How do I mock components in Jest with Vue Testing Library?

You can use the jest.mock function to mock components in your tests. For example, if you have a component called MyComponent, you can mock it like this: jest.mock('@/components/MyComponent.vue').

What if I want to mock a component with specific props?

You can create a mock implementation using jest.fn() to return a component that accepts props. For example: jest.mock('@/components/MyComponent.vue', () => ({ props: ['myProp'], template: '<div>{{ myProp }}</div>' })).

Can I also mock methods within the component?

Yes, you can mock methods by defining them in your mock implementation. For instance: jest.mock('@/components/MyComponent.vue', () => ({ methods: { myMethod: jest.fn() } })).

Are there any best practices for mocking in tests?

It's best to mock only what you need for your tests to keep them isolated and focused. Avoid over-mocking, as it can lead to tests that don't accurately reflect the behavior of your components.
