use-swr-remote-mutation.test.tsx

Overview

This file contains a comprehensive suite of unit and integration tests for verifying the behavior of the useSWRMutation hook, a React hook from the SWR (stale-while-revalidate) library ecosystem. The useSWRMutation hook allows performing remote mutations (e.g., POST, PUT, DELETE requests) and optionally updating the SWR cache to reflect the mutation results.

The tests validate various aspects of useSWRMutation including:

These tests simulate UI interactions (e.g., clicking buttons) to trigger mutations and use assertions to check expected UI states, function calls, and cache updates. This ensures that useSWRMutation behaves correctly and integrates seamlessly with useSWR.

Detailed Explanations

Imports and Utilities

Test Suite: 'useSWR - remote mutation'

The test suite is organized into many individual it tests. Each test mounts a small React component that uses useSWRMutation (and sometimes useSWR), simulates user events, and asserts expected outcomes.

Key Tests and Their Explanations

1. Basic triggering and returning data

const { data, trigger } = useSWRMutation(key, () => 'data')

Usage example:

function Page() {
  const { data, trigger } = useSWRMutation('key', () => 'data');
  return <button onClick={() => trigger()}>{data || 'pending'}</button>;
}

2. Returning data from the trigger function

3. Verifying argument passing to mutation function

4. onSuccess callback

5. Configurable onSuccess per trigger

6. Error handling with onError and throwing

7. throwOnError: false disables throwing on error

8. isMutating state flag

9. Sharing cache with useSWR via populateCache

10. Preventing race conditions

11. Optimistic updates support

12. Resetting mutation state

13. Using the latest fetcher and config

14. Handling empty or missing keys

Example Usage

import useSWR from 'swr'
import useSWRMutation from 'swr/mutation'

function Profile() {
  const { data: profile } = useSWR('/api/profile')
  const { trigger, isMutating } = useSWRMutation('/api/profile', updateProfile)

  async function updateProfile(newData) {
    const res = await fetch('/api/profile', {
      method: 'POST',
      body: JSON.stringify(newData),
    })
    return res.json()
  }

  return (
    <div>
      <pre>{JSON.stringify(profile)}</pre>
      <button onClick={() => trigger({ name: 'New Name' })} disabled={isMutating}>
        Update Profile
      </button>
    </div>
  )
}
