Specifications Addon npm version

Needs at least react-storybook 2.2.1

This addon for storybook will allow you to write tests based on your stories and display results directly inside storybook.

If you want to learn more about the ideas behind this addon, you can read this article : Building a react components living documentation using react-storybook..

Getting Started

First, install the addon

npm install -D storybook-addon-specifications

Add this line to your addons.js file (create this file inside your storybook config directory if needed).

import 'storybook-addon-specifications/register';

Import the specs, describe and it functions and use it to write your tests. This example uses enzyme and expect to perform the testing.

The first parameter of the describe function must be the same as the story's name.

import { storiesOf } from '@kadira/storybook'
import { specs, describe, it } from 'storybook-addon-specifications'

import {mount} from "enzyme";
import expect from "expect";

const stories = storiesOf('Button', module);

stories.add('Hello World', function () {
  const story =
    <button onClick={action('Hello World')}>
      Hello World
    </button>;

  specs(() => describe('Hello World', function () {
    it('Should have the Hello World label', function () {
      let output = mount(story);
      expect(output.text()).toContain('Hello World');
    });
  }));

  return story;
});

Note : if you use enzyme, you will need to add the following lines to your webpack.config.js file. You also need to add the json library to your dev dependencies.

externals: {
   'jsdom': 'window',
   'cheerio': 'window',
   'react/lib/ExecutionEnvironment': true,
   'react/lib/ReactContext': 'window',
   'react/addons': true,
 }

You can use beforeEach, before, after and afterEach functions to mutualize or clean up some stuff.

Use your stories with a test runner

Writing tests directly next to the component declaration used for the story is already a great thing, but it would be better if those tests can be reused with our test runner, and later be used with our CI.

To do that, the idea is to add to the test runner, all the files used for declaring stories. But because this addon redefine describe and it functions, you'll need some extra-configuration to make the tests pass within the test runner.

This repository has a directory full of examples where you can find everything that is describe here.

Using Jest

You can use the mocking functionality of Jest to switch between the real describe and its implementation of Jest or the one for this addon.

Inside .storybook, add a facade.js file with the following content :

import {storiesOf as storiesOfReal, action as actionReal, linkTo as linkToReal} from "@kadira/storybook"
import { specs as specsReal, describe as describeReal, it as itReal } from 'storybook-addon-specifications'

export const storiesOf = storiesOfReal;
export const action = actionReal;
export const linkTo = linkToReal;
export const specs = specsReal;
export const describe = describeReal;
export const it = itReal;

Create a __mocks__ directory within .storybook and add also a facade.js file.

export const storiesOf = function storiesOf() {
  var api = {};
  api.add = (name, func)=> {
    func();
    return api;
  };
  api.addWithInfo = (name, func)=> {
    func();
    return api;
  };
  return api;
};
export const action = () => {};

export const linkTo = () => {};

export const specs = (spec) => {
  spec();
};

export const describe = jasmine.currentEnv_.describe;
export const it = jasmine.currentEnv_.it;

Create or add to your Jest config file the following line :

jest.mock('./.storybook/facade');

Inside your stories file you must now use the .storybook/facade.js file for imports.

Finally add this to your Jest configuration :

"jest":{
    "setupFiles": [
      "./path/to/your/jest/config/file.js"
    ],
    "automock": false,
    }

Hooks and specifics jest features

This addon now supports :

  • beforeEach
  • afterEach
  • fit (no effect on storybook specs execution)
  • xit
  • xdescribe

Please refer to Jest documentation to know how to use them.

If you want to use that with storybook, you'll need to add them to your facade and facade-mock files. You can find the complete configuration by looking at the samples directory

Snapshot all your stories automatically

Warning : This part will describe how to automatically add Jest snapshots to every story you write. It will allow you to take advantage of this Jest feature but will not have any effect inside storybook. Indeed, you don't even need to add this addon to your project if you don't plan to use the specs() function. If I describe the idea here, it's only because it uses the trick I explained before allowing you to write tests inside stories and still be able to execute them with a test runner.

The only thing to do is to modify the facade.js mock file (the one used by Jest) to look like this :

export const storiesOf = function storiesOf() {
  var api = {};
  var story;
  api.add = (name, func)=> {
    story = func();
    snapshot(name, story);
    return api;
  };
  api.addWithInfo = (name, func)=> {
    story = func();
    snapshot(name, story);
    return api;
  };
  return api;
};
export const action = () => {};

export const linkTo = () => {};

export const specs = (spec) => {
  spec()
};

export const snapshot = (name, story) => {
    it(name, function () {
      let renderer = require("react-test-renderer");
      const tree = renderer.create(story).toJSON();
      expect(tree).toMatchSnapshot();
    });
};

export const describe = jasmine.currentEnv_.describe;
export const it = jasmine.currentEnv_.it;

Every story added to storybook, will now have a snapshot.

If for any reason you want to choose when to snapshot a story, that's also possible.

  1. remove snapshot() function calls from add and addWithInfo in facade.js mock file.
  2. use the snapshot() function directly inside the story like you do with specs()
  3. Add this line to the facade.js file used for import functions.
export const snapshot = () => {};

When storybook is going to run, it will do nothing with the snapshot function.

Using Mocha

Please note that when using mocha as a test runner, all storybook functions that you use on your stories files are going to become globally defined. (see step4). The reason for that simple, unlike Jest, mocking functions is going to be made by redefining them globally (see step 3).

  1. Create the same facade.js file than for the jest configuration

  2. Create wherever you want a new file that will mock the storybook api

export const storiesOf = function storiesOf() {
  var api = {};
  api.add = (name, func)=> {
    func();
    return api;
  };
  api.addWithInfo = (name, func)=> {
    func();
    return api;
  };
  return api;
};
export const action = () => {};

export const linkTo = () => {};

export const specs = (spec) => {
  spec();
};

export const describe = describe;
export const it = it;
  1. Then create or add those lines to a mocha config file :
import {storiesOf, action, linkTo, specs, describe, it} from "path/to/your/mock/file";
global.storiesOf = storiesOf;
global.action = action;
global.linkTo = linkTo;
global.specs = specs;
global.describe = describe;
global.it = it;
  1. And also those lines to the storybook config file
import {storiesOf, action, linkTo, specs, describe, it} from "./facade";

global.storiesOf = storiesOf;
global.action = action;
global.linkTo = linkTo;
global.specs = specs;
global.describe = describe;
global.it = it;

Finally add this to your mocha running script

-require test/path/to/your/config/file.js

Warning : if you already have some specific configuration for mocha, please note that this sample needs to be adapted for your specific use-case. Please also note that in the sample directory of this repository, the mocha config file is a little bit more complexe in order to be able to use jsdom.

If you need it, and don't use it already, you can add those line :

// choose one of the following
import { jsdom } from 'jsdom'; // older versions of JSDOM
import { JSDOM } from 'jsdom'; // newer version 
/**
*Mocking browser-like DOM
*/
// old jsdom
global.document = jsdom('<!doctype html><html><body></body></html>', {
 headers: {
   'User-Agent':
   'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_7)' +
   ' AppleWebKit/534.24 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/11.0.696.71 Safari/534.24'
 }
});

// new version

global.document = (new JSDOM('<!doctype html>', { 324 headers: { 325   'User-Agent': 326   'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_7)' + 327   ' AppleWebKit/534.24 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/11.0.696.71 Safari/534.24' 328 } 329 })).window.document; global.window = document.defaultView; global.navigator = global.window.navigator;

or if you are a newer version of jsdom

/**
*Mocking browser-like DOM
*/
import { JSDOM } from 'jsdom';
global.document = (new JSDOM('<!doctype html><html><body></body></html>', {
 headers: {
   'User-Agent':
   'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_7)' +
   ' AppleWebKit/534.24 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/11.0.696.71 Safari/534.24'
 }
})).window.document;
global.window = document.defaultView;
global.navigator = global.window.navigator;

Hooks and specifics mocha features

This addon now supports :

  • beforeEach
  • afterEach
  • before
  • after
  • describe.only (no effect on storybook specs execution)
  • describe.skip
  • it.only (no effect on storybook specs execution)
  • it.skip

Please refer to mocha documentation to know how to use them.

If you want to use that with storybook, you'll need to add them to your mocha config and storybook config files. You can find the complete configuration by looking at the samples directory

Loading External Test Files

It is also possible to load your test files externally from their respective test files.

|- example.stories.js
|- example.test.js
|- example.js

This allows us to run both our test runner, and view the test results inside of React Storybook.

import React from 'react'
import { storiesOf } from '@kadira/storybook'
import { specs } from 'storybook-addon-specifications'

import { tests } from './Example.test'
import Example from './example'

storiesOf('Example', module)
  .add('Default', () => {
  
    // tests are loaded here
    specs(() => tests)
    
    return <Example />
  })

We must first override the Jest describe/it/expect blocks to use the storybook-addon-spec's implementation. Add the following to your storybook config file.

/.storybook/config.js

import { describe, it } from 'storybook-addon-specifications'
import expect from 'expect'

window.describe = describe
window.it = it
window.expect = expect
