Jest Parameterised Testing

---

A parameterised testing library for Jest inspired by mocha-each.

jest-each allows you to provide multiple arguments to your test/describe which results in the test/suite being run once per row of parameters.

Features

• .test to runs multiple tests with parameterised data
  • Also under the alias: .it
• .test.only to only run the parameterised tests
  • Also under the aliases: .it.only or .fit
• .test.skip to skip the parameterised tests
  • Also under the aliases: .it.skip or .xit or .xtest
• .test.concurrent
  • Also under the alias: .it.concurrent
• .test.concurrent.only
  • Also under the alias: .it.concurrent.only
• .test.concurrent.skip
  • Also under the alias: .it.concurrent.skip
• .describe to runs test suites with parameterised data
• .describe.only to only run the parameterised suite of tests
  • Also under the aliases: .fdescribe
• .describe.skip to skip the parameterised suite of tests
  • Also under the aliases: .xdescribe
• Asynchronous tests with done
• Unique test titles 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.
• 🖖 Spock like data tables with Tagged Template Literals

Demo

Tests without jest-each

Tests can be re-written with jest-each to:

.test

.test with Tagged Template Literals

.describe

Installation

npm i --save-dev jest-each

yarn add -D jest-each

Importing

jest-each is a default export so it can be imported with whatever name you like.

// es6
import each from 'jest-each';

// es5
const each = require('jest-each').default;

Array of rows

API

each([parameters]).test(name, testFn)

each:

• parameters: Array of Arrays with the arguments that are passed into the testFn for each row
  • Note 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]]

.test:

• name: String the title of the test.
  • 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.
• testFn: Function the test logic, this is the function that will receive the parameters of each row as function arguments

each([parameters]).describe(name, suiteFn)

each:

• parameters: Array of Arrays with the arguments that are passed into the suiteFn for each row
  • Note 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]]

.describe:

• name: String the title of the describe
  • 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.
• suiteFn: Function the suite of test/its to be ran, this is the function that will receive the parameters in each row as function arguments

Tagged Template Literal of rows

API

each[tagged template].test(name, suiteFn)

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

each takes a tagged template string with:

• First row of variable name column headings separated with |
• One or more subsequent rows of data supplied as template literal expressions using ${value} syntax.

.test:

• name: String the title of the test, use $variable in the name string to inject test values 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
• testFn: Function the test logic, this is the function that will receive the parameters of each row as function arguments

each`
  a    | b    | expected
