I wonder if there is a better way to disable console errors inside a specific Jest test (i.e., restore the original console before/after each test).
Here is my current approach:
describe("Some description", () => {
let consoleSpy;
beforeEach(() => {
if (typeof consoleSpy === "function") {
consoleSpy.mockRestore();
}
});
test("Some test that should not output errors to jest console", () => {
expect.assertions(2);
consoleSpy = jest.spyOn(console, "error").mockImplementation();
// some function that uses console error
expect(someFunction).toBe("X");
expect(consoleSpy).toHaveBeenCalled();
});
test("Test that has console available", () => {
// shows up during jest watch test, just as intended
console.error("test");
});
});
Is there a cleaner way of accomplishing the same thing? I would like to avoid spyOn
, but mockRestore
only seems to work with it.
Thanks!
