ShallowWrapper::setState() can only be called on class components

Question

this test was passing before i using withSnackbar. but now it fails and i really don't know how to fix that. So any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Here is my export in the component:

export default withSnackbar(StoryApp)

And here is my test:

let story = {
  Title: "title 1",
  body: "body 1",
  UserEntityKey: "userEntityKey",
  Key: "storyKey"
}

afterEach(() => {
  // cleaning up the mess left behind the previous test
  MockAxios.reset();
});

test('Story deletes based on mocked backend response', async () => {
  window.confirm = jest.fn()
  window.confirm.mockReturnValue(1);

  let idToken = "asdf"

  MockAxios.delete.mockImplementationOnce(() =>
    Promise.resolve(story.Key)
  )

  const storyApp = shallow(<StoryApp />);

  storyApp.setState((prev) => {
    prev.data.push(story)
    return prev
  })

  // Test without idToken
  await storyApp.instance().deleteStory(story)
  expect(MockAxios.delete).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
  expect(storyApp.state().data.length).toEqual(1)

  // Test with idToken
  storyApp.setState((prev) => {
    prev.user = { idToken: idToken }
    return prev
  })
  await storyApp.instance().deleteStory(story)
  expect(MockAxios.delete).toHaveBeenCalledWith(apiUrl + '?key=' + story.Key, { headers: { 'Authorization': idToken } });
  expect(storyApp.state().data.length).toEqual(0)
})

And here is the output:

● Story deletes based on mocked backend response

Making original classes like StoryApp local harms the testability. Imported StoryApp is decorated with withSnackbar HOC and isn't class component.

A HOC should either expose original component that will be available, e.g. WrappedComponent property.

Or a module should export both decorated and original component:

export class StoryApp ...

export default withSnackbar(StoryApp)

This way it can be tested like:

import StoryApp, { StoryApp as OriginalStoryAppClass } from '...';
...
const wrapper = shallow(<StoryApp />);
const storyApp = wrapper.find(OriginalStoryAppClass).dive();
