{"library":"jest-watch-typeahead","type":"library","category":null,"description":"jest-watch-typeahead is a Jest plugin designed to enhance the developer experience by providing interactive, real-time filtering of test files and test names directly within Jest's watch mode. It allows users to quickly narrow down the tests being run by typing part of a filename or test description, significantly improving efficiency in large test suites. The current stable version is 3.0.1, released on 2025-06-19. New major versions typically align with Jest's own major releases (e.g., v3.0.0 for Jest 30) to ensure compatibility, leading to a release cadence that closely tracks Jest's evolution. This plugin differentiates itself by seamlessly integrating type-ahead search capabilities into the Jest watch interface, offering a more dynamic and intuitive alternative to manual test path specification or static regex filtering. It focuses purely on improving test navigation and execution flow during active development, providing a significant quality-of-life improvement for developers working with extensive test bases.","language":"javascript","status":"active","version":"3.0.1","tags":["javascript"],"last_verified":"Wed May 27","install":[{"cmd":"npm install jest-watch-typeahead","imports":["module.exports = {\n  watchPlugins: ['jest-watch-typeahead/filename']\n};","module.exports = {\n  watchPlugins: ['jest-watch-typeahead/testname']\n};","module.exports = {\n  watchPlugins: [\n    ['jest-watch-typeahead/filename', { key: 'k', prompt: 'Filter by filename:' }]\n  ]\n};"]},{"cmd":"yarn add jest-watch-typeahead","imports":[]},{"cmd":"pnpm add jest-watch-typeahead","imports":[]}],"homepage":null,"github":"https://github.com/jest-community/jest-watch-typeahead","docs":null,"changelog":null,"pypi":null,"npm":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/jest-watch-typeahead","openapi_spec":null,"status_page":null,"smithery":null,"compatibility":{"summary":{"python_range":"18–22","success_rate":0,"avg_install_s":null,"avg_import_s":null,"wheel_type":null},"url":"https://checklist.day/v1/registry/jest-watch-typeahead/compatibility"}}
