Only with the enableOwnerStacks flag (which is not on in www). This is a new DEV-only API to be able to implement what we do for console.error in user space. This API does not actually include the current stack that you'd get from `new Error().stack`. That you'd have to add yourself. This adds the ability to have conditional development exports because we plan on eventually having separate ESM builds that use the "development" or "production" export conditions. NOTE: This removes the export of `act` from `react` in prod (as opposed to a function that throws) - inline with what we do with other conditional exports.
react-test-renderer (DEPRECATED)
Deprecation notice
react-test-renderer is deprecated and no longer maintained. It will be removed in a future version. As of React 19, you will see a console warning when invoking ReactTestRenderer.create().
React Testing
This library creates a contrived environment and its APIs encourage introspection on React's internals, which may change without notice causing broken tests. It is instead recommended to use browser-based environments such as jsdom and standard DOM APIs for your assertions.
The React team recommends @testing-library/react as a modern alternative that uses standard APIs, avoids internals, and promotes best practices.
React Native Testing
The React team recommends @testing-library/react-native as a replacement for react-test-renderer for native integration tests. This React Native testing-library variant follows the same API design as described above and promotes better testing patterns.
Documentation
This package provides an experimental React renderer that can be used to render React components to pure JavaScript objects, without depending on the DOM or a native mobile environment.
Essentially, this package makes it easy to grab a snapshot of the "DOM tree" rendered by a React DOM or React Native component without using a browser or jsdom.
Documentation: https://reactjs.org/docs/test-renderer.html
Usage:
const ReactTestRenderer = require('react-test-renderer');
const renderer = ReactTestRenderer.create(
<Link page="https://www.facebook.com/">Facebook</Link>
);
console.log(renderer.toJSON());
// { type: 'a',
// props: { href: 'https://www.facebook.com/' },
// children: [ 'Facebook' ] }
You can also use Jest's snapshot testing feature to automatically save a copy of the JSON tree to a file and check in your tests that it hasn't changed: https://jestjs.io/blog/2016/07/27/jest-14.html.
