Snapshotter

Snapshot testing is a compelling feature but sometimes it isn't possible to port large projects to tools like Jest. Snapshotter is designed to work within an existing Tape/Enzyme setup while providing some basic snapshot functionality.

Getting Started

Install

Add the package:

npm install --save-dev snapshotter

Create a snapshots folder (e.g. mkdir test/snapshots) and add it to package.json. If you do not specify a folder, Snapshotter will default to test/snapshots.

"snapshotter": {
  "snapshotPath": "./test/snapshots"
}

Usage

import compareToSnapshot from 'snapshotter'
import React from 'react'
import { shallow } from 'enzyme'
import test from 'tape'

const TestClass = () => (
  <div>
    <p>Hello World</p>
  </div>
)

test('TestClass renders', (assert) => {
  const shallowWrapper = shallow(<TestClass />)
  compareToSnapshot(assert, shallowWrapper, 'TestClass')
  assert.end()
})

Update snapshots

To update snapshots, set the UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS to a non-falsy value.

UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=1 npm run test
