Remove the `unstable_` prefix from `createRemixStub`. After real-world experience, we're confident in the API and ready to commit to it.
* Note: This involves 1 small breaking change. The `<RemixStub remixConfigFuture>` prop has been renamed to `<RemixStub future>`

# `@remix-run/testing`

This package contains utilities to assist in unit testing portions of your Remix application. This is accomplished by mocking the Remix route modules/assets manifest output by the compiler and generating an in-memory React Router app via [createMemoryRouter][memory-router].

The general usage of this is to test components/hooks that rely on Remix hooks/components which you do not have the ability to cleanly mock (`useLoaderData`, `useFetcher`, etc.). While it can also be used for more advanced testing such as clicking links and navigating to pages, those are better suited for End to End tests via something like [Cypress][cypress] or [Playwright][playwright].

## Usage

To use `createRemixStub`, define your routes using React Router-like route objects, where you specify the `path`, `Component`, `loader`, etc. These are essentially mocking the nesting and exports of the route files in your Remix app:

```tsx
const RemixStub = createRemixStub([
{
path: "/",
Component: MyComponent,
loader() {
return json({ message: "hello" });
},
},
]);
```

Then you can render the `<RemixStub />` component and assert against it:

```tsx
render(<RemixStub />);
await waitFor(() =>
screen.findByText("Some rendered text")
);
```

## Example

Here's a full working example testing using [`jest`][jest] and [React Testing Library][rtl]:

```tsx
import { json } from "@remix-run/node";
import { useLoaderData } from "@remix-run/react";
import { createRemixStub } from "@remix-run/testing";
import {
render,
screen,
waitFor,
} from "@testing-library/react";
import * as React from "react";

test("renders loader data", async () => {
// ⚠️ This would usually be a component you import from your app code
function MyComponent() {
const data = useLoaderData() as { message: string };
return <p>Message: {data.message}</p>;
}

const RemixStub = createRemixStub([
{
path: "/",
Component: MyComponent,
loader() {
return json({ message: "hello" });
},
},
]);

render(<RemixStub />);

await waitFor(() => screen.findByText("Message: hello"));
});
```

# `createRemixStub`

This utility allows you to unit-test your own components that rely on Remix hooks/components by setting up a mocked set of routes:

```tsx
test("renders loader data", async () => {
const RemixStub = createRemixStub([
{
path: "/",
meta() {
/* ... */
},
links() {
/* ... */
},
Component: MyComponent,
ErrorBoundary: MyErrorBoundary,
action() {
/* ... */
},
loader() {
/* ... */
},
},
]);

render(<RemixStub />);

// Assert initial render
await waitFor(() => screen.findByText("..."));

// Click a button and assert a UI change
user.click(screen.getByText("button text"));
await waitFor(() => screen.findByText("..."));
});
```

If your loaders rely on the `getLoadContext` method, you can provide a stuibbed context via the second parameter to `createRemixStub`:

```tsx
const RemixStub = createRemixStub(
[
{
path: "/",
Component: MyComponent,
loader({ context }) {
return json({ message: context.key });
},
},
],
{ key: "value" }
);
```

The `<RemixStub>` component itself takes properties similar to React Router if you need to control the initial URL, history stack, hydration data, or future flags:

```tsx
// Test the app rendered at "/2" with 2 prior history stack entries
render(
<RemixStub
initialEntries={["/", "/1", "/2"]}
initialIndex={2}
/>
);

// Test the app rendered with initial loader data for the root route. When using
// this, it's best to give your routes their own unique IDs in your route definitions
render(
<RemixStub
hydrationData={{
loaderData: { root: { message: "hello" } },
}}
/>
);

// Test the app rendered with given future flags enabled
render(<RemixStub future={{ v3_coolFeature: true }} />);
```
