Shallow Rendering API

useful to constrain yourself to testing a component as a unit
ensures that your tests aren't indirectly asserting on behavior of child components.

Static Rendering API

Use enzyme's render function to generate HTML from your React tree, and analyze the resulting HTML structure.

Full Rendering API

Full DOM rendering is ideal for use cases where you have components that may interact with DOM APIs or need to test components that are wrapped in higher order components.
Full DOM rendering requires that a full DOM API be available at the global scope.
