Summary

Covers testing across the JavaScript stack: Node backends, browser code, and React in particular. Da Costa starts with what to test and when, then works through backend testing, the React testing ecosystem, and the parts that are genuinely difficult, namely asynchronous code, network dependencies, and where to stop mocking. Practical about the testing pyramid rather than doctrinaire.

Target Readers

  • JavaScript and Node developers whose test suites are slow or brittle
  • Frontend engineers deciding how much to mock when code depends on network calls
