## Testing
There is a setup for writing unit tests using [`Jest`](https://jestjs.io/). To run the test suite you can run
```BASH
npm run test
```
or in watch mode
```BASH
npm run test:watch
```
Due to the Obsidian source code not being open-source Jest's more common mocking patterns don't work, such as `jest.mock('obsidian')`. Instead we use [Jest's manual mocks](https://jestjs.io/docs/manual-mocks) by writing a partial mock module in [`__mocks__/obsidian.js`](./__mocks__/obsidian.js). Note that it does not contain a full mock of `obsidian` and you might need to extend it to test your plugin. If you do, please consider adding your extension to this repo.
