Test your Vue Components with Vitest and Nightwatch

Step 0: Create a new project with Vite

Choose Vue and TypeScript when prompted below:

npm init vite@latest

Step 1: Install and Configure Vitest

npm i -D vitest @vitest/ui @vitest/plugin-vue

Since vitest is based on vite, you can use the same configuration file. Edit the vite.config.ts file to add the following. You'll also need to add a reference to Vitest types using a triple slash command at the top of your config file.

/// <reference types="vitest" />

import { defineConfig } from 'vite'

export default defineConfig({
  test: {
    /* for example, use global to avoid globals imports (describe, test, expect): */
    // globals: true,
  },
})

Next, edit your package.json to add the test scripts:

{
  "scripts": {
     "test": "vitest",
     "test:ui": "vitest --ui",
     "test:run": "vitest run"
  }
}
