JavaScript unit testing

As a developer, writing unit tests for your task is your responsibility. It should be part of your day-to-day activities as you code. In JavaScript, you can write unit tests the same way you write your real code with the use of different testing libraries.

With these testing libraries, testing the functionalities and features of your project becomes very easy because the libraries include different assertion methods to carry out your checks.

Let’s explore some of the most popular JavaScript testing frameworks you can use to write your unit tests, integration tests, and even end-to-end tests.
