How to mock properly @react-native-firebase/firestore

[stasmotorny]

Hey, guys. I'm trying to mock firestore for testing, but can't find the wright workaround.

my mock for firestore:

import {jest} from '@jest/globals';
import {mockReactNativeFirestore} from 'firestore-jest-mock';

const db = {
  userCollection: {
    1: {
      collection: [101922, 1535, 105778, 105398, 30002],
    },
  },
};

jest.mock('@react-native-firebase/firestore', () =>
  mockReactNativeFirestore(db),
);

With this implementation my tests often fails with error TypeError: (0 , _firestore.default) is not a function. I think something is wrong with my mock but can't figure out what exactly.

mockReactNativeFirestore actually does the mock for you, so you shouldn't have to call jest.mock. The test should look like:

describe('your test', () => {
  mockReactNativeFirestore({
    userCollection: {
      1: {
        collection: [101922, 1535, 105778, 105398, 30002],
      },
    },
  };

  test('something', () => {
      // the rest of the test
  });
});

      },
    },
  };

  test('something', () => {
      // the rest of the test
  });
});

Hm. My tests still failed. This time I mocked firestore like this:

mockReactNativeFirestore({
  database: {
    userCollection: [
      {
        id: '1',
        collection: [101922, 1535, 105778, 105398, 30002],
      },
    ],
  },
});

My test looks like this:

it('should render item title', () => {
  const wrapper = render(<ListItem item={item} isInCollection={true} />);
  expect(wrapper.getAllByText('Some title')).toHaveLength(1);
  expect(wrapper.getAllByText('Finished')).toHaveLength(1);
});

Inside component I'm using firestore like this:

const firebase = firestore().collection('userCollection').doc(user?.user.uid);
<Button
  testID="remove_button"
  onPress={() => {
    firebase.update({
      collection: firestore.FieldValue.arrayRemove(item.id),
    });
  }}>
            Remove
</Button>

The only way I found to make tests work is to mock firebase manually like this:

jest.mock('@react-native-firebase/firestore', () => {
  const mockFirestore: any = jest.fn().mockReturnValue({
    collection: jest.fn().mockReturnValue({
      doc: jest.fn().mockReturnValue({
        collection: [101922, 1535, 105778, 105398, 30002],
        update: jest.fn(),
      }),
    }),
  });

  mockFirestore.FieldValue = {
    arrayUnion: jest.fn(),
    arrayRemove: jest.fn(),
  };

  return mockFirestore;
});

This way works but I will need to extend it for every new case, so it is better to use your library.

I will appreciate any ideas of how to make it work. Thank you.

Oh, I forgot to add an error I got during the test.

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'collection')
