mockzilla-webextension is a mocking toolkit for web-extensions leveraging the power of TypeScript to enhance your jest experience.
This is a Work In Progress! The API might change before version 1.0 is released.
- Combines @types/webextension-polyfill with mockzilla to create a deep mock of the browser object.
- Adds an additional function mockEvent to enable special support for webextension events.
- Integrates with jest
- Typesafety and code-completion out of the box.
- Deadsimple to use
- Liberal license: zlib/libpng
npm i -D mockzilla-webextension

This is an example of how a mocking with mockzilla-webextension looks like:
describe("Web-Extension Helpers", () => {
describe("getActiveTabs()", () => {
it("should return active tabs", async () => {
const tabs: any[] = [{id: 1}, {id: 2}];
mockBrowser.tabs.query.expect({ active: true }).andResolve(tabs);
expect(await getActiveTabs()).toEqual(tabs);
});
});
describe("onBeforeRedirect()", () => {
it("should register a listener and return a handle to remove the listener again", () => {
const listener = jest.fn();
mockBrowser.webRequest.onBeforeRedirect.addListener.expect(listener, expect.anything());
const removeListener = onBeforeRedirect(listener);
mockBrowser.webRequest.onBeforeRedirect.removeListener.expect(listener);
removeListener();
});
});
});
