Overview of this book

Building large-scale applications in production can be overwhelming with the amount of tooling choices and lack of cohesive resources. To address these challenges, this hands-on guide covers best practices and web application development examples to help you build enterprise-ready applications with React in no time. Throughout the book, you’ll work through a real-life practical example that demonstrates all the concepts covered. You’ll learn to build modern frontend applications—built from scratch and ready for production. Starting with an overview of the React ecosystem, the book will guide you in identifying the tools available to solve complex development challenges. You’ll then advance to building APIs, components, and pages to form a complete frontend app. The book will also share best practices for testing, securing, and packaging your app in a structured way before finally deploying your app with scalability in mind. By the end of the book, you’ll be able to efficiently build production-ready applications by following industry practices and expert tips.

Testing

We have finally finished developing our application. Before we release it to production, we want to ensure that everything works as expected.

In this chapter, we will learn how to test our application by using different testing approaches. This will give us the confidence to refactor the application, build new features, and modify the existing ones without worrying about breaking the current application behavior.

We will be covering the following topics:

  • Unit testing
  • Integration testing
  • End-to-end testing

By the end of this chapter, we will know how to test our application with different methods and tools.
