jest-mock-extended

Type safe mocking extensions for Jest 🃏

Features

Provides complete Typescript type safety for interfaces, argument types and return types
Ability to mock any interface or object
calledWith() extension to provide argument specific expectations, which works for objects and functions.
Extensive Matcher API compatible with Jasmine matchers
Supports mocking deep objects / class instances.
Familiar Jest like API

Installation

npm install jest-mock-extended --save-dev

yarn add jest-mock-extended --dev

Example

import { mock } from 'jest-mock-extended';

interface PartyProvider {
   getPartyType: () => string;
   getSongs: (type: string) => string[]
   start: (type: string) => void;
}

describe('Party Tests', () => {
   test('Mock out an interface', () => {
       const mock = mock<PartyProvider>();
       mock.start('disco party');
       
       expect(mock.start).toHaveBeenCalledWith('disco party');
   });
   
   
   test('mock out a return type', () => {
       const mock = mock<PartyProvider>();
       mock.getPartyType.mockReturnValue('west coast party');
       
       expect(mock.getPartyType()).toBe('west coast party');
   });
});

Assigning Mocks with a Type

If you wish to assign a mock to a variable that requires a type in your test, then you should use the MockProxy<> type given that this will provide the apis for calledWith() and other built-in jest types for providing test functionality.

import { MockProxy, mock } from 'jest-mock-extended';

describe('test', () => {
    let myMock: MockProxy<MyInterface>;

    beforeEach(() => {
        myMock = mock<MyInterface>();
    })

    test(() => {
         myMock.calledWith(1).mockReturnValue(2);
         ...
    })
});

calledWith() Extension

jest-mock-extended allows for invocation matching expectations. Types of arguments, even when using matchers are type checked.

const provider = mock<PartyProvider>();
provider.getSongs.calledWith('disco party').mockReturnValue(['Dance the night away', 'Stayin Alive']);
expect(provider.getSongs('disco party')).toEqual(['Dance the night away', 'Stayin Alive']);

// Matchers
provider.getSongs.calledWith(any()).mockReturnValue(['Saw her standing there']);
provider.getSongs.calledWith(anyString()).mockReturnValue(['Saw her standing there']);

You can also use mockFn() to create a jest.fn() with the calledWith extension:

 type MyFn = (x: number, y: number) => Promise<string>;
 const fn = mockFn<MyFn>();
 fn.calledWith(1, 2).mockReturnValue('str');

Clearing / Resetting Mocks

jest-mock-extended exposes a mockClear and mockReset for resetting or clearing mocks with the same functionality as jest.fn().

import { mock, mockClear, mockReset } from 'jest-mock-extended';

describe('test', () => {
   const mock: UserService = mock<UserService>();
   
   beforeEach(() => {
      mockReset(mock); // or mockClear(mock)
   });
   ...
})

Deep mocks

If your class has objects returns from methods that you would also like to mock, you can use mockDeep in replacement for mock.

import { mockDeep } from 'jest-mock-extended';

const mockObj = mockDeep<Test1>();
mockObj.deepProp.getNumber.calledWith(1).mockReturnValue(4);
expect(mockObj.deepProp.getNumber(1)).toBe(4);

Available Matchers

Matcher	Description
any()	Matches any arg of any type.
anyBoolean()	Matches any boolean (true or false)
anyString()	Matches any string including empty string
anyNumber()	Matches any number that is not NaN
anyFunction()	Matches any function
anyObject()	Matches any object (typeof m === 'object') and is not null
anyArray()	Matches any array
anyMap()	Matches any Map
anySet()	Matches any Set
isA(class)	e.g isA(DiscoPartyProvider)
includes('value')	Checks if value is in the argument array
containsKey('key')	Checks if the key exists in the object
containsValue('value')	Checks if the value exists in an object
has('value')	checks if the value exists in a Set
notNull()	value !== null
notUndefined()	value !== undefined
notEmpty()	value !== undefined && value !== null && value !== ''

Writing a Custom Matcher

Custom matchers can be written using a MatcherCreator

import { MatcherCreator, Matcher } from 'jest-mock-extended';

// expectedValue is optional
export const myMatcher: MatcherCreator<MyType> = (expectedValue) => new Matcher((actualValue) => {
    return (expectedValue === actualValue && actualValue.isSpecial);
});

By default, the expected value and actual value are the same type. In the case where you need to type the expected value differently than the actual value, you can use the optional 2 generic parameter:

import { MatcherCreator, Matcher } from 'jest-mock-extended';

// expectedValue is optional
export const myMatcher: MatcherCreator<string[], string> = (expectedValue) => new Matcher((actualValue) => {
    return (actualValue.includes(expectedValue));
});
