementation(
    () => 'inside callback',
    async () => {
      mock(); // 'inside callback'
    },
  );

  mock(); // 'outside callback'
});

Replaced Properties​

replacedProperty.replaceValue(value)​

Changes the value of already replaced property. This is useful when you want to replace property and then adjust the value in specific tests. As an alternative, you can call jest.replaceProperty() multiple times on same property.

replacedProperty.restore()​

Restores object's property to the original value.

Beware that replacedProperty.restore() only works when the property value was replaced with jest.replaceProperty().

The restoreMocks configuration option is available to restore replaced properties automatically before each test.

TypeScript Usage​

informação

Os exemplos de TypeScript desta página só funcionarão como documentados se você importar explicitamente APIs do Jest:

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

Consulte o guia Iniciando para obter detalhes sobre como configurar Jest com TypeScript.

jest.fn(implementation?)​

Correct mock typings will be inferred if implementation is passed to jest.fn(). There are many use cases where the implementation is omitted. To ensure type safety you may pass a generic type argument (also see the examples above for more reference):

import {expect, jest, test} from '@jest/globals';
import type add from './add';
import calculate from './calc';

test('calculate calls add', () => {
  // Create a new mock that can be used in place of `add`.
  const mockAdd = jest.fn<typeof add>();

  // `.mockImplementation()` now can infer that `a` and `b` are `number`
  // and that the returned value is a `number`.
  mockAdd.mockImplementation((a, b) => {
    // Yes, this mock is still adding two numbers but imagine this
    // was a complex function we are mocking.
    return a + b;
  });

  // `mockAdd` is properly typed and therefore accepted by anything
  // requiring `add`.
  calculate(mockAdd, 1, 2);

  expect(mockAdd).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);
  expect(mockAdd).toHaveBeenCalledWith(1, 2);
});

jest.Mock<T>​

Constructs the type of a mock function, e.g. the return type of jest.fn(). It can be useful if you have to defined a recursive mock function:

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

const sumRecursively: jest.Mock<(value: number) => number> = jest.fn(value => {
  if (value === 0) {
    return 0;
  } else {
    return value + fn(value - 1);
  }
});

jest.Mocked<Source>​

The jest.Mocked<Source> utility type returns the Source type wrapped with type definitions of Jest mock function.

import {expect, jest, test} from '@jest/globals';
import type {fetch} from 'node-fetch';

jest.mock('node-fetch');

let mockedFetch: jest.Mocked<typeof fetch>;

afterEach(() => {
  mockedFetch.mockClear();
});

test('makes correct call', () => {
  mockedFetch = getMockedFetch();
  // ...
});

test('returns correct data', () => {
  mockedFetch = getMockedFetch();
  // ...
});

Types of classes, functions or objects can be passed as type argument to jest.Mocked<Source>. If you prefer to constrain the input type, use: jest.MockedClass<Source>, jest.MockedFunction<Source> or jest.MockedObject<Source>.

jest.Replaced<Source>​

The jest.Replaced<Source> utility type returns the Source type wrapped with type definitions of Jest replaced property.

src/utils.ts
export function isLocalhost(): boolean {
  return process.env['HOSTNAME'] === 'localhost';
}
src/__tests__/utils.test.ts
import {afterEach, expect, it, jest} from '@jest/globals';
import {isLocalhost} from '../utils';

let replacedEnv: jest.Replaced<typeof process.env> | undefined = undefined;

afterEach(() => {
  replacedEnv?.restore();
});

it('isLocalhost should detect localhost environment', () => {
  replacedEnv = jest.replaceProperty(process, 'env', {HOSTNAME: 'localhost'});

  expect(isLocalhost()).toBe(true);
});

it('isLocalhost should detect non-localhost environment', () => {
  replacedEnv = jest.replaceProperty(process, 'env', {HOSTNAME: 'example.com'});

  expect(isLocalhost()).toBe(false);
});

jest.mocked(source, options?)​

The mocked() helper method wraps types of the source object and its deep nested members with type definitions of Jest mock function. You can pass {shallow: true} as the options argument to disable the deeply mocked behavior.

Returns the source object.

song.ts
export const song = {
  one: {
    more: {
      time: (t: number) => {
        return t;
      },
    },
  },
};
song.test.ts
import {expect, jest, test} from '@jest/globals';
import {song} from './song';

jest.mock('./song');
jest.spyOn(console, 'log');

const mockedSong = jest.mocked(song);
// or through `jest.Mocked<Source>`
// const mockedSong = song as jest.Mocked<typeof song>;

test('deep method is typed correctly', () => {
  mockedSong.one.more.time.mockReturnValue(12);

  expect(mockedSong.one.more.time(10)).toBe(12);
  expect(mockedSong.one.more.time.mock.calls).toHaveLength(1);
});

test('direct usage', () => {
  jest.mocked(console.log).mockImplementation(() => {
    return;
  });

  console.log('one more time');

  expect(jest.mocked(console.log).mock.calls).toHaveLength(1);
});

jest.Spied<Source>​

Constructs the type of a spied class or function (i.e. the return type of jest.spyOn()).

__utils__/setDateNow.ts
import {jest} from '@jest/globals';

export function setDateNow(now: number): jest.Spied<typeof Date.now> {
  return jest.spyOn(Date, 'now').mockReturnValue(now);
}
import {afterEach, expect, type jest, test} from '@jest/globals';
import {setDateNow} from './__utils__/setDateNow';

let spiedDateNow: jest.Spied<typeof Date.now> | undefined = undefined;

afterEach(() => {
  spiedDateNow?.mockReset();
});

test('renders correctly with a given date', () => {
  spiedDateNow = setDateNow(1_482_363_367_071);
  // ...

  expect(spiedDateNow).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);
});

Types of a class or function can be passed as type argument to jest.Spied<Source>. If you prefer to constrain the input type, use: jest.SpiedClass<Source> or jest.SpiedFunction<Source>.

Use jest.SpiedGetter<Source> or jest.SpiedSetter<Source> to create the type of a spied getter or setter respectively.
