Test Naming Standards

Test File Naming

• •Unit test files use .spec.ts suffix
• •E2E test files use .spec.ts suffix
• •Test file directory structure should mirror the source code directory structure

Test Case Naming

Test case naming format: should [expected behavior] [conditions/scenarios]

• •Use descriptive names that clearly indicate what is being tested
• •Use lowercase for the first letter
• •Avoid using "test" at the beginning of test names

Correct Examples:

it('should merge JSON files correctly - basic case', () => {
  // ...
})

it('should handle edge case: a has b does not', () => {
  // ...
})

Incorrect Examples:

// ❌ Incorrect: Unclear what is being tested
it('test merge', () => {
  // ...
})

// ❌ Incorrect: Not descriptive enough
it('merge', () => {
  // ...
})

Best Practices

1. •Be specific: Test names should clearly describe the expected behavior
2. •Include conditions: When testing edge cases, include the condition in the name
3. •Use lowercase: Start test names with lowercase letters
4. •Avoid "test" prefix: The framework already knows it's a test
