How to use jest with webpack?

Question

I use webpack to develop a React component. Here is a simple version of it:

\'use strict\';

require(\'./MyComponent.less\');

var React = require(\'react\')         


        

Answer 1

From Jest docs:

// in terminal, add new dependency: identity-obj-proxy
npm install --save-dev identity-obj-proxy

// package.json (for CSS Modules)
{
  "jest": {
    "moduleNameMapper": {
      "\\.(css|less)$": "identity-obj-proxy"
    }
  }
}

The snippet above will route all .less files to the new dependency identity-obj-proxy, which will return a string with the classname when invoked, e.g. 'styleName' for styles.styleName.
