The Problem
You want to write tests for your Preact components so that they avoid including implementation details, and are maintainable in the long run.
The Solution
The Preact Testing Library is a very lightweight solution for testing Preact components. It provides light utility functions on top of preact/test-utils, in a way that encourages better testing practices. Its primary guiding principle is:
The more your tests resemble the way your software is used, the more confidence they can give you.
Installation
This module is distributed via npm which is bundled with node and should be installed
as one of your project's devDependencies:
npm install --save-dev @testing-library/preact
This library has peerDependencies listings for preact >= 10.
@testing-library/jest-dom so you can use
