Run Jest Tests

Quick Reference

npx nx <target> <project> -- --runTestsByPath <relative-path>

| Component | How to Determine | |-----------|-----------------| | <target> | test-local:jest:run if path contains /local/, otherwise test:jest:run | | <project> | Use @nx-project-mapping skill to get project name | | <relative-path> | Path relative to project root, not repo root |

Workflow

  1. Use @nx-project-mapping to get the project name and root
  2. Strip the project root prefix from the file path to get the relative path
  3. Choose target: test-local:jest:run for /local/ paths, test:jest:run otherwise
  4. Run the command

Examples

| File Path | Project | Relative Path | Command | |-----------|---------|---------------|---------| | commons-packages/backend/__tests__/services/member.spec.ts | @commons/backend | __tests__/services/member.spec.ts | npx nx test:jest:run @commons/backend -- --runTestsByPath __tests__/services/member.spec.ts | | packages/athena/__tests__/local/workflow.spec.ts | @cityblock/athena | __tests__/local/workflow.spec.ts | npx nx test-local:jest:run @cityblock/athena -- --runTestsByPath __tests__/local/workflow.spec.ts |

Running Multiple Files

Same project, same target—pass multiple paths:

npx nx test:jest:run @commons/backend -- --runTestsByPath __tests__/a.spec.ts __tests__/b.spec.ts

Running All Tests for a Project

Omit --runTestsByPath to run all tests:

npx nx test:jest:run @commons/backend

Console Output (Debugging)

By default, console output is captured and only shown on failure. For live output:

COMMONS_TESTING_LOG_LEVEL=live npx nx test:jest:run <project> -- --runTestsByPath <path>

Log levels: error (default) | warn | info | live

Watch Mode

For development, add --watch:

npx nx test:jest:run @commons/backend -- --runTestsByPath __tests__/my.spec.ts --watch

Troubleshooting

| Issue | Solution | |-------|----------| | EPERM errors | Run with sandbox disabled (permission issues with npm/node modules) | | Test not found | Verify path is relative to project root, not repo root | | /local/ tests not running | Use test-local:jest:run target instead of test:jest:run |
