"Jest is a good and easy to go unit testing framework"
What do you like best about Jest?

Jest is a testing unit framework for Java - an open source software, a very handful expeirence using its application. It majorly helps in unit testing and acceptance testing the client side's web applications, just that the source code should be available in Javacript. Also, the way things has been explained in their application is commendable, makes it very clear and explainable at once. Lastly, the documentation available on their application is appreciable, highly helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jest?

Jest application needs to gear up when it comes to load a bigger code, because it sometimes hang in between or takes a longer time, which makes it difficult to continue further. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable Testing Framework"
What do you like best about Jest?

Jest testing framework perfectly suits my needs. The auto-mocking feature is quite handy although there is room, for improvement. it may have some limitations and can be slower for projects it is still effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jest?

It offers restricted choices when it comes to test configuration and can be challenging to integrate. There are instances when the auto mocking feature in Jest can result in positives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Testing Framework"
What do you like best about Jest?

I like Jest so much because it provides an awesome experience when writing tests. I like so much the "expect" function, the assertion methods and the watch mode. I used Jest with the arrange-act-assert pattern, it was great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jest?

I had issues dealing with mocking when I worked with Jest. I am not sure if it is complicated or if I particularly struggled with this. I also dislike the default configuration for typescript. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
