#Features

Here you can learn about the key features supported by Rstest.

#Reuse the Rstack ecosystem

Rstest can directly reuse Rsbuild and Rspack configurations and plugin ecosystems. You can use the same configuration for both development and testing to enjoy a consistent experience across the Rstack toolchain.

#Built on Rspack

Rstest is powered by Rspack, enabling high-performance builds and optimizations such as Tree Shaking and lazyBarrel.

#Multi-project testing

Rstest provides multi-project testing capabilities, allowing you to run tests for multiple projects in parallel within a single Rstest process.

#In-source tests

Rstest supports a Rust-like module testing style, allowing you to write test blocks directly inside source files. This approach is ideal for small utility functions and helpers, enabling quick verification and debugging.

#Watch mode

When you modify a test file or one of its dependencies, Rstest analyzes the module graph and only re-runs the affected test files, significantly improving local feedback speed.

#DOM testing

Rstest supports simulating the DOM and browser APIs using jsdom and happy-dom. It provides solid support for frameworks such as React and Vue, and is compatible with Testing Library and CSS Modules.
