Testing Forge Custom UI components Using Jest

Hi Kankelshaku,
Whilst i’ve not gotten as far as CustomUI Jest testing procedure, but am interested in doing so and also face problems with both invoke from forge/bridge and api from forge/api being in the /static directory (hence here).
Did you see the recent post regarding Resolvers for CustomUI? 27 Jul 2021 - Direct product requests, CI upgrade support, and composable routes

(You may not need to use forge bridge if you want to access Confluence/Jira endpoints, and if the getText method is just returning a String you could try the following instead of the invoke:)

//Replace the invoke('getText'..) with the following:
let myInvoke = new ExtractedInvoke();
        return await myInvoke.getText();

Then a new file, named ‘ExtractedInvoke’ would be:

export class ExtractedInvoke {
    async getText() {
               //Whatever your 'getText' was doing here..
     }
}

export default ExtractedInvoke;

This workaround means you don’t need the forge/bridge import.
