Introducción a React Native Testing Library

¿Estás satisfecho con tus suites de pruebas? Si dijiste que no, no estás solo, la mayoría de los desarrolladores no lo están. Y hacer pruebas en React Native es más difícil que en la mayoría de las plataformas. ¿Cómo puedes escribir pruebas en JavaScript cuando el código JS y nativo están tan entrelazados? ¿Y qué diablos se supone que debes hacer con esa persistente advertencia de act()? Ante estos desafíos, algunos equipos nunca logran avanzar en las pruebas de su aplicación de React Native, y otros terminan con pruebas que no parecen ayudar y solo requieren tiempo adicional para mantener.


Pero no tiene que ser así. React Native Testing Library (RNTL) es una excelente biblioteca para pruebas de componentes, y con el modelo mental adecuado puedes usarla para implementar pruebas de bajo costo y alto valor. En este taller de tres horas aprenderás las herramientas, técnicas y principios que necesitas para implementar pruebas que te ayudarán a lanzar tu aplicación de React Native con confianza. Saldrás con una visión clara del objetivo de tus pruebas de componentes y con técnicas que te ayudarán a superar cualquier obstáculo que se interponga en ese objetivo.

aprenderás:

- Los diferentes tipos de pruebas en React Native, y dónde encajan las pruebas de componentes

- Un modelo mental para pensar en las entradas y salidas de los componentes que pruebas

- Opciones para seleccionar elementos de texto, imagen y código nativo para verificar e interactuar con ellos

- El valor de las simulaciones y por qué no se deben evitar

- Los desafíos con la asincronía en las pruebas de RNTL y cómo manejarlos

- Opciones para manejar funciones y componentes nativos en tus pruebas de JavaScript


Requisitos previos:

- Familiaridad con la construcción de aplicaciones con React Native

- Experiencia básica en la escritura de pruebas automatizadas con Jest u otro framework de pruebas unitarias

- No necesitas experiencia previa con React Native Testing Library

- Configuración de la máquina: Node 16.x o 18.x, Yarn, ser capaz de crear y ejecutar con éxito una nueva aplicación Expo siguiendo las instrucciones en https://docs.expo.dev/get-started/create-a-new-app/

Introducing FlashList: Let's build a performant React Native list all together
Top Content
WorkshopFree
In this workshop you’ll learn why we created FlashList at Shopify and how you can use it in your code today. We will show you how to take a list that is not performant in FlatList and make it performant using FlashList with minimum effort. We will use tools like Flipper, our own benchmarking code, and teach you how the FlashList API can cover more complex use cases and still keep a top-notch performance.You will know:- Quick presentation about what FlashList, why we built, etc.- Migrating from FlatList to FlashList- Teaching how to write a performant list- Utilizing the tools provided by FlashList library (mainly the useBenchmark hook)- Using the Flipper plugins (flame graph, our lists profiler, UI & JS FPS profiler, etc.)- Optimizing performance of FlashList by using more advanced props like `getType`- 5-6 sample tasks where we’ll uncover and fix issues together- Q&A with Shopify team

Detox 101: How to write stable end-to-end tests for your React Native application
Top Content
WorkshopFree
Compared to unit testing, end-to-end testing aims to interact with your application just like a real user. And as we all know it can be pretty challenging. Especially when we talk about Mobile applications.
Tests rely on many conditions and are considered to be slow and flaky. On the other hand - end-to-end tests can give the greatest confidence that your app is working. And if done right - can become an amazing tool for boosting developer velocity.
Detox is a gray-box end-to-end testing framework for mobile apps. Developed by Wix to solve the problem of slowness and flakiness and used by React Native itself as its E2E testing tool.
Join me on this workshop to learn how to make your mobile end-to-end tests with Detox rock.
Prerequisites- iOS/Android: MacOS Catalina or newer- Android only: Linux- Install before the workshop

Effective Detox Testing
Workshop
So you’ve gotten Detox set up to test your React Native application. Good work! But you aren’t done yet: there are still a lot of questions you need to answer. How many tests do you write? When and where do you run them? How do you ensure there is test data available? What do you do about parts of your app that use mobile APIs that are difficult to automate? You could sink a lot of effort into these things—is the payoff worth it?
In this three-hour workshop we’ll address these questions by discussing how to integrate Detox into your development workflow. You’ll walk away with the skills and information you need to make Detox testing a natural and productive part of day-to-day development.
Table of contents:
- Deciding what to test with Detox vs React Native Testing Library vs manual testing- Setting up a fake API layer for testing- Getting Detox running on CI on GitHub Actions for free- Deciding how much of your app to test with Detox: a sliding scale- Fitting Detox into you local development workflow
Prerequisites
- Familiarity with building applications with React Native- Basic experience with Detox- Machine setup: a working React Native CLI development environment including either Xcode or Android Studio

Deploying React Native Apps in the Cloud
WorkshopFree
Deploying React Native apps manually on a local machine can be complex. The differences between Android and iOS require developers to use specific tools and processes for each platform, including hardware requirements for iOS. Manual deployments also make it difficult to manage signing credentials, environment configurations, track releases, and to collaborate as a team.
Appflow is the cloud mobile DevOps platform built by Ionic. Using a service like Appflow to build React Native apps not only provides access to powerful computing resources, it can simplify the deployment process by providing a centralized environment for managing and distributing your app to multiple platforms. This can save time and resources, enable collaboration, as well as improve the overall reliability and scalability of an app.
In this workshop, you’ll deploy a React Native application for delivery to Android and iOS test devices using Appflow. You’ll also learn the steps for publishing to Google Play and Apple App Stores. No previous experience with deploying native applications is required, and you’ll come away with a deeper understanding of the mobile deployment process and best practices for how to use a cloud mobile DevOps platform to ship quickly at scale.

Building Cross-Platform Component Libraries for Web and Native with React
Top Content
Building products for multiple platforms such as web and mobile often requires separate code-based despite most of the components being identical in look and feel. Is there a way where we could use shared React component library on different platforms and save time? In this presentation I'll demonstrate one way to build truly cross-platform component library with a unique approach of using React & React Native in combination.
