I'm trying to test a react component and use expect(elm).not.toBeVisible()
without success.
Update 3
I have cut down the code into this simpler form:
// ./TestItem.js
import React from 'react'
import './TestItem.css'
export default ({ hide }) => {
return <div className={hide ? 'shouldHide' : ''}>Text</div>
}
// ./__tests__/TestItem.test.js
import React from 'react'
import { render } from 'react-testing-library'
import TestItem from '../TestItem'
import 'jest-dom/extend-expect'
import 'react-testing-library/cleanup-after-each'
test.only('TestItem should render correctly', async () => {
const { getByText, debug } = render(<TestItem hide={true} />)
const itemNode = getByText('Text')
debug()
expect(itemNode).not.toBeVisible()
})
// ./TestItem.css
.shouldHide {
display: none;
}
Test result:
TestItem should render correctly
expect(element).not.toBeVisible()
Received element is visible:
<div class="shouldHide" />
7 | const itemNode = getByText('Text')
8 | debug()
> 9 | expect(itemNode).not.toBeVisible()
| ^
10 | })
11 |
debug()
log:
console.log node_modules/react-testing-library/dist/index.js:58
<body>
<div>
<div
class="shouldHide"
>
Text
</div>
</div>
</body>
Update 2:
Okay it's getting pretty weird because I got the test to pass on codesanbox but still find no luck on my local machine.
My original question:
I use React, semantic-ui-react and react-testing-library.
Here is the code:
// ComboItem.test.js
import React from 'react'
import ComboItem from '../ComboItem'
import { render } from 'react-testing-library'
import comboXoi from '../images/combo-xoi.jpg'
import 'path/to/semantic/semantic.min.css'
describe('ComboItem', () => {
test('should render', async () => {
const { getByText, debug } = render(
<ComboItem image={comboXoi} outOfStock={false} />
)
const outOfStockNotice = getByText('Out of stock')
debug()
expect(outOfStockNotice).not.toBeVisible()
})
})
// ComboItem.js
import React from 'react'
import { Card, Image } from 'semantic-ui-react'
export default ({ image, outOfStock = false }) => {
return (
<Card>
<Image
src={image}
dimmer={{
active: outOfStock,
inverted: true,
'data-testid': 'combo-item-dimmer',
content: (
<span style={{ marginTop: 'auto', color: 'black' }}>
Out of stock
</span>
),
}}
/>
</Card>
)
}
What i get is the result here:
ComboItem › should render
expect(element).not.toBeVisible()
Received element is visible:
<span style="margin-top: auto; color: black;" />
at Object.test (src/app/screens/App/screens/SaleEntries/screens/CreateSaleEntry/screens/StickyRiceComboSelect/__tests__/ComboItem.test.js:14:34)
at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:68:7)
I have tried to see the component render result on the browser and the node outOfStockNotice
in the test code is actually hidden because its parent, which is a div with class dimmer
has style display: none
.
According to jest-dom
doc (which is used by testing-react-library
:
toBeVisible
An element is visible if all the following conditions are met:
- it does not have its css property display set to none
- it does not have its css property visibility set to either hidden or collapse
- it does not have its css property opacity set to 0
- its parent element is also visible (and so on up to the top of the DOM tree)
Please help. I really don't know what could go wrong here.
Update:
I include the result of debug()
here:
console.log node_modules/react-testing-library/dist/index.js:58
<body>
<div>
<div
class="ui card"
>
<div
class="ui image"
>
<div
class="ui inverted dimmer"
data-testid="combo-item-dimmer"
>
<div
class="content"
>
<span
style="margin-top: auto; color: black;"
>
Out of stock
</span>
</div>
</div>
<img
src="combo-xoi.jpg"
/>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
Here is the answer according to the author of react-testing-library
himself:
Probably a JSDOM limitation (in codesandbox it runs in the real browser). Actually, the problem is that the css isn't actually loaded into the document in JSDOM. If it were, then that would work. If you can come up with a custom jest transform that could insert the css file into the document during tests, then you'd be set.
So this would work if you were using CSS-in-JS.
So basically the import './TestItem.css'
part in the test will not works because JSDOM doesn't load it, therefore jest-dom
could not understand the class shouldHide
means display: none
.
Update:
According to this Stack Overflow thread, you can insert css into jsdom:
import React from 'react'
import { render } from 'react-testing-library'
import TestItem from '../TestItem'
import fs from 'fs'
import path from 'path'
test.only('TestItem should render correctly', async () => {
const cssFile = fs.readFileSync(
path.resolve(__dirname, '../TestItem.css'),
'utf8'
)
const { container, getByText, debug } = render(<TestItem hide={true} />)
const style = document.createElement('style')
style.type = 'text/css'
style.innerHTML = cssFile
container.append(style)
const itemNode = getByText('Text')
debug()
expect(itemNode).not.toBeVisible()
})
And then the test should pass.
