Writing Tests

Unit Test Example

import { describe, it, expect, vi } from 'vitest';
import { screen } from '@testing-library/react';
import HomePage from '../../../pages/HomePage';
import { renderWithProviders, createWebSocketMock } from '../../utils/testUtils';

describe('HomePage', () => {
  it('should display blockchain statistics', async () => {
    // Setup WebSocket mock
    const { MockWebSocket, instances } = createWebSocketMock();
    global.WebSocket = MockWebSocket;
    
    // Render component
    renderWithProviders(<HomePage />);
    
    // Send mock data
    instances[0].receiveMessage({
      type: 'homepage',
      data: { blocks: { height: 12345678 } }
    });
    
    // Assert
    await waitFor(() => {
      expect(screen.getByText('12,345,678')).toBeInTheDocument();
    });
  });
});

Integration Test Example

describe('Page Navigation', () => {
  it('should maintain WebSocket connections across navigation', async () => {
    renderWithProviders(<App />);
    
    // Navigate to different page
    fireEvent.click(screen.getByText('Nodes'));
    
    // Verify new WebSocket connection
    expect(webSocketInstances.length).toBe(2);
    expect(webSocketInstances[0].readyState).toBe(WebSocket.CLOSED);
    expect(webSocketInstances[1].readyState).toBe(WebSocket.OPEN);
  });
});

E2E Test Example

import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';

test('should navigate between pages', async ({ page }) => {
  await page.goto('/');
  
  // Click navigation link
  await page.click('text=Nodes');
  
  // Verify navigation
  await expect(page.locator('h1')).toContainText('DigiByte Network Nodes');
  await expect(page.url()).toContain('/nodes');
});

Testing Best Practices

1. Test Organization

Group related tests using describe blocks
Use descriptive test names that explain what is being tested
Follow the AAA pattern: Arrange, Act, Assert

2. Mocking

Mock external dependencies (WebSocket, APIs, timers)
Use MSW for consistent API mocking
Create reusable mock utilities

3. Assertions

Test user-visible behavior, not implementation details
Use semantic queries (getByRole, getByLabelText)
Wait for async operations with waitFor

4. Performance

Run tests in parallel when possible
Use test.only sparingly during development
Clean up after tests (close connections, clear timers)

5. Accessibility

Test keyboard navigation
Verify ARIA attributes
Check color contrast and focus indicators

Debugging Tests

Vitest Debugging

# Run in debug mode
node --inspect-brk ./node_modules/.bin/vitest

# Use console.log in tests
console.log(screen.debug());

# Take DOM snapshots
expect(container).toMatchSnapshot();

Playwright Debugging

# Debug mode with inspector
npx playwright test --debug

# Headed mode (see browser)
npx playwright test --headed

# Slow motion
npx playwright test --headed --slow-mo=1000

# Save trace on failure
npx playwright test --trace on

🚀 Advanced Testing Features

Real-time WebSocket Testing

// Advanced WebSocket mocking with realistic blockchain data
import { createWebSocketMock, generateBlockchainData } from '@tests/utils/testUtils';

describe('Real-time Features', () => {
  it('should handle live blockchain updates', async () => {
    const { MockWebSocket, instances } = createWebSocketMock();
    global.WebSocket = MockWebSocket;
    
    renderWithProviders(<HomePage />);
    
    // Simulate real-time block arrival
    instances[0].receiveMessage({
      type: 'newBlock',
      data: generateBlockchainData().latestBlock
    });
    
    await waitFor(() => {
      expect(screen.getByText(/Block Height: \d+/)).toBeInTheDocument();
    });
  });
});

Chart & Visualization Testing

// D3.js and Chart.js testing with canvas mocking
describe('Chart Rendering', () => {
  beforeEach(() => {
    // Comprehensive canvas mocking
    setupCanvasMocks();
  });

  it('should render D3.js geographic visualization', async () => {
    renderWithProviders(<NodesPage />);
    
    // Wait for map rendering with realistic timeout
    await waitFor(() => {
      expect(document.querySelector('svg.world-map')).toBeInTheDocument();
      expect(document.querySelectorAll('circle.node')).toHaveLength.greaterThan(0);
    }, { timeout: 8000 });
  });
});

Cross-browser Compatibility Testing

// Browser-specific test utilities
import { detectBrowser, getBrowserSpecificTimeout } from '@tests/utils/browserUtils';

test('cross-browser chart rendering', async ({ page, browserName }) => {
  const timeout = getBrowserSpecificTimeout(browserName);
  
  await page.goto('/pools');
  await page.waitForSelector('svg', { timeout });
  
  // Firefox needs extra time for D3.js rendering
  if (browserName === 'firefox') {
    await page.waitForFunction(() => {
      return document.querySelectorAll('svg path').length > 0;
    }, { timeout: 15000 });
  }
});

Mobile & Accessibility Testing

// Touch interaction and accessibility validation
test('mobile accessibility compliance', async ({ page }) => {
  await page.setViewportSize({ width: 375, height: 667 });
  await page.goto('/');
  
  // Test touch target sizes
  const touchTargets = await page.locator('button, a, [role="button"]').all();
  for (const target of touchTargets) {
    const box = await target.boundingBox();
    expect(box.width).toBeGreaterThanOrEqual(44); // WCAG minimum
    expect(box.height).toBeGreaterThanOrEqual(44);
  }
  
  // Test screen reader compatibility
  await page.keyboard.press('Tab');
  const focusedElement = await page.locator(':focus');
  expect(await focusedElement.getAttribute('aria-label')).toBeTruthy();
});

Performance Benchmarking

// Automated performance testing
test('performance benchmarks', async ({ page }) => {
  const startTime = Date.now();
  
  await page.goto('/');
  await page.waitForLoadState('networkidle');
  
  const loadTime = Date.now() - startTime;
  expect(loadTime).toBeLessThan(3000); // 3 second load time budget
  
  // Memory usage testing
  const metrics = await page.evaluate(() => performance.memory);
  expect(metrics.usedJSHeapSize).toBeLessThan(50 * 1024 * 1024); // 50MB budget
});

🔧 Common Issues and Advanced Solutions

WebSocket Testing in Different Environments

// Environment-aware WebSocket mocking
beforeEach(() => {
  const wsUrl = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'test' 
    ? 'ws://localhost:3001' 
    : 'wss://production-ws.example.com';
    
  const { MockWebSocket } = createWebSocketMock(wsUrl);
  global.WebSocket = MockWebSocket;
});

Chart.js Testing with Complex Interactions

// Advanced canvas mocking for Chart.js
beforeEach(() => {
  const mockContext = {
    fillRect: vi.fn(),
    clearRect: vi.fn(),
    getImageData: vi.fn(() => ({ data: new Uint8ClampedArray(4) })),
    createLinearGradient: vi.fn(() => ({
      addColorStop: vi.fn()
    })),
    // ... comprehensive context API
  };
  
  HTMLCanvasElement.prototype.getContext = vi.fn(() => mockContext);
});

Flaky E2E Test Prevention

// Progressive loading strategy with smart waits
import { waitForWebSocketData, waitForChartRender } from '@e2e/utils/optimizedWaits';

test('reliable data visualization test', async ({ page }) => {
  await page.goto('/pools');
  
  // Wait for WebSocket data with fallback
  await waitForWebSocketData(page, { 
    timeout: 10000,
    fallback: () => page.locator('text=No data available')
  });
  
  // Wait for chart rendering with browser-specific optimizations
  await waitForChartRender(page, {
    chartType: 'd3-svg',
    browserName: page.context().browser().browserType().name()
  });
  
  // Assertions with confidence
  await expect(page.locator('svg')).toBeVisible();
});

Cross-browser Timeout Management

// Intelligent timeout scaling based on browser capabilities
const timeouts = {
  chromium: { action: 5000, navigation: 15000 },
  firefox: { action: 8000, navigation: 20000 },  // Gecko needs more time
  webkit: { action: 10000, navigation: 25000 }   // Safari/iOS optimization
};

test.beforeEach(async ({ page, browserName }) => {
  const browserTimeouts = timeouts[browserName] || timeouts.chromium;
  page.setDefaultTimeout(browserTimeouts.action);
  page.setDefaultNavigationTimeout(browserTimeouts.navigation);
});

Test Data Management

Mock Data Location

All mock data is centralized in src/tests/mocks/mockData.js

Updating Mock Data

Update data in mockData.js
Ensure consistency across related data
Update relevant tests if structure changes

WebSocket Message Simulation

// Generate consistent WebSocket messages
const message = generateWebSocketMessage('homepage');
ws.receiveMessage(message);
