Which testing frameworks does this skill support?

This skill provides comprehensive configurations and implementation patterns specifically for Jest and Vitest, the two most popular testing frameworks for JavaScript and TypeScript.

Does this skill help with mocking external API calls?

Yes, it includes specific patterns for mocking global fetch, module-level mocking with Vitest, and using dependency injection to isolate services from external network calls.

Can I use this for both Node.js and frontend projects?

Absolutely. It contains configurations for Node.js environments as well as patterns compatible with Testing Library for React, Vue, and other frontend frameworks.

How does this skill assist with TDD?

It provides ready-to-use templates for common testing scenarios, allowing you to quickly write failing tests for functions and classes before implementing the logic.

Security & Testing

Implements comprehensive testing strategies for JavaScript and TypeScript applications using modern frameworks like Jest and Vitest.

About

This skill provides a structured framework for establishing robust testing environments in JavaScript and TypeScript projects. It guides developers through the entire testing lifecycle, from initial infrastructure setup to implementing complex mocking patterns for isolated unit tests. By leveraging industry-standard tools like Jest and Vitest, it facilitates the creation of maintainable test suites for pure functions, classes, and asynchronous services, ensuring high code quality and reliable deployments through test-driven development (TDD) and comprehensive coverage reporting.
