How to test react-router with enzyme - reactjs

Question

I am using enzyme+mocha+chai to test my react-redux project. Enzyme provides shallow to test component behavior. But I didn't find a way to test the router. I am using react-router as below:
<Router history={browserHistory}>
...
<Route path="nurse/authorization" component{NurseAuthorization}/>
...
</Route>
I want to test this route nurse/authorization refer to NurseAuthorization component. How to test it in reactjs project?
EDIT1
I am using react-router as the router framework.

Answer 1

You can wrap your router inside a component in order to test it.
Routes.jsx
export default props => (
<Router history={browserHistory}>
...
<Route path="nurse/authorization" component{NurseAuthorization}/>
...
</Route>
)
index.js
import Routes from './Routes.jsx';
...
ReactDOM.render(<Routes />, document.getElementById('root'));
Then you have to shallow render your Routes component, and you are able to create an object map to check the correspondance between path and related component.
Routes.test.js
import { shallow } from 'enzyme';
import { Route } from 'react-router';
import Routes from './Routes.jsx';
import NurseAuthorization from './NurseAuthorization.jsx';
it('renders correct routes', () => {
const wrapper = shallow(<Routes />);
const pathMap = wrapper.find(Route).reduce((pathMap, route) => {
const routeProps = route.props();
pathMap[routeProps.path] = routeProps.component;
return pathMap;
}, {});
// { 'nurse/authorization' : NurseAuthorization, ... }
expect(pathMap['nurse/authorization']).toBe(NurseAuthorization);
});
EDIT
In case you want to additionally handle the case of render props:
const pathMap = wrapper.find(Route).reduce((pathMap, route) => {
const routeProps = route.props();
if (routeProps.component) {
pathMap[routeProps.path] = routeProps.component;
} else if (routeProps.render) {
pathMap[routeProps.path] = routeProps.render({}).type;
}
return pathMap;
}, {});
It will work only in case you render directly the component you want to test (without extra wrapper).
<Route path="nurse/authorization" render{() => <NurseAuthorization />}/>

I had my paths defined in another file for the dynamic router, so I am also testing that all the routes I am rendering as Routes are defined in my paths.js constants:
it('Routes should only have paths declared in src/routing/paths.js', () => {
const isDeclaredInPaths = (element, index, array) => {
return pathsDefined.indexOf(array[index]) >= 0;
}
expect(routesDefined.every(isDeclaredInPaths)).to.be.true;
});

This will only pass if the component is rendered successfully:
It works with Redux and react-router including hooks.
import React from "react";
import { expect } from "chai";
import { mount } from "enzyme";
import { MemoryRouter, Route } from "react-router-dom";
import { createMockStore } from "redux-test-utils";
import { Provider } from "react-redux";
...
describe("<MyComponent />", () => {
it("renders the component", () => {
let props = {
index: 1,
value: 1
};
let state = {};
const wrapper = mount(
<Provider store={createMockStore(state)}>
<MemoryRouter initialEntries={["/s/parameter1"]}>
<Route path="/s/:camera">
<MyComponent {...props} />
</Route>
</MemoryRouter>
</Provider>
);
expect(wrapper.find(ProcessedFrames.WrappedComponent)).to.have.lengthOf(1);
});
});

Tested for react-router-dom v6
Based on #Freez 's answer, I implemented a recursive function that returns a correct url map even if you are using nested routes.
You just need to add this once in setupTests.js for jest tests to be able to use it in any test:
function recursiveGetPathMap(route, parentPath){
let pathMap = {};
const routeProps = route.props();
let path = parentPath + (parentPath.length == 0 || parentPath[parentPath.length-1] == '/' ? '' : '/') + routeProps.path;
pathMap[path] = routeProps.element.type;
route.children(Route).forEach(el=>{
pathMap = {...pathMap, ...recursiveGetPathMap(el, path)};
});
return pathMap;
}
global.getPathMap = (wrapper)=>{
let pathMap = {};
wrapper.find(Routes).children(Route).forEach(el =>{
pathMap = {...pathMap, ...recursiveGetPathMap(el, "")};
});
return pathMap;
}
Example:
App.js
...
<Routes>
<Route path="/" element={<Layout/>}>
<Route path="users" element={<Users/>}>
<Route path=":name" element={<Profile/>}/>
</Route>
</Route>
</Routes>
...
App.test.js
...
it('whatever', ()=>{
const component = <App/>;
const wrapper = shallow(component);
const pathMap = getPathMap(wrapper);
expect(pathMap['/']).toBe(Layout);
expect(pathMap['/users']).toBe(Users);
expect(pathMap['/users/:name']).toBe(Profile);
});
...
The output of console.log(pathMap) in that example is:
{
'/': [Function: Layout],
'/users': [Function: Users],
'/users/:name': [Function: Profile]
}
Note that if you have a route without path (index route):
<Route index element={<SomeComponent/>}/>
the route will be like /somepath/somepath/undefined
