## Getting Started
<!-- copied from Getting Started docs, links updated to point to Jest website -->
Install Jest using [`yarn`](https://yarnpkg.com/en/package/jest):
```bash
yarn add --dev jest
```
Or [`npm`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/jest):
```bash
npm install --save-dev jest
```
Note: Jest documentation uses `yarn` commands, but `npm` will also work. You can compare `yarn` and `npm` commands in the [yarn docs, here](https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/migrating-from-npm#toc-cli-commands-comparison).
Let's get started by writing a test for a hypothetical function that adds two numbers. First, create a `sum.js` file:
```javascript
function sum(a, b) {
return a + b;
}
module.exports = sum;
```
Then, create a file named `sum.test.js`. This will contain our actual test:
```javascript
const sum = require('./sum');
test('adds 1 + 2 to equal 3', () => {
expect(sum(1, 2)).toBe(3);
});
```
Add the following section to your `package.json`:
```json
{
"scripts": {
"test": "jest"
}
}
```
Finally, run `yarn test` or `npm test` and Jest will print this message:
```bash
PASS ./sum.test.js
✓ adds 1 + 2 to equal 3 (5ms)
```
**You just successfully wrote your first test using Jest!**
This test used `expect` and `toBe` to test that two values were exactly identical. To learn about the other things that Jest can test, see [Using Matchers](https://jestjs.io/docs/using-matchers).
## Running from command line
You can run Jest directly from the CLI (if it's globally available in your `PATH`, e.g. by `yarn global add jest` or `npm install jest --global`) with a variety of useful options.
Here's how to run Jest on files matching `my-test`, using `config.json` as a configuration file and display a native OS notification after the run:
```bash
jest my-test --notify --config=config.json
```
If you'd like to learn more about running `jest` through the command line, take a look at the [Jest CLI Options](https://jestjs.io/docs/cli) page.
## Additional Configuration
### Generate a basic configuration file
Based on your project, Jest will ask you a few questions and will create a basic configuration file with a short description for each option:
```bash
jest --init
```
### Using Babel
To use [Babel](https://babeljs.io/), install required dependencies via `yarn`:
```bash
yarn add --dev babel-jest @babel/core @babel/preset-env
```
Configure Babel to target your current version of Node by creating a `babel.config.js` file in the root of your project:
```javascript
// babel.config.js
module.exports = {
presets: [['@babel/preset-env', {targets: {node: 'current'}}]],
};
```
_The ideal configuration for Babel will depend on your project._ See [Babel's docs](https://babeljs.io/docs/en/) for more details.
<details><summary markdown="span"><strong>Making your Babel config jest-aware</strong></summary>
Jest will set `process.env.NODE_ENV` to `'test'` if it's not set to something else. You can use that in your configuration to conditionally setup only the compilation needed for Jest, e.g.
```javascript
// babel.config.js
module.exports = api => {
const isTest = api.env('test');
// You can use isTest to determine what presets and plugins to use.
return {
// ...
};
};
```
> Note: `babel-jest` is automatically installed when installing Jest and will automatically transform files if a babel configuration exists in your project. To avoid this behavior, you can explicitly reset the `transform` configuration option:
```javascript
// jest.config.js
module.exports = {
transform: {},
};
```
</details>
<!-- Note that the Babel 6 section in the Getting Started was removed -->
### Using webpack
Jest can be used in projects that use [webpack](https://webpack.js.org/) to manage assets, styles, and compilation. webpack does offer some unique challenges over other tools. Refer to the [webpack guide](https://jestjs.io/docs/webpack) to get started.
### Using parcel
Jest can be used in projects that use [parcel-bundler](https://parceljs.org/) to manage assets, styles, and compilation similar to webpack. Parcel requires zero configuration. Refer to the official [docs](https://parceljs.org/docs/) to get started.
### Using TypeScript
Jest supports TypeScript, via Babel. First, make sure you followed the instructions on [using Babel](#using-babel) above. Next, install the `@babel/preset-typescript` via `yarn`:
```bash
yarn add --dev @babel/preset-typescript
```
Then add `@babel/preset-typescript` to the list of presets in your `babel.config.js`.
```diff
// babel.config.js
module.exports = {
presets: [
['@babel/preset-env', {targets: {node: 'current'}}],
+ '@babel/preset-typescript',
],
};
```
However, there are some [caveats](https://babeljs.io/docs/en/babel-plugin-transform-typescript#caveats) to using TypeScript with Babel. Because TypeScript support in Babel is purely transpilation, Jest will not type-check your tests as they are run. If you want that, you can use [ts-jest](https://github.com/kulshekhar/ts-jest) instead, or just run the TypeScript compiler [tsc](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/compiler-options.html) separately (or as part of your build process).
