MarkText Testing: E2E and Unit Testing for Markdown Editor Validation
The MarkText testing suite demonstrates a comprehensive approach to quality assurance, combining E2E testing with Playwright and unit testing using Jest. The test suite focuses on critical functionality like Markdown parsing compliance, electron accelerator key matching, and list indentation processing, ensuring both the application's UI behavior and core parsing capabilities meet specifications. Qodo Tests Hub provides developers with detailed insights into MarkText's testing patterns, making it easier to understand how E2E and unit tests are structured in a modern Electron application. Through the platform, developers can explore real-world examples of testing Markdown parsing against official specifications, keyboard shortcut implementations, and UI component behaviors, serving as practical learning resources for implementing similar testing strategies in their own projects.
