Article: Testing React components in Meteor

Hey Gang,

Thought I’d share my experience testing React components with Meteor tinytest and React.addons.TestUtils. I’d be happy to hear your feedback on the article / testing tips as well:

This is pretty amazing! The only thing I saw missing to get this to work was this. (Atleast I did not see being clearly expressed)

Package.onTest(function(api) {
  api.use('ecmascript');
  api.use([
    'react'
  ], 'client');
 api.use('nifty-package');
  api.addFiles('nifty-package-tests.jsx');
});

I had to add react explicitly to the testing block and make the tests file a jsx file. Other wise it would error trying to read the line

component = utils.renderIntoDocument(<CoolComponent/>);

Because it is not valid JS.

Thank you so much for putting this out there :smile:
