mocha-snapshots v4.2.0

Mocha Snapshots

Snapshot/regression testing for using with Mocha, specially for React+Enzyme users.

Install it

npm i mocha-snapshots --save

Use it

import { expect } from 'chai';
import { shallow } from 'enzyme';
import MyComponent from './path/to/MyComponent';

describe('<MyComponent />', () => {
  it('should match snapshot', () => {
    const wrapper = shallow(<MyComponent />)
    
    // You can match Enzyme wrappers
    expect(wrapper).to.matchSnapshot();
    
    // Strings
    expect('you can match strings').to.matchSnapshot();
    
    // Numbers
    expect(123).to.matchSnapshot();
    
    // Or any object
    expect({ a: 1, b: { c: 1 } }).to.matchSnapshot();
   
  });
});

Run your tests

Add a require argument to your test script/command

mocha --require mocha-snapshots

Disable classNames cleanup

To prevent false mismatches, mocha-snapshots sanitizes className props by default. You can disable this behavior before running your tests:

import mochaSnapshots from 'mocha-snapshots';

mochaSnapshots.setup({ sanitizeClassNames: false })

Update snapshots

Set an environment variable UPDATE and run your test script or add the flag --update when running Mocha:

UPDATE=1 mocha --require mocha-snapshots

or

mocha --require mocha-snapshots --update
