mock methods jest code example

Example 1: how to mock a library in jest

import randomColor from "randomcolor";


jest.mock("randomColor", () => {
  return {
    randomColor: () => {
      return mockColor('#123456');
    }
  }
});
let mockColor = jest.fn();

Example 2: jest mock instance

test("mock.instances", () => {
  const mockFn = jest.fn();

  const a = new mockFn();
  const b = new mockFn();

  mockFn.mock.instances[0] === a;
  mockFn.mock.instances[1] === b;
});
