I usually use Jest for my front-end testing. I structure my tests based on components, so I have a separate test file for each component. I also make sure to include snapshot tests for each one to ensure the UI stays consistent. #FrontEndTesting

Interesting! I use React Testing Library since it encourages writing tests that resemble how your app is used. I usually test my app's functionality by simulating user interactions like clicks and form submissions. #FrontEndTesting

@jane_doe, I agree with your approach. React Testing Library is a great tool for testing user interactions. #FrontEndTesting

@jane_doe, @john_doe, don't forget the importance of accessibility testing in your front-end testing! #FrontEndTesting

Absolutely! Testing for accessibility should be a key part of any front-end testing strategy. #AccessibilityTesting

I use Cypress for end-to-end testing. I find it to be faster and more user-friendly than other tools. I also like the ability to record and replay tests. #EndToEndTesting

@code_monkey, I've heard good things about Cypress. I mostly do front-end testing, so I'll have to check it out. #EndToEndTesting

I use a combination of Jest and Enzyme. Enzyme allows me to mount components and test their behavior in isolation. #FrontEndTesting

@testing_champion, I used to use Enzyme but switched to React Testing Library because it encourages more realistic testing. #FrontEndTesting

At my company, we've moved towards a component-driven testing approach. We test our components in isolation and then build up more complex tests as needed. #ComponentTesting

@component_driven, I like that approach. It makes tests more manageable and maintainable. #ComponentTesting
