Architecting Vue.js 3 Enterprise-Ready Web Applications

By: Solomon Eseme

Overview of this book

Building enterprise-ready Vue.js apps entails following best practices for creating high-performance and scalable applications. Complete with step-by-step explanations and best practices outlined, this Vue.js book is a must-read for any developer who works with a large Vue.js codebase where performance and scalability are indispensable. Throughout this book, you’ll learn how to configure and set up Vue.js 3 and the composition API and use it to build real-world applications. You’ll develop the skills to create reusable components and scale performance in Vue.js 3 applications. As you progress, the book guides you in scaling performance with asynchronous lazy loading, image compression, code splitting, and tree shaking. Furthermore, you’ll see how to use the Restful API, Docker, GraphQL, and different types of testing to ensure that your Vue.js 3 application is scalable and maintainable. By the end of this book, you’ll be well-versed in best practices for implementing Restful API, Docker, GraphQL, and testing methods to build and deploy an enterprise-ready Vue.js 3 application of any scale.

Unit testing a Vue.js 3 app

In the previous chapter, we created a Pinterest application using Strapi for the backend and Vue.js 3 for the frontend.

Previously, we added internationalization, structured the project, and built out a complete Pinterest clone. In this section, we will continue by using the official project we created for this book to set up unit testing, resulting in a full-blown enterprise-ready Pinterest clone application.

You can clone the project from this repository, https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Architecting-Vue.js-3-Enterprise-Ready-Web-Applications, to jump right in.

In the previous chapter, we set up basic unit testing using Vitest and demonstrated how to implement basic unit testing with a helper file.

In this chapter, we will explore more advanced ways of testing the units of the Pinterest clone application we are using as the example throughout this book.

What to test
