New snapshot was not written. The update flag must be explicitly passed to write a new snapshot. This is likely because this test is run in a continuous integration (CI) environment in which snapshots are not written by default.

HI All,

I have a simple component for which I am trying to unit test with Jest snapshot and I am receiving below error.Can any one suggest how to fix it.

index.js

import React from ‘react’ import { FontAwesomeIcon } from ‘@fortawesome/react-fontawesome’ import { Button } from ‘reactstrap’

const CloseHistoryButton = ({ onClick }) => <div className="d-flex justify-content-end"> <Button color="danger" size="sm" onClick={onClick}> <FontAwesomeIcon icon="times" /> Close History </Button> </div>

export default CloseHistoryButton

CloseHistoryButton.test

import React from ‘react’ import ReactDOM from ‘react-dom’; import { shallow, mount, render } from ‘enzyme’; import { cleanup } from ‘@testing-library/react’; import renderer from ‘react-test-renderer’; import CloseHistoryButton from ‘…/CloseHistoryButton/index’; import registerIcons from ‘./…/…/…/…/icons/registerIcons’; import Enzyme from ‘enzyme’; import Adapter from ‘enzyme-adapter-react-16’; Enzyme.configure({ adapter: new Adapter() });

// automatically unmount and cleanup DOM after the test is finished. afterEach(cleanup); registerIcons(); test(‘renders correctly’, () => { const tree = renderer.create( <CloseHistoryButton /> ).toJSON(); expect(tree).toMatchSnapshot(); });

Error Log:

expect(received).toMatchSnapshot()

Just explicitly pass it in your CI configuration, like:

• yarn test – --coverage --updateSnapshot

[suyash-edstem]

–updateSnapshot

Thanks! it works for me
