Redux

In this course, you will take a deep dive into Redux, an open-source JavaScript library for managing application state.

You will start by running through what Redux is, general concepts, and basic implementation. With the basics out of the way, you will begin working on building a recipe book application, adding more bells and whistles to it as the course progresses. You will learn to create a Redux store, how to work with middleware, state management, error handling, testing, and a whole lot more.

By the end, you will have advanced knowledge of one the most popular libraries among React and Angular developers. You will have the skills to create highly performant and consistent.

The Ultimate Guide to Redux



To avoid duplicating the test setup before every `it()` clause, we can use Jest’s `beforeEach()` method to combine the setup in one place:

~~~~~~~
describe('sample middleware', () => {
  let next, dispatch, getState, middleware;
  
  // using beforeEach
  beforeEach(() => {
    next       = jest.fn();
    dispatch   = jest.fn();
    getState   = jest.fn();
    middleware = sampleMiddleware({ dispatch, getState })(next);
  });

  it('should process action', () => {
    const sampleAction = { type: 'SAMPLE_ACTION' };

    // pass sampleAction through the middleware
    middleware(sampleAction);

    // test
    expect(next.mock.calls).toEqual([[sampleAction]]);
  };
};
~~~~~~~

Our middleware will be rebuilt before each test using this structure. All the mocked functions will be reset, keeping the testing code itself as short as possible.

Learn to simplify the middleware test structure from the previous lesson.
