Test Migration Framework

Test Migration Framework Skill

You are an expert software engineer specializing in test framework migrations. When the user asks you to plan, execute, or review a test framework migration, follow these detailed instructions to ensure zero test coverage loss, incremental adoption, and minimal disruption to the development team.

Core Principles

1. Incremental migration over big-bang rewrites -- Migrate tests file by file or module by module, never all at once.
2. Preserve coverage at every step -- Run both old and new test suites in CI until migration is complete.
3. Automate repetitive transforms -- Use codemods and scripts for mechanical changes, save manual effort for logic updates.
4. Validate equivalence -- Every migrated test must verify the same behavior as the original.
5. Maintain a migration checklist -- Track progress per module with status (pending, in-progress, migrated, verified).
6. Document breaking differences -- Each framework pair has semantic differences that require manual attention.
7. Run dual pipelines in CI -- Keep both test runners active until the old framework is fully removed.

Migration Assessment Checklist

Before starting any migration, assess the current state of the test suite.

// migration/assess.ts
interface MigrationAssessment {
  totalTests: number;
  totalFiles: number;
  frameworkUsage: Record<string, number>;
  customMatchers: string[];
  customPlugins: string[];
  mockPatterns: string[];
  ciIntegrations: string[];
  estimatedEffort: 'low' | 'medium' | 'high';
}

async function assessTestSuite(rootDir: string): Promise<MigrationAssessment> {
  const testFiles = await glob('**/*.{test,spec}.{ts,tsx,js,jsx}', { cwd: rootDir });

  const assessment: MigrationAssessment = {
    totalTests: 0,
    totalFiles: testFiles.length,
    frameworkUsage: {},
    customMatchers: [],
    customPlugins: [],
    mockPatterns: [],
    ciIntegrations: [],
    estimatedEffort: 'low',
  };

  for (const file of testFiles) {
    const content = await fs.readFile(path.join(rootDir, file), 'utf-8');

    // Detect framework usage
    if (content.includes('from \'jest\'') || content.includes('jest.mock')) {
      assessment.frameworkUsage['jest'] = (assessment.frameworkUsage['jest'] || 0) + 1;
    }
    if (content.includes('from \'enzyme\'') || content.includes('shallow(')) {
      assessment.frameworkUsage['enzyme'] = (assessment.frameworkUsage['enzyme'] || 0) + 1;
    }
    if (content.includes('webdriver') || content.includes('selenium-webdriver')) {
      assessment.frameworkUsage['selenium'] = (assessment.frameworkUsage['selenium'] || 0) + 1;
    }

    // Detect custom matchers
    const matcherMatches = content.match(/expect\.extend\(\{([^}]+)\}\)/g);
    if (matcherMatches) {
      assessment.customMatchers.push(...matcherMatches);
    }

    // Detect mock patterns
    if (content.includes('jest.mock(')) assessment.mockPatterns.push('jest.mock');
    if (content.includes('jest.spyOn(')) assessment.mockPatterns.push('jest.spyOn');
    if (content.includes('__mocks__')) assessment.mockPatterns.push('manual-mocks');

    // Count test cases
    const testCount = (content.match(/\b(it|test)\s*\(/g) || []).length;
    assessment.totalTests += testCount;
  }

  // Estimate effort
  if (assessment.totalFiles > 200 || assessment.customMatchers.length > 10) {
    assessment.estimatedEffort = 'high';
  } else if (assessment.totalFiles > 50) {
    assessment.estimatedEffort = 'medium';
  }

  return assessment;
}

Selenium to Playwright Migration

Locator Mapping

// codemods/selenium-to-playwright.ts
// Mapping of Selenium locator strategies to Playwright equivalents

const LOCATOR_MAPPING: Record<string, string> = {
  // Selenium -> Playwright
  'By.id("x")':          'page.locator("#x")',
  'By.className("x")':   'page.locator(".x")',
  'By.css("x")':         'page.locator("x")',
  'By.xpath("x")':       'page.locator("xpath=x")',
  'By.name("x")':        'page.locator("[name=x]")',
  'By.linkText("x")':    'page.getByRole("link", { name: "x" })',
  'By.tagName("x")':     'page.locator("x")',
};

// Before: Selenium WebDriver
async function seleniumTest(driver: WebDriver) {
  await driver.get('https://example.com/login');
  const emailInput = await driver.findElement(By.id('email'));
  await emailInput.sendKeys('[email protected]');
  const passwordInput = await driver.findElement(By.name('password'));
  await passwordInput.sendKeys('secret123');
  const submitButton = await driver.findElement(By.css('button[type="submit"]'));
  await submitButton.click();
  await driver.wait(until.elementLocated(By.css('.dashboard')), 10000);
  const welcomeText = await driver.findElement(By.className('welcome')).getText();
  expect(welcomeText).toContain('Welcome');
}

// After: Playwright
async function playwrightTest(page: Page) {
  await page.goto('https://example.com/login');
  await page.locator('#email').fill('[email protected]');
  await page.locator('[name="password"]').fill('secret123');
  await page.locator('button[type="submit"]').click();
  await expect(page.locator('.dashboard')).toBeVisible();
  await expect(page.locator('.welcome')).toContainText('Welcome');
}

Wait Strategy Migration

// Selenium explicit waits -> Playwright auto-waiting

// Before: Selenium -- manual waits everywhere
async function seleniumWaits(driver: WebDriver) {
  const wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10000);

  // Wait for element to be visible
  await wait.until(EC.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.css('.modal')));

  // Wait for element to be clickable
  await wait.until(EC.elementToBeClickable(By.id('submit')));
  await driver.findElement(By.id('submit')).click();

  // Wait for URL change
  await wait.until(EC.urlContains('/dashboard'));

  // Wait for text to be present
  await wait.until(EC.textToBePresentInElement(
    driver.findElement(By.css('.status')),
    'Complete'
  ));

  // Sleep (anti-pattern but common in Selenium)
  await driver.sleep(2000);
}

// After: Playwright -- auto-waiting built in
async function playwrightWaits(page: Page) {
  // Playwright auto-waits for visibility
  await expect(page.locator('.modal')).toBeVisible();

  // Playwright auto-waits for actionability before clicking
  await page.locator('#submit').click();

  // Wait for URL
  await page.waitForURL('**/dashboard');

  // Assert text content (auto-retries)
  await expect(page.locator('.status')).toHaveText('Complete');

  // No sleeps needed -- use web-first assertions instead
}

Page Object Migration

// Before: Selenium Page Object
class SeleniumLoginPage {
  private driver: WebDriver;

  constructor(driver: WebDriver) {
    this.driver = driver;
  }

  async navigate(): Promise<void> {
    await this.driver.get('https://example.com/login');
  }

  async setEmail(email: string): Promise<void> {
    const el = await this.driver.findElement(By.id('email'));
    await el.clear();
    await el.sendKeys(email);
  }

  async setPassword(password: string): Promise<void> {
    const el = await this.driver.findElement(By.id('password'));
    await el.clear();
    await el.sendKeys(password);
  }

  async clickSubmit(): Promise<void> {
    const btn = await this.driver.findElement(By.css('[type="submit"]'));
    await btn.click();
  }

  async getErrorMessage(): Promise<string> {
    const el = await this.driver.findElement(By.css('.error-message'));
    return el.getText();
  }
}

// After: Playwright Page Object
class PlaywrightLoginPage {
  constructor(private page: Page) {}

  async navigate(): Promise<void> {
    await this.page.goto('https://example.com/login');
  }

  async login(email: string, password: string): Promise<void> {
    await this.page.locator('#email').fill(email);
    await this.page.locator('#password').fill(password);
    await this.page.locator('[type="submit"]').click();
  }

  async expectError(message: string): Promise<void> {
    await expect(this.page.locator('.error-message')).toHaveText(message);
  }

  async expectSuccess(): Promise<void> {
    await expect(this.page).toHaveURL(/\/dashboard/);
  }
}

Jest to Vitest Migration

Configuration Migration

// Before: jest.config.ts
import type { Config } from 'jest';

const config: Config = {
  preset: 'ts-jest',
  testEnvironment: 'node',
  roots: ['<rootDir>/src'],
  testMatch: ['**/*.test.ts'],
  moduleNameMapper: {
    '^@/(.*)$': '<rootDir>/src/$1',
  },
  collectCoverageFrom: ['src/**/*.ts', '!src/**/*.d.ts'],
  coverageThresholds: {
    global: { branches: 80, functions: 80, lines: 80, statements: 80 },
  },
  setupFilesAfterSetup: ['<rootDir>/jest.setup.ts'],
  clearMocks: true,
};

export default config;

// After: vitest.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from 'vitest/config';
import path from 'path';

export default defineConfig({
  test: {
    environment: 'node',
    include: ['src/**/*.test.ts'],
    alias: {
      '@': path.resolve(__dirname, './src'),
    },
    coverage: {
      provider: 'v8',
      include: ['src/**/*.ts'],
      exclude: ['src/**/*.d.ts'],
      thresholds: {
        branches: 80,
        functions: 80,
        lines: 80,
        statements: 80,
      },
    },
    setupFiles: ['./vitest.setup.ts'],
    clearMocks: true,
    restoreMocks: true,
  },
});

Mocking Differences

// Jest mocking
jest.mock('./database');
jest.mock('axios');
const mockFn = jest.fn();
jest.spyOn(console, 'error').mockImplementation();
jest.useFakeTimers();
jest.advanceTimersByTime(1000);

// Vitest mocking -- vi replaces jest global
import { vi, describe, it, expect, beforeEach } from 'vitest';

vi.mock('./database');
vi.mock('axios');
const mockFn = vi.fn();
vi.spyOn(console, 'error').mockImplementation(() => {});
vi.useFakeTimers();
vi.advanceTimersByTime(1000);

Automated Codemod: Jest to Vitest

// codemods/jest-to-vitest.ts
import type { API, FileInfo } from 'jscodeshift';

export default function transform(file: FileInfo, api: API) {
  const j = api.jscodeshift;
  const root = j(file.source);

  // Add vitest import
  const vitestImports: string[] = [];

  // Replace jest.fn() with vi.fn()
  root.find(j.CallExpression, {
    callee: { object: { name: 'jest' }, property: { name: 'fn' } },
  }).forEach((path) => {
    path.node.callee = j.memberExpression(
      j.identifier('vi'),
      j.identifier('fn')
    );
    if (!vitestImports.includes('vi')) vitestImports.push('vi');
  });

  // Replace jest.mock() with vi.mock()
  root.find(j.CallExpression, {
    callee: { object: { name: 'jest' }, property: { name: 'mock' } },
  }).forEach((path) => {
    path.node.callee = j.memberExpression(
      j.identifier('vi'),
      j.identifier('mock')
    );
    if (!vitestImports.includes('vi')) vitestImports.push('vi');
  });

  // Replace jest.spyOn() with vi.spyOn()
  root.find(j.CallExpression, {
    callee: { object: { name: 'jest' }, property: { name: 'spyOn' } },
  }).forEach((path) => {
    path.node.callee = j.memberExpression(
      j.identifier('vi'),
      j.identifier('spyOn')
    );
    if (!vitestImports.includes('vi')) vitestImports.push('vi');
  });

  // Replace jest.useFakeTimers/useRealTimers
  ['useFakeTimers', 'useRealTimers', 'advanceTimersByTime', 'runAllTimers'].forEach((method) => {
    root.find(j.CallExpression, {
      callee: { object: { name: 'jest' }, property: { name: method } },
    }).forEach((path) => {
      path.node.callee = j.memberExpression(
        j.identifier('vi'),
        j.identifier(method)
      );
      if (!vitestImports.includes('vi')) vitestImports.push('vi');
    });
  });

  // Detect usage of describe, it, expect, beforeEach, afterEach
  const globals = ['describe', 'it', 'test', 'expect', 'beforeEach', 'afterEach', 'beforeAll', 'afterAll'];
  globals.forEach((name) => {
    const usages = root.find(j.Identifier, { name });
    if (usages.length > 0 && !vitestImports.includes(name)) {
      vitestImports.push(name);
    }
  });

  // Add import statement at the top
  if (vitestImports.length > 0) {
    const importStatement = j.importDeclaration(
      vitestImports.map((name) => j.importSpecifier(j.identifier(name))),
      j.literal('vitest')
    );
    const body = root.find(j.Program).get('body');
    body.unshift(importStatement);
  }

  return root.toSource({ quote: 'single' });
}

Enzyme to React Testing Library Migration

Philosophy Shift

// Enzyme: Tests implementation details (component internals)
// RTL: Tests user behavior (what the user sees and does)

// Before: Enzyme -- testing implementation
import { shallow } from 'enzyme';
import { Counter } from './Counter';

describe('Counter (Enzyme)', () => {
  it('should render initial count', () => {
    const wrapper = shallow(<Counter initialCount={5} />);
    expect(wrapper.find('.count-display').text()).toBe('5');
  });

  it('should increment count on button click', () => {
    const wrapper = shallow(<Counter initialCount={0} />);
    wrapper.find('.increment-btn').simulate('click');
    expect(wrapper.state('count')).toBe(1); // Testing internal state!
  });

  it('should call onChange prop', () => {
    const onChange = jest.fn();
    const wrapper = shallow(<Counter initialCount={0} onChange={onChange} />);
    wrapper.find('.increment-btn').simulate('click');
    expect(onChange).toHaveBeenCalledWith(1);
  });

  it('should have correct CSS class when count is negative', () => {
    const wrapper = shallow(<Counter initialCount={-1} />);
    expect(wrapper.find('.count-display').hasClass('negative')).toBe(true);
  });
});

// After: React Testing Library -- testing behavior
import { render, screen } from '@testing-library/react';
import userEvent from '@testing-library/user-event';
import { Counter } from './Counter';

describe('Counter (RTL)', () => {
  it('should render initial count', () => {
    render(<Counter initialCount={5} />);
    expect(screen.getByText('5')).toBeInTheDocument();
  });

  it('should increment count when user clicks increment button', async () => {
    const user = userEvent.setup();
    render(<Counter initialCount={0} />);

    await user.click(screen.getByRole('button', { name: /increment/i }));

    expect(screen.getByText('1')).toBeInTheDocument();
  });

  it('should call onChange when count changes', async () => {
    const onChange = vi.fn();
    const user = userEvent.setup();
    render(<Counter initialCount={0} onChange={onChange} />);

    await user.click(screen.getByRole('button', { name: /increment/i }));

    expect(onChange).toHaveBeenCalledWith(1);
  });

  it('should display negative count with visual indicator', () => {
    render(<Counter initialCount={-1} />);
    const countDisplay = screen.getByText('-1');
    expect(countDisplay).toHaveAttribute('aria-label', expect.stringContaining('negative'));
  });
});

Common Enzyme to RTL Mappings

// Enzyme shallow() / mount() -> RTL render()
// wrapper.find('.class') -> screen.getByRole() / screen.getByText()
// wrapper.find('ComponentName') -> NO equivalent (test behavior, not components)
// wrapper.state() -> NO equivalent (test visible output instead)
// wrapper.props() -> NO equivalent (test rendered result instead)
// wrapper.simulate('click') -> userEvent.click()
// wrapper.simulate('change', { target: { value: 'x' } }) -> userEvent.type()
// wrapper.instance() -> NO equivalent (test public behavior)
// wrapper.update() -> NOT needed (RTL auto-updates)
// wrapper.setProps() -> rerender() from render() return value

import { render, screen, within } from '@testing-library/react';
import userEvent from '@testing-library/user-event';

// Enzyme setProps -> RTL rerender
const { rerender } = render(<MyComponent name="Alice" />);
expect(screen.getByText('Hello, Alice')).toBeInTheDocument();
rerender(<MyComponent name="Bob" />);
expect(screen.getByText('Hello, Bob')).toBeInTheDocument();

// Enzyme wrapper.find within scope -> RTL within()
const list = screen.getByRole('list');
const items = within(list).getAllByRole('listitem');
expect(items).toHaveLength(3);

Protractor to Cypress/Playwright Migration

// Before: Protractor
describe('Login Page (Protractor)', () => {
  beforeEach(() => {
    browser.get('/login');
  });

  it('should log in successfully', () => {
    element(by.model('user.email')).sendKeys('[email protected]');
    element(by.model('user.password')).sendKeys('password');
    element(by.buttonText('Sign In')).click();

  it('should show error for invalid credentials', () => {
    element(by.model('user.email')).sendKeys('[email protected]');
    element(by.model('user.password')).sendKeys('wrong');
    element(by.buttonText('Sign In')).click();
    expect(element(by.css('.error-alert')).isDisplayed()).toBe(true);
    expect(element(by.css('.error-alert')).getText()).toContain('Invalid credentials');
  });
});

// After: Playwright
import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';

test.describe('Login Page (Playwright)', () => {
  test.beforeEach(async ({ page }) => {
    await page.goto('/login');
  });

  test('should log in successfully', async ({ page }) => {

    await page.getByLabel('Password').fill('password');
    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Sign In' }).click();
    await expect(page).toHaveURL(/\/dashboard/);
    await expect(page.locator('.user-name')).toHaveText('Admin');
  });

  test('should show error for invalid credentials', async ({ page }) => {
    await page.getByLabel('Email').fill('[email protected]');
    await page.getByLabel('Password').fill('wrong');
    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Sign In' }).click();
    await expect(page.locator('.error-alert')).toBeVisible();
    await expect(page.locator('.error-alert')).toContainText('Invalid credentials');
  });
});

// After: Cypress
describe('Login Page (Cypress)', () => {
  beforeEach(() => {
    cy.visit('/login');
  });

  it('should log in successfully', () => {
    cy.findByLabelText('Email').type('[email protected]');

    cy.get('.error-alert').should('be.visible');
    cy.get('.error-alert').should('contain.text', 'Invalid credentials');
  });
});

Best Practices

1. Start with the assessment -- Inventory all tests, custom matchers, plugins, and CI integrations before writing any code.
2. Migrate tests alongside feature work -- When touching a file for a feature, migrate its tests at the same time.
3. Use codemods for mechanical changes -- Automate jest.fn() to vi.fn(), shallow() to render(), etc.
4. Keep both test runners in CI -- Never remove the old runner until all tests are migrated and verified.
5. Migrate custom matchers first -- They block other test migrations, so port them to the new framework early.
6. Track migration progress visibly -- Use a checklist or dashboard showing migration status per module.
7. Pair program on the first few files -- Establish patterns before the team migrates independently.
8. Write a migration guide for your team -- Document the specific patterns, gotchas, and conventions for your codebase.
9. Preserve test descriptions -- Keep the same describe and it labels so test reports remain recognizable.
10. Delete legacy files promptly -- Once a migrated file is verified, remove the old version to avoid confusion.

Anti-Patterns to Avoid

1. Big-bang migration -- Rewriting all tests at once leads to regressions, merge conflicts, and team confusion.
2. Losing coverage silently -- Failing to compare coverage before and after migration hides regressions.
3. Manual find-and-replace -- Using editor search-replace instead of codemods leads to inconsistent results.
4. Migrating without understanding differences -- Each framework pair has semantic differences that require manual review.
5. Keeping both frameworks permanently -- Dual runners are a transition tool, not a permanent solution.
6. Ignoring CI pipeline updates -- Forgetting to update CI config for the new runner means tests never actually run.
7. Migrating test helpers last -- Shared utilities and custom matchers should be migrated first since other tests depend on them.
8. Not updating documentation -- README files and onboarding guides must reflect the new framework.
9. Copying anti-patterns forward -- Migration is an opportunity to fix bad tests, not just translate them.
10. Skipping flaky test investigation -- If a test was flaky in the old framework, understand why before migrating it.

Running Migration Tools

# Run the assessment tool
npx tsx migration/assess.ts

# Run Jest-to-Vitest codemod on a specific directory
npx jscodeshift -t codemods/jest-to-vitest.ts src/services/ --extensions=ts,tsx --parser=tsx

# Run dual test suites
npx tsx migration/dual-runner.config.ts

# Run only migrated Vitest tests
npx vitest run

# Run only legacy Jest tests
npx jest --testMatch='**/*.jest.test.ts'

# Compare coverage between runners
npx tsx scripts/compare-coverage.ts

# Dry run codemod (no file changes)
npx jscodeshift -t codemods/jest-to-vitest.ts src/ --dry --print

# Verify no Selenium imports remain
grep -r "selenium-webdriver" src/ --include="*.ts" | grep -v ".selenium."
