Unmount / destroy Component in jsdom test

rated 0 times [ 105] [ 1] / answers: 1 / hits: 23295 / 10 Years ago, sat, may 31, 2014, 12:00:00

Is there a way to unmount and garbage collect a React Component that was mounted using TestUtils.renderIntoDocument inside a jsdom test?

I'm trying to test something that happens on componentWillUnmount and TestUtils.renderIntoDocument doesn't return any DOM node to call React. unmountComponentAtNode on.

No, but you can simply use ReactDOM.render manually:

var container = document.createElement('div');

ReactDOM.render(<Component />, container);

// ...

ReactDOM.unmountComponentAtNode(container);

This is exactly what ReactTestUtils does anyway, so there's no reason not to do it this way if you need a reference to the container.
