Storybook and React Native - Bristol JS - April 2019

Wyc Slingsby - Storybook and React Native Storybook is a popular tool for the development of UI components in many of the leading web frameworks including React, Vue and Angular. It provides a convenient environment for developing components in isolation from the main app, making the testing of hard-to-reach edge cases easier. Storybook also supports React Native, bringing the same advantages to mobile developers. In this talk I'll look at how we have used Storybook in the development of a new React Native app, sharing some of the key things we have learned along the way. We will also look at how the structural testing of React Native UI components can be automated using Storybook and Jest snapshots, providing an additional option for static front-end testing. _ About Pusher Sessions: We're bringing the meetup to you.
