Add typings for the use with TypeScript

[InExtremaRes]

Well, I think there is no much to say. At this time react-testing-library has a file for typings.

Is there any plans to add some for this project?

Best regards.

Yes

Oh, thank you. I was looking for a file or an issue in this project and never thought to look there.

[maddijoyce]

Yep, I'm working on this at the moment, I'll be updating soon.

[InExtremaRes]

I am sorry. Will it include types for the jest-dom custom matchers?

[maddijoyce]

At this stage, I haven't but I can look into it.

Here are some tips for augment jest namespace with the matcher's types. I guess the typings could go that way and do the merge declaration when importing (but I'm not very familiar with namespaces augmentation).

Actually, regarding jest-dom and typescript, I was thinking that there must be something better to be done than what's described in the README of that repo. I attempted to do something here and would greatly appreciate the review of someone here more knowledgeable of typescript, before I merge it.

Will it include types for the jest-dom custom matchers?

Update about that: jest-dom should be typescript ready, AFAICT. At the very least it's been improved from what was previously referenced above (which required users to do something on their projects to take advantage of jest-dom + typescript, and that's not longer the case). However, any suggestions to improve on that is welcome.

Doesn't this library has typings already? I think this issue can be closed.
