I'd really like to upgrade to Typescript 3 for its `unknown` type, but we need to upgrade to `jest@23` to support a recent version of `ts-jest@23`. The [jest changelog](https://github.com/facebook/jest/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md) breaks down the breaking changes in 23.x, but I found it to be slightly incomplete so I've broken down the changes that actually caused breaks for us here, and addressed each in individual commits to make review a little easier: - the `testURL` config default was changed from `about:blank` to `http://localhost` - this cause some XHR requests powered by JSdom to start failing. It seems these requests just do nothing in master but start to fail when JSdom is initialized with an actual URL... I think we would ideally stop sending meaningless XHR requests in the tests, but it was a lot easier to just set the config to `about:blank` for now, and we can worry about cleanup later if necessary - `expect(...).toThrow()` only passes if an actual error was thrown. - In two places in the index pattern code we were throwing strings, which broke the assertions. Fortunately/Unfortunately the errors are not being consumed by anything, so I was able to wrap them in `new Error()` without causing any issues. - snapshots of mock functions now include a `results` array, detailing the return values of the function - React fragments are now serialized as `<React.Fragment>` instead of `<UNDEFINED>` - undefined props in React components are now stripped from snapshots - minor changes to the ordering of mocks, imports resolution, and before hooks caused the uiSettings API tests to start breaking, but I'm replacing them with totally new tests in #22694 so I just deleted them here - mocks created with `jest.spyOn()` that are restored now have their `mock.calls` reset, so some of the kbn-pm tests stated failing. This was fixed by restoring them with `jest.restoreAllMocks()` rather than trying to do it before the assertions |

Kibana-related packages
This folder contains packages that are intended for use in Kibana and Kibana plugins.
tl;dr:
- Don't publish to npm registry
- Always use the
@kbn
namespace - Always set
"private": true
inpackage.json
Using these packages
We no longer publish these packages to the npm registry. Now, instead of
specifying a version when including these packages, we rely on link:
dependencies in Yarn, which sets up a symlink to the package.
For example if you want to use the @kbn/datemath
package in Kibana itself, you
can specify the dependency like this:
"@kbn/datemath": "link:packages/kbn-datemath"
However, if you want to use this from a Kibana plugin, you need to account for the relative location of the Kibana repo, so it would instead be:
"@kbn/datemath": "link:../../kibana/packages/kbn-datemath"
How all of this works is described in more detail in the
@kbn/pm
docs.
Creating a new package
Create a new sub-folder. The name of the folder should mirror the name
in the
package's package.json
. E.g. if the name is @kbn/datemath
the folder name
should be kbn-datemath
.
All new packages should use the @kbn
namespace, and should be marked with
"private": true
.
Unit tests for a package
Currently there are two patterns used to test packages, one using Mocha and one using Jest. These patterns emerged out of convention and we'd like to make them more similar to each other in the near future.
1. Mocha
Today a package can follow the pattern of having a __tests__
directory in each source code directory of a package which contains the tests for that module. These are usually run by Mocha.
If a package's tests should be run with Mocha, you'll have to opt-in to run them by appending the package's test file pattern(s) to Kibana's tasks/config/simplemocha.js
file. These will then be run by the unit test runner.
yarn test
oryarn grunt test
runs all unit tests.node scripts/mocha
runs all Mocha tests.
2. Jest
A package can also follow the pattern of having .test.js
files as siblings of the source code files, and these run by Jest.
A package using the .test.js
naming convention will have those tests automatically picked up by Jest and run by the unit test runner, currently mapped to the Kibana test
script in the root package.json
.
yarn test
oryarn grunt test
runs all unit tests.node scripts/jest
runs all Jest tests in Kibana.
Each package can also specify its own test
script in the package's package.json
, for cases where you'd prefer to run the tests from the local package directory.
