Globale
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'
.
The TypeScript examples from this page will only work as documented if you explicitly import Jest APIs:
import {expect, jest, test} from '@jest/globals';
Consult the Getting Started guide for details on how to setup Jest with TypeScript.

Reference
afterAll(fn, timeout)
Runs a function after all the tests in this file have completed. If the function returns a promise or is a generator, Jest waits for that promise to resolve before continuing.
Optionally, you can provide a timeout
(in milliseconds) for specifying how long to wait before aborting. The default timeout is 5 seconds.
De exemplu:
De exemplu:
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();
});
});
În cazul în care afterAll
este în interiorul unui bloc describe
, se va executa la sfârşitul blocului.
Dacă doriţi să rulaţi ceva logică de curățare după fiecare test, nu după toate testele, se poate utiliza afterEach
în schimb.
Dacă doriţi să rulaţi ceva logică de curățare după fiecare test, nu după toate testele, se poate utiliza afterEach
în schimb.
afterEach(fn, timeout)
Runs a function after each one of the tests in this file completes. If the function returns a promise or is a generator, Jest waits for that promise to resolve before continuing.
Optionally, you can provide a timeout
(in milliseconds) for specifying how long to wait before aborting. The default timeout is 5 seconds.
De exemplu:
De exemplu:
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();
});
});
În cazul în care afterEach
este în interiorul unui bloc describe
, se va executa doar după fiecare test din interiorul blocului.
Dacă doriţi să rulaţi ceva logică de curățare doar o singură dată, după execuția tuturor testelor, utilizaţi afterAll
în schimb.
Dacă doriţi să rulaţi ceva logică de curățare doar o singură dată, după execuția tuturor testelor, utilizaţi afterAll
în schimb.
beforeAll(fn, timeout)
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.
Optionally, you can provide a timeout
(in milliseconds) for specifying how long to wait before aborting. The default timeout is 5 seconds.
De exemplu:
De exemplu:
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);
});
});
Aici beforeAll
asigură că baza de date este setată înainte de a rula testele. If setup was synchronous, you could do this without beforeAll
. Cheia este că Jest va aştepta pentru un Promise să se rezolve, astfel încât puteţi avea o configurare asincronă, de asemenea.
Dacă doriţi să rulaţi ceva logică înaintea fiecărui test, nu înainte de toate testele, se poate utiliza beforeEach
în schimb.
Dacă doriţi să rulaţi ceva logică înaintea fiecărui test, nu înainte de toate testele, se poate utiliza beforeEach
în schimb.
beforeEach(fn, timeout)
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.
Optionally, you can provide a timeout
(in milliseconds) for specifying how long to wait before aborting. The default timeout is 5 seconds.
De exemplu:
De exemplu:
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();
});
});
În cazul în care beforeEach
este în interiorul unui bloc describe
, se va executa înainte de fiecare test din interiorul blocului.
Dacă aveţi nevoie doar să rulați ceva cod de configurare o singură dată, înainte de orice test, utilizaţi beforeAll
.
Dacă aveţi nevoie doar să rulați ceva cod de configurare o singură dată, înainte de orice test, utilizaţi beforeAll

describe(name, fn)
describe(name, fn)
creates a block that groups together several related tests. De exemplu, dacă aveţi un obiect myBeverage
, care se presupune a fi delicios, dar nu acru, aţi putea test acest lucru în felul următor:
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.
Puteţi, de asemenea, imbrica blocuri describe
în cazul în care aveţi o ierarhie de teste:
const binaryStringToNumber = binString => {
if (!/^[01]+$/.test(binString)) {
throw new CustomError('Not a binary number.');
}
return parseInt(binString, 2);
};
describe('binaryStringToNumber', () => {
describe('given an invalid binary string', () => {
test('composed of non-numbers throws CustomError', () => {
expect(() => binaryStringToNumber('abc')).toThrow(CustomError);
});
test('with extra whitespace throws CustomError', () => {
expect(() => binaryStringToNumber(' 100')).toThrow(CustomError);
});
});
describe('given a valid binary string', () => {
test('returns the correct number', () => {
expect(binaryStringToNumber('100')).toBe(4);
});
});
});
describe.each(table)(name, fn, timeout)
Use describe.each
if you keep duplicating the same test suites with different data. describe.each
allows you to write the test suite once and pass data in.
describe.each
is available with two APIs:
1. describe.each(table)(name, fn, timeout)
-
table
:Array
of Arrays with the arguments that are passed into thefn
for each row. If you pass in a 1D array of primitives, internally it will be mapped to a table i.e.[1, 2, 3] -> [[1], [2], [3]]
. -
name
:String
the title of the test suite.- Generate unique test titles by positionally injecting parameters with
printf
formatting:%p
- pretty-format.%s
- String.%d
- Number.%i
- Integer.%f
- Floating point value.%j
- JSON.%o
- Object.%#
- Index of the test case.%$
- Number 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 theprintf
formatting except for%%
- To inject nested object values use you can supply a keyPath i.e.
- Generate unique test titles by positionally injecting parameters with
-
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.
Example:
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
${value}
syntax.
- First row of variable name column headings separated with
name
:String
the title of the test suite, use$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
- To inject nested object values use you can supply a keyPath i.e.
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.
Example:
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)
Aveţi posibilitatea să utilizaţi describe.only
dacă doriţi să se execute un singur bloc describe:
Aveţi posibilitatea să utilizaţi describe.only
dacă doriţi să se execute un singur bloc describe:
describe.only('my beverage', () => {
test('is delicious', () => {
expect(myBeverage.delicious).toBeTruthy();
});
test('is not sour', () => {
expect(myBeverage.sour).toBeFalsy();
});
});
describe('my other beverage', () => {
// ... 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)
Aveţi posibilitatea să utilizaţi describe.skip
dacă nu doriţi să se execute un anumit bloc describe:
You can use describe.skip
if you do not want to run the tests of a particular describe
block:
describe('my beverage', () => {
test('is delicious', () => {
expect(myBeverage.delicious).toBeTruthy();
});
test('is not sour', () => {
expect(myBeverage.sour).toBeFalsy();
});
});
describe.skip('my other beverage', () => {
// ... 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);
});
test(name, fn, timeout)
Also under the alias: it(name, fn, timeout)
All you need in a test file is the test
method which runs a test. For example, let's say there's a function inchesOfRain()
that should be zero. Your whole test could be:
test('did not rain', () => {
expect(inchesOfRain()).toBe(0);
});
Primul argument este numele testului; al doilea argument este o funcţie care conţine aserțiunile pentru 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. For example, let's say fetchBeverageList()
returns a promise that is supposed to resolve to a list that has lemon
in it. Puteți testa acest lucru în felul următor:
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.
Jest va aştepta, de asemenea, și dacă pasați un argument la funcţia de test, numit de obicei 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)
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.
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.
test.concurrent('addition of 2 numbers', async () => {
expect(5 + 3).toBe(8);
});
test.concurrent('subtraction 2 numbers', async () => {
expect(5 - 3).toBe(2);
});
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 testfn
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]]

- single percent sign ('%'). This does not consume an argument.
- Generate unique test titles by positionally injecting parameters with

Example:
test.concurrent.each([
[1, 1, 2],
[1, 2, 3],
[2, 1, 3],
])('.add(%i, %i)', async (a, b, expected) => {

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.failing(name, fn, timeout)
Also under the alias: it.failing(name, fn, timeout)
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.
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.
Example:
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)
This is only available with the default jest-circus runner.
You can also run multiple tests at once by adding each
after failing
.
Example:
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)
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)
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, timeout)
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.
Optionally, you can provide a timeout
(in milliseconds) for specifying how long to wait before aborting. The default timeout is 5 seconds.
De exemplu, să presupunem că aveți aceste teste:
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)
Atunci când lucrați cu baze mari de cod, puteţi găsi, uneori, un test care este temporar stricat din diverse motive. 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.
De exemplu, să presupunem că aveți aceste teste:
test('it is raining', () => {
expect(inchesOfRain()).toBeGreaterThan(0);
});
test.skip('it is not snowing', () => {
expect(inchesOfSnow()).toBe(0);
});
Doar testul "it is raining" va rula, deoarece celălalt test este apelat cu test.skip
.
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');
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
The TypeScript examples from this page will only work as documented if you explicitly import Jest APIs:
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.
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 input 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 same type', ({a, b, expected}) => {
// all arguments are of type `number` because all inputs (a, b, expected) are of type `number`
});
If the inputs have different types, the arguments will be typed as a union of all the input types (i.e. type of the variables inside the template literal):
import {test} from '@jest/globals';
test.each`
a | b | expected
${1} | ${2} | ${'three'}
${3} | ${4} | ${'seven'}
${5} | ${6} | ${'eleven'}
`('template literal example different types', ({a, b, expected}) => {
// all arguments are of type `number | string` because some inputs (a, b) are of type `number` and some others (expected) are of type `string`
});
Otherwise, if you want each argument to have the right type, you have to explicitly provide the 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}) => {
// all arguments are typed as expected, e.g. `a: number`, `expected: string`, `extra: boolean | undefined`
});
Keep in mind the variables inside the template literal are not type checked, so you have to ensure that their types are correct.
import {test} from '@jest/globals';
test.each<{a: number; expected: string}>`
a | expected
${1} | ${'one'}
${'will not raise TS error'} | ${'two'}
${3} | ${'three'}
`('template literal with wrongly typed input', ({a, expected}) => {
// all arguments are typed as stated in the generic: `a: number`, `expected: string`
// WARNING: `a` is of type `number` but will be a string in the 2nd test case.
});
