Hi Matti,
Jest Preview (github.com/nvh95/jest-preview) author here đź‘‹. Thank you very much for introducing Jest Preview on dev.to.

I am absolutely going to update and polish the docs after reading your feedback in your post, as well as looking at some other issues (fav.ico, automatic reload).

Jest Preview was born with a mission help frontend engineers lives easier, and help improving frontend application quality by encouraging them to write more tests.

Thank you very much.

P.S: If you guys have any issues while integrating with Jest Preview, please create an issue or reaching us on twitter @hung_dev or @JestPreview

Thank you for your kind words @rickvian. I already update the docs to make it less confusing for newcomers. I am working on the issue the snapshot does not “auto reload”, but I suspect it’s the issue with monorepo. I am also waiting for new feedback from you as well.

Please give it a try now. If your projects are open source, give me an url, I am more than happy to send a PR that integrate Jest Preview to yours. I believe you will love this library, the same way I Iove how my own library saves me a lot of time working with Jest.

Keep up the good work and thanks again :)
