CLI wrapper for recording jest tests
npm install @recordreplay/jestreplay-jest is a wrapper around Jest that creates recordings of failed tests for debugging using the Replay devtools.
Install replay-jest either locally within the project, or globally with -g. replay-jest uses the replay-node package and is currently only available on macOS and linux.
``
npm i @recordreplay/jest
If replay-jest and jest are local to a package, add a script to the package.json:
`
"scripts": {
"replay-jest": "replay-jest",
},
Recording and uploading tests requires an API key, see the settings in the replay devtools to obtain one. Set the RECORD_REPLAY_API_KEY environment variable to this key while running replay-jest.
If replay-jest and jest are installed globally, record tests by running replay-jest.
If replay-jest and jest are installed locally, run the script added to package.json: npm run replay-jest or yarn replay-jest.
replay-jest runs all tests normally. Afterwards, it detects failed tests and creates recordings for each of them, uploading them to the replay web service and ensuring they have been processed so they will load quickly. Lines like the ones below will be logged to show progress and any errors. The recording URLs can be loaded in any web browser for debugging.
`
replay-jest $TestPath: Creating recording...
replay-jest $TestPath: Uploading and processing recording...
replay-jest $TestPath recording: https://app.replay.io/recording/$RecordingId
By default, recordings will only be created for failing tests, and at most 10 recordings will be created in one test run.
To override this default behavior, a configuration JSON object can be specified with additional options. This can be specified either via the value of the RECORD_REPLAY_JEST_CONFIGURATION environment variable, or in a file referenced by the RECORD_REPLAY_JEST_CONFIGURATION_FILE environment variable.
Configuration objects can have the following properties:
* maxRecordings: A number overriding the maximum number of recordings which can be created in one test run.
* recordAll: Set to record all tests, up to the maximum number of recordings allowed.
* randomize`: Set to randomize which tests will be selected to record if there are more than the maximum number allowed. This is useful to improve coverage in CI environments when there are many tests which could be recorded.
