Figuring out how to mock the window size changing

问题:

So basically when the component mounts, I have an event listener listen for resize events. It toggles the isMobileView state and then passes it into the children as a prop. So it's imperative that this works and is tested. I'm fairly new to testing and I'm trying to figure out a way I can write a test that resizes the window and makes all the logic happen and test that it executed how it should.

Here is the code -

componentDidMount() {
    this.setMobileViewState()
    window.addEventListener('resize', this.setMobileViewState.bind(this));
}

setMobileViewState() {
    if(document.documentElement.clientWidth <= this.props.mobileMenuShowWidth) {
        this.setState({ isMobileView: true })
    } else {
        this.setState({ isMobileView: false })
    }
}

I know the code works, but I want to write a test for it. Basically just something that makes sure the state changes correctly.

Using Jest and Enzyme you can do the following. Jest has JSDOM baked in. In your tests Jest provides the window object and it is represented by global (I think that the default window.innerWidth set by Jest is 1024px):

test('Test something when the viewport changes.', () => {

    // Mount the component to test.
    const component = mount(<ComponentToTest/>);

    ...

    // Change the viewport to 500px.
    global.innerWidth = 500;

    // Trigger the window resize event.
    global.dispatchEvent(new Event('resize'));

    ...

    // Run your assertion.
});
