Introduction to Testing
Testing ensures code reliability in React Native. We'll explore types, tools, and strategies for effective testing, enhancing app stability and user satisfaction.
Testing Types Overview
React Native testing includes unit, integration, and end-to-end tests. Unit tests cover small functions, while integration and E2E tests ensure component and full app coherence, respectively.
Unit Testing Basics
Jest is a preferred framework for unit tests in React Native. It isolates components, mocking dependencies, and ensuring individual functionality without rendering graphical elements.
Integration Testing Insight
React Native Testing Library offers user-centric integration tests. It bridges unit and E2E tests by simulating user interactions and verifying combined component behaviors.
End-to-End Testing
Detox automates E2E testing for React Native, simulating a real user environment. It interacts with both iOS and Android apps, verifying cross-platform functionality.
Continuous Integration
Integrate tests within CI/CD pipelines using services like Travis CI or GitHub Actions. Automated testing workflows ensure code integrity before deployment.
Advanced Mocking Techniques
Advanced mocking involves abstracting native modules, API calls, and timers for robust testing. It helps to focus on JavaScript logic, bypassing native complexities.
