Im having a problem with a query, I'm trying to get two radio inputs, I don't have any problem with one of them, but with the other one React Testing Library thrown an error: It Found multiple elements with the role "radio" and name /to/i:
test('Render form with default items', () => {
const handleUpdateValue = jest.fn();
const handleNextStep = jest.fn();
render(
<Form
handleNextStep={handleNextStep}
updateValue={handleUpdateValue}
transferFundsValues={{}}
/>
);
const amountInput = screen.getByLabelText(/amount/i);
const fromRadio = screen.getByLabelText(/from/i);
const toRadio = screen.getByLabelText(/to/i);
const messageInput = screen.getByLabelText(/message/i);
const continueButton = screen.getByRole('button', { name: /continue/i });
const cancelButton = screen.getByRole('button', { name: /cancel/i });
// If no value has been entered to the inputs, the continue button must be
// disabled
expect(continueButton).toBeDisabled();
});
<label for="transferFunds_from" class="ant-form-item-required" title="From">From</label>
<input id="transferFunds_from" type="radio" class="ant-radio-button-input" value="">
<label for="transferFunds_to" class="ant-form-item-required" title="To">To</label>
<input id="transferFunds_to" type="radio" class="ant-radio-button-input" value="">
TestingLibraryElementError: Found multiple elements with the role "radio" and name `/to/i`
Here are the matching elements:
<input
class="ant-radio-button-input"
id="transferFunds_from"
type="radio"
value=""
/>
<input
class="ant-radio-button-input"
id="transferFunds_to"
type="radio"
value=""
/>
I don't know if I'm doing something wrong in the HTML structure or if it's a React Testing Library error.
Just a quick tip, if you have multiple matching elements, you can query like this:
HTML:
<a href="/my-element">My element</a>
<a href="/my-element">My element</a>
TEST:
test('renders my element', () => {
let link = screen.getAllByText('My element')[0] as HTMLAnchorElement;
expect(link.href).toContain('/my-element');
});
What was causing this for me was simply having another render() in the test file that was not inside an it().... so the component was being rendered twice.
rookie mistake :-)
I wrote similar expects and for me works well. Maybe something is wrong with your current @testing-library/react version. Try 10.4.9
The code that I used
import React from 'react'
import { render, screen } from '@testing-library/react'
function Form() {
return (
<div>
<label
htmlFor="transferFunds_from"
className="ant-form-item-required"
title="From"
>
From
</label>
<input
id="transferFunds_from"
type="radio"
className="ant-radio-button-input"
value=""
/>
<label
htmlFor="transferFunds_to"
className="ant-form-item-required"
title="To"
>
To
</label>
<input
id="transferFunds_to"
type="radio"
className="ant-radio-button-input"
value=""
/>
</div>
)
}
test('Render form with default items', () => {
render(<Form />)
const fromRadio = screen.getByLabelText(/from/i)
const toRadio = screen.getByLabelText(/to/i)
expect(fromRadio).toBeVisible()
expect(toRadio).toBeVisible()
})
