# Testing Patterns and Utilities
## Testing Philosophy
**Test-Driven Development (TDD):**
- Write failing test FIRST
- Implement minimal code to pass
- Refactor after green
- Never write production code without a failing test
**Behavior-Driven Testing:**
- Test behavior, not implementation
- Focus on public APIs and business requirements
- Avoid testing implementation details
- Use descriptive test names that describe behavior
**Factory Pattern:**
- Create `getMockX(overrides?: Partial<X>)` functions
- Provide sensible defaults
- Allow overriding specific properties
- Keep tests DRY and maintainable
## Test Utilities
### Custom Render Function
Create a custom render that wraps components with required providers:
```typescript
// src/utils/testUtils.tsx
import { render } from '@testing-library/react-native';
import { ThemeProvider } from './theme';
export const renderWithTheme = (ui: React.ReactElement) => {
return render(
<ThemeProvider>{ui}</ThemeProvider>
);
};
```
**Usage:**
```typescript
import { renderWithTheme } from 'utils/testUtils';
import { screen } from '@testing-library/react-native';
it('should render component', () => {
renderWithTheme(<MyComponent />);
expect(screen.getByText('Hello')).toBeTruthy();
});
```
## Factory Pattern
### Component Props Factory
```typescript
import { ComponentProps } from 'react';
const getMockMyComponentProps = (
overrides?: Partial<ComponentProps<typeof MyComponent>>
) => {
return {
title: 'Default Title',
count: 0,
onPress: jest.fn(),
isLoading: false,
...overrides,
};
};
// Usage in tests
it('should render with custom title', () => {
const props = getMockMyComponentProps({ title: 'Custom Title' });
renderWithTheme(<MyComponent {...props} />);
expect(screen.getByText('Custom Title')).toBeTruthy();
});
```
### Data Factory
```typescript
interface User {
id: string;
name: string;
email: string;
role: 'admin' | 'user';
}
const getMockUser = (overrides?: Partial<User>): User => {
return {
id: '123',
name: 'John Doe',
email: 'john@example.com',
role: 'user',
...overrides,
};
};
// Usage
it('should display admin badge for admin users', () => {
const user = getMockUser({ role: 'admin' });
renderWithTheme(<UserCard user={user} />);
expect(screen.getByText('Admin')).toBeTruthy();
});
```
## Mocking Patterns
### Mocking Modules
```typescript
// Mock entire module
jest.mock('utils/analytics');
// Mock with factory function
jest.mock('utils/analytics', () => ({
Analytics: {
logEvent: jest.fn(),
},
}));
// Access mock in test
const mockLogEvent = jest.requireMock('utils/analytics').Analytics.logEvent;
```
### Mocking GraphQL Hooks
```typescript
jest.mock('./GetItems.generated', () => ({
useGetItemsQuery: jest.fn(),
}));
const mockUseGetItemsQuery = jest.requireMock(
'./GetItems.generated'
).useGetItemsQuery as jest.Mock;
// In test
mockUseGetItemsQuery.mockReturnValue({
data: { items: [] },
loading: false,
error: undefined,
});
```
## Test Structure
```typescript
describe('ComponentName', () => {
beforeEach(() => {
jest.clearAllMocks();
});
describe('Rendering', () => {
it('should render component with default props', () => {});
it('should render loading state when loading', () => {});
});
describe('User interactions', () => {
it('should call onPress when button is clicked', async () => {});
});
describe('Edge cases', () => {
it('should handle empty data gracefully', () => {});
});
});
```
## Query Patterns
```typescript
// Element must exist
expect(screen.getByText('Hello')).toBeTruthy();
// Element should not exist
expect(screen.queryByText('Goodbye')).toBeNull();
// Element appears asynchronously
await waitFor(() => {
expect(screen.findByText('Loaded')).toBeTruthy();
});
```
## User Interaction Patterns
```typescript
import { fireEvent, screen } from '@testing-library/react-native';
it('should submit form on button click', async () => {
const onSubmit = jest.fn();
renderWithTheme(<LoginForm onSubmit={onSubmit} />);
fireEvent.changeText(screen.getByLabelText('Email'), 'user@example.com');
fireEvent.changeText(screen.getByLabelText('Password'), 'password123');
fireEvent.press(screen.getByTestId('login-button'));
await waitFor(() => {
expect(onSubmit).toHaveBeenCalled();
});
});
```
## Anti-Patterns to Avoid
### Testing Mock Behavior Instead of Real Behavior
```typescript
// Bad - testing the mock
expect(mockFetchData).toHaveBeenCalled();
// Good - testing actual behavior
expect(screen.getByText('John Doe')).toBeTruthy();
```
### Not Using Factories
```typescript
// Bad - duplicated, inconsistent test data
it('test 1', () => {
const user = { id: '1', name: 'John', email: 'john@test.com', role: 'user' };
});
it('test 2', () => {
const user = { id: '2', name: 'Jane', email: 'jane@test.com' }; // Missing role!
});
// Good - reusable factory
const user = getMockUser({ name: 'Custom Name' });
```
## Best Practices
1. **Always use factory functions** for props and data
2. **Test behavior, not implementation**
3. **Use descriptive test names**
4. **Organize with describe blocks**
5. **Clear mocks between tests**
6. **Keep tests focused** - one behavior per test
## Running Tests
```bash
# Run all tests
npm test
# Run with coverage
npm run test:coverage
# Run specific file
npm test ComponentName.test.tsx
```
## Integration with Other Skills
- **react-ui-patterns**: Test all UI states (loading, error, empty, success)
- **systematic-debugging**: Write test that reproduces bug before fixing
## When to Use
