Simple tests fails

testing
1

Can anyone tell me why this tests fails? I meant, it passes when it should fail.

const { describe, it } = global;
import { Factory } from 'meteor/dburles:factory';
import React from 'react';
import { shallow } from 'enzyme';
import chai, {expect} from 'chai';
import matcher from 'chai-react-element';
chai.use(matcher);
// import { chai } from 'meteor/practicalmeteor:chai';

class SimpleTest extends React.PureComponent {
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        goodbye
      </div>
    );
  }
}

describe('SimpleTest', () => {
  it('should render', () => {
    // const todo = Factory.build('todo', { text: 'testing', checked: false });
    const simpleTest = shallow(<SimpleTest />);
    expect(simpleTest).to.have.text('hello world');
  });
});

using https://github.com/producthunt/chai-enzyme works!

Cool, seems fairly simple the way you are doing your test.

Could you post the correction to your code that works?
And also how you referenced const { describe, it } = global;

Any more details would be awesome! Thanks!

Correction

const { describe, it } = global;
import { Factory } from 'meteor/dburles:factory';
import React from 'react';
import { shallow } from 'enzyme';
import chai, {expect} from 'chai';
**import chaiEnzyme from 'chai-enzyme'**
**chai.use(chaiEnzyme());**
// import { chai } from 'meteor/practicalmeteor:chai';

class SimpleTest extends React.PureComponent {
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        goodbye
      </div>
    );
  }
}

describe('SimpleTest', () => {
  it('should render', () => {
    // const todo = Factory.build('todo', { text: 'testing', checked: false });
    const simpleTest = shallow(<SimpleTest />);
    expect(simpleTest).to.have.text('hello world');
  });
});

I am defining:
const { describe, it } = global;

In case I want to run the test using mocha from npm.
