Testing Vue+Apollo: 2020 edition

Almost two years ago I started my dev.to journey with the article about unit testing Vue + Apollo combination. During this time I had multiple requests about mocking an Apollo client and including it to the equation - just like React does with @apollo/react-testing library. This would allow us to test queries and mutations hooks as well as cache updates. There were many attempts from my side to mock a client and finally I am ready to share some examples.

Watch with @vue/reactivity

const state = reactive({
  info: {
    name: 'Anthony',
  }
})

watch(state, () => { console.log('changed!') }, { deep: true })

state.info.name = 'Anthony Fu'
// changed!

As you probably know, the things I excited most in Vue 3 are the Composition API and the reactivity system. With the Composition API we can reuse logics and states across components or even apps. What’s better? The underhood reactivity system is decoupled from Vue, which means you can use it almost everywhere, even without UI.

SSR Support for AWS Amplify JavaScript Libraries

// pages/_app.js
import { Amplify } from "aws-amplify";
import awsExports from "../src/aws-exports";
Amplify.configure({ ...awsExports, ssr: true });

Modern web frameworks like Next.js and Nuxt.js combine hybrid static site generation (SSG) and server-side rendering (SSR) along with traditional client rendering to enable developers to build fast, modern sites while also providing a great developer experience. These technologies continue to grow in popularity as developers and customers increasingly take advantage of their features like API routes, incremental static regeneration, code-splitting, and good SEO.
