jest create-react-app node env window is not defined












0















I using create-react-app with redux and log4javascript. I have started writing integration tests and running npm run test with --env=node. After I started using node, I am getting window is not defined error.



Is there a way to define window as global object while running jest tests? I have tried setting



global.window = jest.fn(() => {
location: { search: '' }
})


but still not working.

  • Is there a reason you are using --env=node? The default test environment for Jest is jsdom which provides a browser environment including the window object. The node environment is for apps designed to run on node (server code, etc.). It sounds like you are testing a React app, that should be tested in the jsdom environment.

  • I actually have little confusion on that as well. I think jsdom is the way to go. But facing some other issues related to my app.
