如何使用非反应代码模拟 Jest 中的按钮点击

Question

I have some snippets of Vanilla Javascript Code (with JQuery but no major front-end frameworks like React/Angular). The code looks like this

setupIconClickEvents() {
    $('#someButton').on('click', (e) => {
        callFunction(parameters);
        e.stopPropagation();
    });
}

I want to simulate the button click to test that the function was called, which I can do easily with a spy. However the function never gets hit inside. This is my current attempt

describe('setupIconClickEvents()', () => {
    beforeAll(() => {
        object.setupIconClickEvents();
        document.body.innerHTML = `
            <div>
                <button id="someButton"></div>
            </div>
        `;
    });

    describe('rankIcon', () => {
        it('should stop event propagation', () => {
            jest.spyOn(object, 'callFunction');
            $('#someButton').trigger('click');
            expect(object.callFunction).toHaveBeenCalled();
        });
    });
});

How can I get inside the snippet of code when I click my button?

Answer 1

1. Are you sure that the code block where the trigger call is placed gets executed at all(trace it adding console.log('hit') ; before the trigger line)?

2. Does the selector work(dump its result- console.log($('#someButton')); ?- given that you generate the html dynamically it is a common mistake to mix the order of operations and try to select element that is not on the page.

3. Is there a click event on the button( check the browser inspector events tab )?

我看到了另一个答案，你可以测试函数本身，来自 html 的一部分，在 selenium e2e 测试中，你进行这种测试不是模拟点击，而是让 selenium 驱动器真正点击按钮。
