Some popular testing frameworks for React are:

  • Jest: A test runner and assertion library. It works well with React for unit testing and snapshot testing.
  • React Testing Library: A library for testing React components by interacting with the DOM like a user would.
  • Enzyme: A popular library for shallow rendering and full DOM rendering of React components (although React Testing Library is more modern).
  • To get started, you can install Jest and React Testing Library:
npm install --save-dev jest @testing-library/react


Then, write simple tests for your components using render and assertions.
