what is JEST for unit testing code example
Example 1: testing with jest
npm i jest --save -dev
-> In Package.json change the Script object(watchAll - jest will run auto)
"test" : "jest --watchAll"
-> test file should be named such way that re used by jest can recognize it
like filename.<test> or <spec> or skip it.js
Ex: sum.test.js or sum.spec.js or sum.js
-> require the target for testing file in this test file then enjoy testing.

Example 2: different types of unit testing in jest
describe('in the math global object', () => {
describe('the random function', () => {
it('should return a number', () => {
expect(typeof Math.random()).toEqual('number');
})
it('should return a number between 0 and 1', () => {
const randomNumber = Math.random();
expect(randomNumber).toBeGreaterThanOrEqual(0);
expect(randomNumber).toBeLessThan(1);
})
});
describe('the round function', () => {
it('should return a rounded value of 4.5 being 5', () => {
