Writing Unit tests

A11y Tests

To ensure Next components maintain a standard of a11y we run axe-core a11y tests. We have created a suite of utility functions to help and the below examples should cover the majority of testing situations. The utility functions are well documented in test/a11y/validate.js and test/a11y/checks.js.

Basics

Template

import React from 'react';
import Enzyme from 'enzyme';
import Adapter from 'enzyme-adapter-react-16';
import __Component__ from '../../src/__component__/index'; // <----- Component Import
import '../../src/__component__/style'; // <---- Import styles (important for a11y)
import { unmount, testReact } from '../util/a11y/validate'; // <---- a11y helpers

Enzyme.configure({ adapter: new Adapter() });

/* eslint-disable no-undef, react/jsx-filename-extension */
describe('__Component__ A11y', () => {

    let wrapper; // <---- keep a reference to the wrapper for unmounting

    afterEach(() => {
        if (wrapper) {
            wrapper.unmount(); // <---- unmount the react element if it still exists
            wrapper = null;
        }
        unmount(); // <---- call the a11y util unmounting to clean up the DOM
    });

    it('should ...', async () => { ... });

});

Styles

In addition to the component, you must import the styles so axe-core can give accurate tests for color contrast and CSS media query tests.

Mounting and Unmounting

axe-core testing relies on rendered HTML in the DOM. This means there must be a mounting directly to the DOM and an unmounting when the test is over. To make that easier you can use mountReact() to mount the React element with the test, and then call unmount() inside afterEach to clean up.

Examples

Pure Component

For simple components with no behavior (e.g. Paragraph)

it('should not have any violations', async () => { // <---- tests are promise based
    wrapper = await testReact( // <---- `restReact` calls the test functions and returns the a reference to the React element for unmounting
        <__Component__> </__Component__>
    );
    return wrapper;
});

Overlays, Gateways, and Content Rendered outside the parent

Its common to have components render content outside of the parent, mainly through use with the Overlay component. Special care needs to be taken for testing, both to test everything and to properly clean up. For specific examples see the Balloon and Dialog components.

import {
    test,
    testReact,
    unmount,
    createContainer,
} from '../util/a11y/validate';

const portalContainerId = 'a11y-portal-id';
let portalContainer;

/* eslint-disable no-undef, react/jsx-filename-extension */
describe('A11y', () => {
    let wrapper;

    afterEach(() => {
        if (wrapper) {
            wrapper.unmount();
            wrapper = null;
        }
        if (portalContainer) {
            portalContainer.remove(); //<---- must remove the portal container as it is mounted directly to the document body
        }

        unmount();
    });

    it('should not have any violations', async function() {
        portalContainer = createContainer(portalContainerId); // <---- Create and mount the node to be used as the mounting point for the portal
        wrapper = await testReact( // <---- 2 tests, this mounts and tests the outer node
            <COMPONENT visible container={portalContainer}> // <---- pass the container node
                <div>Hello World</div>
            </COMPONENT>
        );
        return test(portalContainer);
    });
});
