Test-Driven React 2nd Ed (Pragmatic)
Monday, 25 November 2024

This book shows how to turn React project requirements into tests and get fast feedback. Trevor Burnham looks at how to combine the power of testing, linting, and typechecking directly in coding environments to iterate on React components. He argues that React has opened the door to a new generation of web testing: clear, expressive, and lightning fast, making React a perfect fit for test-driven development (TDD).  This second edition has been extensively revised to reflect the latest tools and techniques for React development, including TypeScript.
