After releasing tabular assertions I started wondering whether they should be two separate packages, which got me thinking about in the long term for these packages.
I think the ideal destination is supporting inline snapshots like Jest. That way there would only be snapshot testing, and the tabular notation would be just another driver to serialize the date. Users could then choose to write the tables inline or in a snapshot file.
The hard part about inline snapshots is the AST part: writing the output inside the actual test file. Really considering doing this soon though, because it would be the perfect baseline for a lot of other testing possibilities I have in mind…
Dear contributor,
because this issue seems to be inactive for quite some time now, I've automatically closed it. If you feel this issue deserves some attention from my human colleagues feel free to reopen it.
@sebastiandedeyne I am still very much interested in having this feature, but I'm unable to re-open the issue.
Please would you consider re-opening it so that it does not get buried.
Feature Description
I'd like to propose adding a driver to allow the use of tabular-assertions as the snapshot format. This would bring some benefits, mirroring those offered by tabular-assertions:
Potential Challenges & Solutions
--update-snapshots
command. A workaround could be to initially support tabular assertions without dynamic values and explore this complexity in a later phase.Additional Feature Suggestion
I am interested to hear your thoughts, or any plans regarding this suggestion.
Thank you for considering this feature request.
