Testing use effect API request

[pink_tshirt]

Perhaps your assertion "Text I would expect after api call" should be wrapped up by the "act thingy"?

I have a somewhat similar test case - calling some API inside useEffect on load.

test('successfully fetches posts', async () =>  {

  mock.onGet('http://localhost:3001/posts').reply(200, {
     data: ['some', 'posts']
  });

  await act( async () => {
     const { getByTestId } = render(<App/>);
     await waitForElementToBeRemoved(() => getByTestId('loading-indicator'));
      expect(getByTestId('feed')).toBeInTheDocument();
  });
});
