How to test a component which is built with styled component - reactjs

Question

I'm new to React testing and with Jest and Enzyme.
I'm trying to learn how to use a TDD approach first and due to that, I'm building my tests before starting coding.
What I did was to create a sample app in React and I installed Enzyme dependencies and then I wrote the test:
import { shallow } from "enzyme";
import React from "react";
import AppLayout from "./AppLayout";
import { ContentLayout } from "./styles";
it("renders <AppLayout /> component", () => {
const wrapper = shallow(<AppLayout />);
expect(wrapper.find(ContentLayout)).to.have.lengthOf(1);
});
Then I built the component which contains a styled component called ContentLayout
import React from "react";
import { ContentLayout } from "./styles";
const AppLayout = () => {
return (
<>
<ContentLayout>
<h1>HELLO</h1>
</ContentLayout>
</>
);
};
export default AppLayout;
I'm unable yo make the test pass as what I got was the next error:
TypeError: Cannot read property 'have' of undefined
I would like to learn how shoulæd be the practice to test this kind of component and what rules to follow in general when I start a project from scratch with TDD in mind.
The AppLayout is called then in App.js
import React from "react";
import AppLayout from "./Components/AppLayout";
function App() {
return <AppLayout />;
}
export default App;

You should use .toHaveLength(number) matchers of expect in jestjs.
expect(wrapper.find(ContentLayout)).toHaveLength(1);
For nested components, there are two strategies generally:
Shallow Rendering API
Shallow rendering is useful to constrain yourself to test a component as a unit, and to ensure that your tests aren't indirectly asserting the behavior of child components.
This means we don't want to render the nested component(ContentLayout), we only test the behavior(lifecycle methods, event handlers, data fetching, condition render, etc.) of the parent component(AppLayout).
Full Rendering API (mount(...))
Full DOM rendering is ideal for use cases where you have components that may interact with DOM APIs or need to test components that are wrapped in higher order components.
