:snowflake: DEPRECATION NOTICE :snowflake:

Official TypeScript and Jest support has been added to Vue.js 2.x, which has changed considerably since this repository has been created. We recommend to start new projects with Vue CLI.

vue-typescript-jest

Jest preprocessor.js for Vue.js components (supporting html and pug) and TypeScript.

Usage

Install: npm install --save-dev vue-typescript-jest
This package does not declare any dependencies: install the preferred versions of TypeScript, Jest, Vue.js, and vueify. Cf. package.json for the versions used during development.
Add the following snippet to package.json (adapting testRegex to your project layout)

  "scripts": {
    "test": "jest"
  },
  "jest": {
    "transform": {
      ".*\\.(ts|vue)$": "<rootDir>/node_modules/vue-typescript-jest/preprocessor.js"
    },
    "moduleFileExtensions": [
      "ts",
      "js",
      "vue"
    ],
    "testRegex": "/test/.*\\.(ts|js)$",
    "coveragePathIgnorePatterns": [
      "/node_modules/",
      "/test/.*\\.(ts|js)$",
      "/.*\\.vue$"
    ]
  },

For Jest v16 (earlier versions not tested), use the following instead of transform

    "scriptPreprocessor": "<rootDir>/node_modules/vue-typescript-jest/preprocessor.js",

Make sure a suitable tsconfig.json is present to specify your required TypeScript compiler options
Write a test for a Vue.js component

/// <reference path='../node_modules/@types/jest/index.d.ts' />

import Vue = require('vue')
// see note about importing *.vue files
import CounterTs = require('./counter-ts.vue')

// basic unit testing
describe('counter-ts.vue', () => {
	it('should initialize correctly', () => {
		const vm = new Vue({
			el: document.createElement('div'),
			render: (h) => h(CounterTs),
		})
		expect(vm.$el.querySelector('div span').textContent).toBe('counter-ts')
		expect(vm.$el.querySelector('div span:nth-child(2)').textContent).toBe('1')
	})
})

// or use snapshot testing, e.g., with html2jade
function clickNthButton(el: HTMLElement, n: number) {
	(<HTMLButtonElement>el.querySelector('div button:nth-of-type(' + n + ')')).click()
}
import html2jade = require('html2jade')

describe('counter-ts.vue', () => {
	it('should just work', () => new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
		const vm = new Vue({
			el: document.createElement('div'),
			render: (h) => h(CounterTs),
		})
		clickNthButton(vm.$el, 1)
		clickNthButton(vm.$el, 3)
		clickNthButton(vm.$el, 2)
		Vue.nextTick( () => {
			html2jade.convertHtml(vm.$el.innerHTML, {bodyless: true}, (err: any, jade: string) => {
				expect(jade).toMatchSnapshot()
				resolve()
			})
		})
	}))
})

Use jest as usual, e.g., npm test -- --watch

Notes

This project looks for tsconfig.json starting in the directory of the source file and continuing up in the directory tree
Only the compilerOptions subtree of tsconfig.json is used
To use import with *.vue files in TypeScript code, cf. https://github.com/locoslab/vue-typescript-import-dts
To further simplify snapshot testing with Jest and html2jade, cf. https://github.com/locoslab/vue-jest-utils
To use TypeScript classes as Vue.js components, cf. https://github.com/locoslab/vue-typescript-component
Inline TypeScript code in a *.vue file is not supported. We prefer separate files to make use of existing IDE/editor and tooling support for TypeScript files. Instead, import the TypeScript module as follows

<template>
...
</template>
<script>
module.exports = require('./counter-ts.ts').default
</script>

Code coverage of *.vue files fails as the generated code contains a with statement that trips the babylon parser: use coveragePathIgnorePatterns as shown above to ignore the *.vue files
