- Prior experience with testing frameworks like Jest or Vitest is required.
- Basic level of TypeScript is recommended since all the exercises are written in TypeScript and you may have to write a type or two yourself.
- Visual Studio Code or Visual Studio Code-based editor is recommended as a few exercises feature extensions for that editor. The majority of the topics, however, is editor-agnostic.
Here are some resources you can read before taking the workshop to get you up to speed on some of the tools and concepts we'll be covering:
- Why Vitest? and Vitest comparisons to other tools will give you a good understanding as to why we are using Vitest in this (and other) workshops.
- Working with Visual Studio Code Extensions Marketplace.
All of these must be available in your PATH
. To verify things are set up
properly, you can run this:
git --version
node --version
npm --version
If you have trouble with any of these, learn more about the PATH environment variable and how to fix it here for windows or mac/linux.
This is a pretty large project (it's actually many apps in one) so it can take several minutes to get everything set up the first time. Please have a strong network connection before running the setup and grab a snack.
Warning: This repo is very large. Make sure you have a good internet connection before you start the setup process. The instructions below use
--depth
to limit the amount you download, but if you have a slow connection, or you pay for bandwidth, you may want to find a place with a better connection.
Follow these steps to get this set up:
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/epicweb-dev/advanced-vitest-patterns.git
cd advanced-vitest-patterns
npm run setup
If you experience errors here, please open an issue with as many details as you can offer.
