### Waiting in tests
Sometimes a test needs to wait for something to happen in the application before it continues.
Avoid using [`setTimeout`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/setTimeout)
because it makes the reason for waiting unclear. Instead use one of the following approaches.

Manual mocks are used to mock modules across the entire Jest environment. This is a very powerful testing tool that helps simplify

#### Where should I put manual mocks?
Jest supports [manual module mocks](https://jestjs.io/docs/manual-mocks) by placing a mock in a `__mocks__/` directory next to the source module
(e.g. `app/assets/javascripts/ide/__mocks__`). **Don't do this.** We want to keep all of our test-related code in one place (the `spec/` folder).
(for example, `app/assets/javascripts/ide/__mocks__`). **Don't do this.** We want to keep all of our test-related code in one place (the `spec/` folder).
If a manual mock is needed for a `node_modules` package, use the `spec/frontend/__mocks__` folder. Here's an example of
a [Jest mock for the package `monaco-editor`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/b7f914cddec9fc5971238cdf12766e79fa1629d7/spec/frontend/__mocks__/monaco-editor/index.js#L1).

That way the differences between an empty string e.g. `''` and a non-empty string e.g. `'search string'` would be visible in the spec output.

The above test will create two snapshots, what's important is to decide which of the snapshots provide more value for the codebase safety i.e. if one of these snapshots changes, does that highlight a possible un-wanted break in the codebase? This can help catch unexpected changes if something in an underlying dependency changes without our knowledge.
