await-async-task v2.0.2

await-async-task

Waits for async operations or timers to be completed. Useful for testing async operations and timers especially in React.js world. Helps to test Class components and hooks based components.

Installation

npm install await-async-task --save-dev
OR
yarn add await-async-task -D

Usage

• React component with async call in componentDidMount

import React from 'react';
import { shallow } from 'enzyme';
import axios from "axios";
import MockAdapter from 'axios-mock-adapter';
import { asyncTasks } from 'await-async-task';

const axiosMock = new MockAdapter(axios);

export class MyComponent extends React.Component {
    constructor (props) {
        super(props);

        this.state = {
            status: "Loading"
        };
    }

    async componentDidMount() {
        try {
            await axios.get("/my/path");
            this.setState({status: "Success"})
        } catch (e) {
            this.setState({status: "Error"})
        }
    }

    render() {
        return this.state.status;
    }
}

test("waits for component fetch success", async () => {
    axiosMock.onGet("/my/path").replyOnce(200);
    const wrapper = shallow(<MyComponent/>);

    expect(wrapper.text()).toEqual("Loading");
    await asyncTasks();

    expect(wrapper.text()).toEqual("Success");
});

• React component with debounced action

import React from 'react';
import { shallow } from 'enzyme';
import debounce from "lodash.debounce"
import { asyncTasks } from 'await-async-task';

const debounceTime = 500;

export class MyComponent extends React.Component {
    constructor (props) {
        super(props);

        this.state = {
            status: "Loading"
        };
    }

    debounceMe = debounce(async () => {
        this.setState({status: "Debounced"})
    }, debounceTime);

    render() {
        return (
            <div>
                <button onClick={this.debounceMe}>Fetch</button>
                <span>{this.state.status}</span>
            </div>
        )
    }
}

test("waits for component debounced action", async () => {
    const wrapper = shallow(<MyComponent/>);

    expect(wrapper.find('span').text()).toEqual("Loading");

    wrapper.find('button').simulate('click');

    expect(wrapper.find('span').text()).toEqual("Loading");

    await asyncTasks(debounceTime);

    expect(wrapper.find('span').text()).toEqual("Debounced");
});

• React component with useEffect hook and async call

import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
import { mount } from 'enzyme';
import axios from "axios";
import MockAdapter from 'axios-mock-adapter';
import { asyncTasks } from 'await-async-task';

const axiosMock = new MockAdapter(axios);

const MyComponent = () => {
    const [status, setStatus] = useState("Loading");

    useEffect(() => {
        axios.get("/my/path")
            .then(() => setStatus("Success"))
            .catch(() => setStatus("Error"));
    });

    return <span>{status}</span>;
};

test("waits for component fetch", async () => {
    axiosMock.onGet("/my/path").replyOnce(200);
    const wrapper = mount(<MyComponent/>);

    expect(wrapper.find('span').text()).toEqual("Loading");

    await asyncTasks();
    wrapper.update();

    expect(wrapper.find('span').text()).toEqual("Success");
});
