Problem
This is my first front-end testing experience. In this project, I'm using Jest snapshot testing and got an error
I go through Jest documentation, I found the "Manual mocks" section, but I have not any idea about how to do that yet.
TypeError: window.matchMedia is not a function inside my component.I go through Jest documentation, I found the "Manual mocks" section, but I have not any idea about how to do that yet.
Solution
The Jest documentation now has an "official" workaround:
Mocking methods which are not implemented in JSDOM
Object.defineProperty(window, 'matchMedia', {
writable: true,
value: jest.fn().mockImplementation(query => ({
matches: false,
media: query,
onchange: null,
addListener: jest.fn(), // Deprecated
removeListener: jest.fn(), // Deprecated
addEventListener: jest.fn(),
removeEventListener: jest.fn(),
dispatchEvent: jest.fn(),
})),
});
