     examples/component-testing.md

   • Browser mode/浏览器模式 →

     examples/browser-mode.md

   • API/API 文档 →

     api/

   • Configuration/配置 →

     examples/config/

2. Load the appropriate example file from the

   examples/

   • Fast watch mode with HMR-like experience
   • Compatible with Jest API
   • Examples include both JavaScript and TypeScript versions
   • Each example file includes key concepts, code examples, and key points

4. Reference API documentation in the

   api/

   directory when needed:

   • api/test-api.md

     - Test API reference

   • api/vi-utility.md

     - vi utility functions

   • api/expect.md

     - Expect assertions

   • api/mocking.md

     - Mocking API

5. Use templates from the

Examples and Templates

This skill includes detailed examples organized to match the official documentation structure. All examples are in the

examples/

directory (see mapping above).

To use examples:

• Identify the topic from the user's request
• Load the appropriate example file from the mapping above
• Follow the instructions, syntax, and best practices in that file
• Adapt the code examples to your specific use case

To use templates:

• Reference templates in

  templates/

  directory for common scaffolding
• Adapt templates to your specific needs and coding style

Best Practices

1. Use watch mode: Leverage Vitest's smart watch mode for faster feedback
2. Organize tests: Group related tests with describe blocks
3. Use TypeScript: Take advantage of native TypeScript support
4. Mock effectively: Use vi.mock() for module mocking
5. Test components: Use component testing for Vue/React components
6. Use UI mode: Use

   --ui

   flag for better test debugging experience
7. Optimize performance: Use test.only() during development
