coming from rspec, i am having trouble understanding mocking with jest. the approach i am trying for, is to automock a class's constructor and all of it's functions, and then unmock them one by one to test only that one function. the only documentation i can find on it, is with using 2 classes, mocking 1 class, and then testing that those functions are called from the other unmocked class.
below is a basic, contrived idea of what i am trying to do. can someone direct me to the jest-way of doing this?
foo.js
class Foo
constructor: ->
this.bar()
this.baz()
bar: ->
return 'bar'
baz: ->
return 'baz'
foo_test.js
// require the class
Foo = require('foo')
// mock entire Foo class methods
jest.mock('foo')
// unmock just the bar method
jest.unmock(Foo::bar)
// or by
Foo::bar.mockRestore()
// and should now be able to call
foo = new Foo
foo.bar() // 'bar'
foo.baz() // undefined (still mocked)
// i even tried unmocking the instance
foo = new Foo
jest.unmock(foo.bar)
foo.bar.mockRestore()
mockFn.mockRestore()
worked for me with [email protected]
:
// Create a spy with a mock
const consoleInfoSpy = jest.spyOn(console, 'info').mockImplementation(() => {})
// Run test or whatever code which uses console.info
console.info('This bypasses the real console.info')
// Restore original console.info
consoleInfoSpy.mockRestore()
