Testing emit from $root

Any recommendations on testing functionality that depends on listening to events emitted via $root.$emit? Like you would via wrapper.vm.$root.$emit for example using vue-test-utils. Haven’t been able to find anything in the docs.

Thanks for a great library!

Let me know if this is a feature the library needs and I’ll send in a PR!

Can you just wrap the component?

Thank you! Can’t believe I didn’t think of this sooner. This was my solution:

it('should respond to root emit', function () {
    const Wrapper = {
      mounted () {
        this.$root.$emit('emit-to-test')
      },

      render (h) {
        return h('div', [ h(ComponentToTest) ])
      }
    }

    // ...assert stuff
})

I also noticed $on no longer exists in Vue 3, you might want to keep this in mind.

Thanks for the heads up!
