Fast and robust visual unit tests for your React application – Dzianis Artsiukhovich

Talk recording from React Advanced Meetup

# Fast and robust visual unit tests for your React application
by Dzianis Artsiukhovich

During this talk, we’ll consider different techniques of UI testing.
Discuss the difference and pros/cons of various approaches of UI testing, such as plugins for e2e tests, visual testing with storybook, their challenges.

And then discover how to implement such tests on unit/integration level, which means without server at all and based on SSR. You’ll see why and how we use visual unit tests at DAZN. Then you’ll learn how to implement such tests from scratch step by step based on small React application. We’ll also talk about the performance of such tests and about the integration into a pipeline.
