React Test-driven Development: From User Stories to Production
Employing a test-driven development (TDD) approach in React projects tends to be straightforward, especially with the aid of Jest and Enzyme. However, there are a few things to look out for.
In this article, Toptal JavaScript Developer Dave Hyungmok Lee demonstrates his React TDD process, from epics and user stories to development and production.

Test-driven React.js Development: React.js Unit Testing with Enzyme and Jest
Any piece of code that has no tests is said to be legacy code according to Michael Feathers. Therefore, one of the best ways to avoid creating legacy code is using test-driven development (TDD).
While there are many tools available to create unit tests in JavaScript, in this post, we will use Jest and Enzyme to create a React.js component with basic functionality using TDD.
