SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Writing and running tests for JavaScript/TypeScript projects can be tedious, error-prone, and hard to standardize across teams. This skill streamlines test setup, execution, and reporting using popular frameworks like Vitest and Jest, with guidance for mocks, spies, and component tests.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Testing frameworks: Quick start with Vitest or Jest configuration for JS/TS projects.
  • Component testing: Includes examples for SvelteKit, React, and Vue component tests.
  • Mocking and utilities: Standardized mocks, spies, and test helpers to improve reliability and maintainability.

Quick Start

Install Vitest for Vite-based projects, then write tests following the AAA pattern and run tests with the configured command.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up JavaScript testing with Vitest or Jest for a TypeScript project?

To set up JavaScript testing with Vitest or Jest for TypeScript, you configure the test runner with TypeScript support and use utility test helpers. This skill automates that configuration for Vite-based and standard JS projects.

Can I use this approach for component testing in SvelteKit, React, and Vue?

Yes, component testing in SvelteKit, React, and Vue is fully supported. The workflow provides standardized examples and test helpers to validate components using mocks, spies, and coverage reporting.

What is the best way to standardize mocks and spies across a JavaScript test suite?

The best way to standardize mocks and spies is to use shared utility test helpers. This approach applies consistent mocking patterns to improve reliability and maintainability across Vitest or Jest environments.

Does this testing workflow require Vite to run Vitest?

Vitest is designed for Vite-based projects, so installing it in a Vite environment is the recommended quick start path. However, Jest is also supported as an alternative for standard JavaScript and TypeScript testing workflows.

How do I generate coverage reports when testing TypeScript code?

Generating coverage reports when testing TypeScript code involves enabling the coverage reporting feature in your Vitest or Jest configuration. This workflow supports coverage reporting to help track and validate code execution across your tests.

Why are my component tests failing to apply mocks correctly?

Component tests may fail to apply mocks correctly if the test configuration lacks proper TypeScript support or utility test helpers. Standardizing your mocks and spies through the configured test environment ensures reliable execution.
