I've got a functional component in React Native.
import { ReactElement, useEffect, useState } from "react-test-renderer/node_modules/@types/react";
import SpecialObject from "./SpecialObject";
import { getPromisedObject } from "./AccessFunctions";
export function PromiseDependencyComponent(): ReactElement {
const [val, setVal] = useState<SpecialObject>(new SpecialObject());
const promisedVal: Promise<SpecialObject> = getPromisedObject();
useEffect(() => {
setInterval(() => {
promisedVal.then( (obj) =>
setVal(obj);
);
}, 250);
}, []);
return (<Text>{val.getSomeField()}</Text>);
}
I'd like to be able to test that the promised SpecialObject
is retrieved correctly when the component is rendered. This is what I've got now:
import * as React from "react";
import renderer from "react-test-renderer";
import PromiseDependencyComponent from "../PromiseDependencyComponent";
it("PromiseDependencyComponent renders correctly", () => {
const componentRenderer = renderer.create(<PromiseDependencyComponent />);
// I've also tried using timers and componentRenderer.update() and neither worked for me.
const tree = componentRenderer.toJSON();
expect(tree).toMatchSnapshot();
});
This test executes and nothing breaks, I'm just not seeing the same thing as I'm seeing when running the app. When I run the app, I see the promised value being displayed after a 250ms delay. But my problem is that I want to see the updated/promised value in my test snapshot.
So what I'm seeing in my app is something like this:
<!-- This the updated/promised SpecialObject. -->
<Text>5</Text>
But I'm getting something like this in my test snapshot:
<!-- This just comes from a new instance of SpecialObject, which is the initialized component state. -->
<Text>0</Text>
What's the simplest/cleanest way to invoke some sort of update on my component so that I can verify that the promise is fulfilled when the component is rendered?
First of all, there is a popular testing library for handling various testing scenarios in React and it is called @testing-library/react . I highly suggest you use it for your React component tests.
As for the question you ask, there are methods in @testing-library/react
like waitFor
and await findBy...
and you can use them for your async tests. (SeeAsync Methods )
So an example would be like this:
import {render, screen} from "@testing-library/react"
import MyAsyncComponent from "./MyAsyncComponent"
describe("My Async Component", () => {
it("Updates after promise resolves", async () => {
render(<MyAsyncComponent/>)
const myAsyncResult = await screen.findByText("5");
expect(myAsyncResult).toBeInTheDocument();
})
})
