Shifting from Jest to Vitest

[vhscom]

https://github.com/nickbreaton/vitest-svelte-kit makes it deadly simple to get set-up with https://vitest.dev and start running unit tests. Will you consider shifting away from Jest to Vitest as the library matures? It seems there's an opportunity to shed some baggage given Jest was built around React and Vitest has a more focused integration with Vite.

Here's a migration guide: https://vitest.dev/guide/migration.html#migrating-from-jest

Yeah, I'm definitely excited about Vitest. I spent maybe an hour last month trying to migrate this project to use it but was unsuccessful; I couldn't get the import resolution to work correctly. I ultimately gave up since there's not really much benefit to migrating (the current setup works just fine) but I might revisit once Vitest matures some more.

Thanks for the repository link, I may give that a shot the next time I try this (or if I try in a personal project).

Awesome. I just submitted a request against kit so if there's any movement on that I imagine integration will become easier and the rough edges smoothed out sooner: sveltejs/kit#4143

I opened a similar one for svelte-add here: svelte-add/svelte-add#191
