Noticed that snapshot tests were passing where they should be failing in CI (#15730 (comment))
If a test is retried, the snapshot expectation indices will start where the previous attempt left off. This leads to
jest-snapshot
treating the second attempt as a "new" snapshot which we automatically treat as passing because of theupdateSnapshot: 'new'
setting.This PR uses
updateSnapshot: 'none'
by default so that CI will never accidentally pass. This means we have to use-u
to set an initial snapshot for new tests, but that seems like a small price to pay.However, mocha will only report the last failure attempt if a test is retried, which will now by a "snapshot does not exist" failure instead of a helpful snapshot diff. To fix this, this PR also resets the snapshot state between each test.
