Vue Router Mock

vue-router-mock is a testing utility designed for Vue 3 applications, specifically to facilitate unit and integration testing of components that interact with the official `vue-router`. Currently stable at version 2.0.2, the library maintains an active release cadence, providing minor updates for bug fixes and compatibility, such as the recent addition of `vue-router` v5 support. Its core purpose is to provide a mock `vue-router` instance that can be injected into components, enabling developers to spy on navigation calls (e.g., `push`, `replace`), simulate route changes, and assert router state without requiring a full browser environment or actual navigation. It differentiates itself from end-to-end testing tools by focusing on isolated scenarios, leading to more granular and faster test execution. The library integrates seamlessly with `@vue/test-utils` and offers flexible setup options for test environments like Jest or Vitest through functions such as `createRouterMock` and `injectRouterMock`.
