Unit Testing Netlify Functions

[chiubaca]

Hi Netlify Community,

I’m posting to ask if anyone has any tips and trick or links to resources to help me understand some good patterns for unit testing Netlify Functions.

I’m currently trying to use a library called lambda-tester with ts-jest, but its proving to be quite challenging!

hi there, there is some information in this support guide - if you have specific questions we are happy to advise

[Support Guide] Testing your Netlify builds

Fortunately, Netlify’s build system and Deploy Previews can help make testing your application easier! I think most testing can fit into three categories: unit testing - most important during a cycle of active development, but can also be run at build time. This is more often than not a run-your-code-and-look-at-results test…
