Support of Angular

[dirk-ecker]

Does Vitest support angular component testing?
Would be really nice.
How is it done?

Jasmine, Jest, Vitest — all these libraries are mostly test runners, and in case of Angular, neither of those is used to actually bootstrap the app. That it, you use the same approach as you do with Jasmine (TestBed, ComponentFixture, etc.), but replace its specific expect, it, spyOn, etc. with the ones of Vitest.

I myself just started looking into the possibility of this, so I can't provide examples. Two links I've found that might be helpful:

• https://github.com/thymikee/jest-preset-angular — here's how you would test your components with Jest. Do this, then follow Vitest's migration guide.
• https://analogjs.org/docs/features/testing/vitest — Analog is a meta-framework for Angular, but this setup could be used for Vanilla Angular too, I suppose

That's correct. You can use the guide to set up Vitest with a vanilla Angular application also
