this is a very straight forward way to explain testing with supertest. Thanks
Exactly what i needed in my life right now. Thanks!
Just did a random search and came across this video. Very good, Sam!Keep up the good work!
Thanks for keeping it simple and clean. 🚀
It was just what I was looking for. Thank you very much for the clear explanation.
That was very quick and simple explanation and use case of Jest and SuperTest, thanks man!.
Thank you so much for the text version ♥
Awesome, simple to understand. Simplicity in explanation. Thanks
THANK YOU for doing the pseudo code steps!
I just started to create my first nodejs boilerplate with jest test and this video was very helpful to setup things

You are welcome 🤗
If you get a request not defined error, make sure to try: `const request = require('supertest')` instead of `const supertest = require('supertest')`. Other than that this is great!

Great content, thank you
Great stuff!

Instant like after that first tip about the ports. That was my issue
great job
Hi, this was great video to watch while creating my first tests for my API endpoints. It does however make changes to my actual database. Would you make a video on mongodb-memory-server please?
Nice video, thanks :)
Have been trying to fix supertest with async app. Got fixed after watching this video
Thanks a lot for this! Would appreciate it if you could make a video regarding setup for this kind of test suite with Typescript-Express
You are so awesome!
Sam, great video! Thank you for contributing to the community... I am having a problem trying to reproduce the core of what you explained. For some reason the test fails saying that the request received a 404 but it should be a 403 (returned correctly testing it via postman). I think it has something to do with the routes and passing the app object to the request function of supertest... Any comments would be appreciated. Thank you in advance!
Lord! I cannot say thank you and enough

In a user registration flow that involves sending verification emails, i'm getting this type of error: thrown: "Exceeded timeout of 5000 ms for a test. I guess it's because of the email sender request and response but how do i fix this?
i owe you a beer mate
hey great video but i wan to know how not to affect you actual DB during test?
Thank you for the tutorial. I'm a bit confused with one thing though, when was supertest ever used? wasn't everything here contained in jest?

How to overcome "Jest did not exit one second after the test run has completed."? Now I'm facing this problem. Did you solve that?
To use `import express from 'express'`, are you using the latest node version or by importing ESM ?

He wrote "type": "module" at the package.json file. It tells node.js to use ECMAScript modules instead of a default CommonJS
where do we use jest here ?
Can we get video on with middleware supertest
Dude, I hope I can repay you someday🎉

Why does not work only writing npm test for this. I spent about 2 hours to solve this problem but I don't know why do we use "test": "NODE_OPTIONS=--experimental-vm-modules jest" code
thanks
