user-event

user-event is a companion library for Testing Library that provides more advanced simulation of browser interactions than the built-in fireEvent method.

npm install --save-dev @testing-library/user-event

import { screen } from '@testing-library/dom'
import userEvent from '@testing-library/user-event'

test('types inside textarea', async () => {
  document.body.innerHTML = `<textarea />`

  await userEvent.type(screen.getByRole('textbox'), 'Hello, World!')
  expect(screen.getByRole('textbox')).toHaveValue('Hello, World!')
})
