What Hacker News says
6 sourcesGood morning HN!
Today we are launching a new tool called Spearmint!
In short, this tool generates executable JavaScript test-code based on custom data input from the developer.
We've added new tools to test accessibility and added the ability to run generated tests within the application with a new
fully functional in-app terminal!
Download our app:

Check out the code (and give us a STAR!):

Thank you so much for having a look and we hope you find Spearmint useful.

Spearmint provides a simple way to write tests that give you confidence your React application will work in the way your users interact with it.
Using Spearmint, developers can easily generate React tests by using our user-friendly GUI.
It dynamically converts user inputs into executable Jest test code by using DOM query selectors provided by the react-testing-library. We chose react-testing-library over Enzyme because it guides developers to focus on testing user behavior rather than testing implementation details. By leveraging react-testing-library, our application provides our users with more stable tests that do not break when refactoring or gives false positives due to shallow-rendering.

“The more your tests resemble the way your software is used, the more confidence they can give you”
Writing tests is like eating your veggies: it is something everyone knows that they should do, but not everyone does. Spearmint provides a simple way to write tests that give you confidence your React application will work in the way your users interact with it.
