# Jest Node.js Example Showcase
Welcome to the Jest Node.js Example Showcase! This repository serves as a demonstration of how to set up and use Jest for testing Node.js applications. Jest is a delightful JavaScript testing framework that focuses on simplicity and ease of use.
This repository provides a simple example of using Jest to test a Node.js application. It includes basic configurations and examples to help you kickstart your testing journey with Jest. Whether you are new to Jest or looking for a reference, this showcase is designed to guide you through the process.
## Getting Started
To get started with this example showcase, follow these steps:
Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/BaseMax/jest-nodejs-example-showcase.git
```
Navigate to the project directory:
```bash
cd jest-nodejs-example-showcase
```
Install dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```
## Project Structure
The project structure is designed to be simple and easy to understand. Here's a brief overview:
- `__tests__/`: Houses the Jest test files corresponding to the source code.
- `package.json`: Includes project dependencies and scripts for running tests.
- `jest.config.js`: Jest configuration file with settings for test execution.
Feel free to modify the project structure based on your preferences and project requirements.
## Running Tests
Run the following command to execute the Jest tests:
```bash
npm test
npm run watchtest
```
This will trigger Jest to run all the tests in the `__tests__`/ directory. You can also use additional Jest CLI options to customize the test execution.
## Configuration
The Jest configuration can be defined in the `jest.config.js` file. This file includes settings such as test environment, test match patterns, and other configuration options. Feel free to customize this file according to your project's needs.
