Jest support

Track Jest test names, files, describe groups, todo markers, and parameterised patterns.

Updated 2026-06-19

Detection

Jest projects are detected from jest.config.ts, jest.config.js, jest.config.mjs, jest.config.cjs, jest.config.json, package dependencies such as jest and @jest/globals, and matching test-file conventions.

Parsed information

Test Chronicle records test names, file paths, describe groups, line numbers, todo markers, and parameterised patterns from test.each, it.each, and common loop-generated definitions.

Mixed repositories

Jest can be tracked alongside other supported JavaScript frameworks in one repository. Use framework directory overrides when Jest and Vitest, Playwright, or Cypress files share broad naming conventions.
