Jest Node.js Example Showcase

Welcome to the Jest Node.js Example Showcase! This repository serves as a demonstration of how to set up and use Jest for testing Node.js applications. Jest is a delightful JavaScript testing framework that focuses on simplicity and ease of use.

This repository provides a simple example of using Jest to test a Node.js application. It includes basic configurations and examples to help you kickstart your testing journey with Jest. Whether you are new to Jest or looking for a reference, this showcase is designed to guide you through the process.

Getting Started

To get started with this example showcase, follow these steps:

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/BaseMax/jest-nodejs-example-showcase.git

Navigate to the project directory:

cd jest-nodejs-example-showcase

Install dependencies:

npm install

Project Structure

The project structure is designed to be simple and easy to understand. Here's a brief overview:

• __tests__/: Houses the Jest test files corresponding to the source code.
• package.json: Includes project dependencies and scripts for running tests.
• jest.config.js: Jest configuration file with settings for test execution.

Feel free to modify the project structure based on your preferences and project requirements.

Running Tests

Run the following command to execute the Jest tests:

npm test
npm run watchtest

This will trigger Jest to run all the tests in the __tests__/ directory. You can also use additional Jest CLI options to customize the test execution.

Configuration

The Jest configuration can be defined in the jest.config.js file. This file includes settings such as test environment, test match patterns, and other configuration options. Feel free to customize this file according to your project's needs.
