I've created a Higher Order Component / Composed Component to ensure a user is authenticated before loading the Component. It's very basic, but I'm having some trouble testing it. I want to test the points below, which are similar to the tests I already have elsewhere:
className)props (in my case authenticated)authenticated and renders null if notThe HOC:
import React from 'react';
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import { createStructuredSelector } from 'reselect';
import { makeSelectAuthenticated } from 'containers/App/selectors';
export default function RequireAuth(ComposedComponent) {
class AuthenticatedComponent extends React.Component {
static contextTypes = {
router: React.PropTypes.object,
}
static propTypes = {
authenticated: React.PropTypes.bool,
}
componentWillMount() {
if (!this.props.authenticated) this.context.router.push('/');
}
componentWillUpdate(nextProps) {
if (!nextProps.authenticated) this.context.router.push('/');
}
render() {
return (
<div className="authenticated">
{ this.props.authenticated ? <ComposedComponent {...this.props} /> : null }
</div>
);
}
}
const mapStateToProps = createStructuredSelector({
authenticated: makeSelectAuthenticated(),
});
return connect(mapStateToProps)(AuthenticatedComponent);
}
I'm using enzyme and jest for my tests, but haven't found a way of rendering the HOC successfully during my tests.
Any ideas?
Solution thanks to answer below:
import React from 'react';
import { shallow, mount } from 'enzyme';
import { Provider } from 'react-redux';
import { AuthenticatedComponent } from '../index';
describe('AuthenticatedComponent', () => {
let MockComponent;
beforeEach(() => {
MockComponent = () => <div />;
MockComponent.displayName = 'MockComponent';
});
it('renders its children when authenticated', () => {
const wrapper = shallow(
<AuthenticatedComponent
composedComponent={MockComponent}
authenticated={true}
/>,
{ context: { router: { push: jest.fn() } } }
);
expect(wrapper.find('MockComponent').length).toEqual(1);
});
it('renders null when not authenticated', () => {
const wrapper = shallow(
<AuthenticatedComponent
composedComponent={MockComponent}
authenticated={false}
/>,
{ context: { router: { push: jest.fn() } } }
);
expect(wrapper.find('MockComponent').length).toEqual(0);
});
});
The "tricky" part here is that your HOC returns a connected component, which makes testing harder because you have shallow render two layers (the connected component and the actual component) and you have to mock the redux store.
Instead you could define the AuthenticatedComponent upfront and export it as a named export. Than you can test it independently of connect like you test every other component:
export class AuthenticatedComponent extends React.Component {
static contextTypes = {
router: React.PropTypes.object,
}
static propTypes = {
authenticated: React.PropTypes.bool,
composedComponent: React.PropTypes.any.isRequired,
}
componentWillMount() {
if (!this.props.authenticated) this.context.router.push('/');
}
componentWillUpdate(nextProps) {
if (!nextProps.authenticated) this.context.router.push('/');
}
render() {
const ComposedComponent = this.props.composedComponent;
return (
<div className="authenticated">
{ this.props.authenticated ? <ComposedComponent {...this.props} /> : null }
</div>
);
}
}
export default function RequireAuth(ComposedComponent) {
const mapStateToProps = () => {
const selectIsAuthenticated = makeSelectAuthenticated();
return (state) => ({
authenticated: selectIsAuthenticated(state),
composedComponent: ComposedComponent,
});
};
return connect(mapStateToProps)(AuthenticatedComponent);
}
Example test:
import React from 'react';
import { shallow, mount } from 'enzyme';
import { Provider } from 'react-redux';
import configureStore from 'redux-mock-store';
import RequireAuth, { AuthenticatedComponent } from '../';
const Component = () => <div />;
Component.displayName = 'CustomComponent';
const mockStore = configureStore([]);
describe.only('HOC', () => {
const RequireAuthComponent = RequireAuth(Component);
const context = { router: { push: jest.fn() } };
const wrapper = mount(
<Provider store={mockStore({})}>
<RequireAuthComponent />
</Provider>,
{
context,
childContextTypes: { router: React.PropTypes.object.isRequired },
}
);
it('should return a component', () => {
expect(wrapper.find('Connect(AuthenticatedComponent)')).toHaveLength(1);
});
it('should pass correct props', () => {
expect(wrapper.find('AuthenticatedComponent').props()).toEqual(
expect.objectContaining({
authenticated: false,
composedComponent: Component,
})
);
});
});
describe('rendering', () => {
describe('is authenticated', () => {
const wrapper = shallow(
<AuthenticatedComponent
composedComponent={Component}
authenticated
/>,
{ context: { router: { push: jest.fn() } } }
);
it('should render the passed component', () => {
expect(wrapper.find('CustomComponent')).toHaveLength(1);
});
});
describe('is not authenticated', () => {
const wrapper = shallow(
<AuthenticatedComponent
composedComponent={Component}
authenticated={false}
/>,
{ context: { router: { push: jest.fn() } } }
);
it('should not render the passed component', () => {
expect(wrapper.find('CustomComponent')).toHaveLength(0);
});
});
});
