Testing an app
Set up testing for a Nuxt application
Nuxt test utils exposes a number of useful methods you can use when testing a Nuxt application.
These helper methods require that you pass { server: true } as an option to setupTest (more info).
get
You can get a response to a server-rendered page with get.
Example
import { get, setupTest } from '@nuxt/test-utils'
describe('ssr', () => {
setupTest({ server: true })
it('renders the index page', async () => {
const { body } = await get('/')
expect(body).toContain('<a>A Link</a>')
})
})
url
This helper simply returns the full URL for a given page (including the port the test server is running on.)
Example
import { url, setupTest } from '@nuxt/test-utils'
describe('ssr', () => {
setupTest({ server: true })
it('renders the index page', async () => {
const thePage = url('/page')
// is something like 'http://localhost:6840/page'
})
})
