Testing React + GraphQL like a boss

Length

Twitter-sized Overview (140 characters)

there is a reason why in all the media frenzy about react apollo, you haven't seen a single example how to test it. because it's hard. the good news, we've built something to make it better

Detailed Overview

For the past 6 months were transitioning towards graphql everything at Shortlyster. Once subject we had run into consistently is how do you test react-apollo apps? The official testing policy is almost non-existent and doesn't offer much beside randomly generated data stubs.

So, i've built this project called graphql-mock that allows to test react apollo projects in a predictable and civilized way. We've been quite happy using it in the last few months, and so I thought it might be a good idea to share it with the reset of the community.

Also, while we're at it, why don't we turn this into a dazzling life-hacking TDD show?

A very practical library! Will be great to hear more about it.

I'm pending one thing for our July event, so I'll leave this as Unconfirmed until I have a certain available date (either July 2nd, or August 6th).

Hey Jess,

Is there any chance we’d have a headset or a mic stand tonight? I’m going to be life hacking and will need my hands free

jesstelford commented 6 years ago

We have a lapel mic (clips onto your shirt), and if that doesn't work, we have a human mic stand (I can hold the mic for you) 👍
