spectator

spectator copied to clipboard

Description

Although it seams possible to add an event to dispatchMouseEvent this is only possible by redefinig the type of the event

Consider this code

const mouseEvent = createMouseEvent('click');
const onEventSpy = jest.spyOn(mouseEvent, 'stopPropagation');
spectator.dispatchMouseEvent('button', mouseEvent);
expect(onEventSpy).toHaveBeenCalled();

Currently you would have to add all other parameters to dispatchMouseEvent

Proposed solution

Create a dispatchEvent method to spectator, that allows dispatching an formaly created events.

OR

Change dispatchMouseEvent to allow adding a mouseEvent as second parameter instead of string.

Alternatives considered
