Flag for forcing Jest to run all tests without prompt

[gustavjf]

Do you want to request a feature or report a bug?

Feature.

What is the current behavior?

Running Jest defaults to prompting for input (i.e., a for running all the tests, q for quit, etc.).

If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and if possible a minimal repository on GitHub that we can npm install and npm test.

It's not a bug.

What is the expected behavior?

For Jest to run all tests and then exit without prompt. Running Jest in a Docker container and having this prompt slows down development. It would be useful to have a flag that forces all tests to run and exit after the suite finishes. --bail flag does not cover this use case as it's for failing tests.

Run Jest again with --debug and provide the full configuration it prints. Please mention your node and npm version and operating system.

N/A

I haven't found a flag that has this functionality and I'm unsure if it's already supported.

Are you using create-react-app? Jest should exit normally assuming you clean up all your resources.

When you run npm test, Jest will launch in the watch mode. Every time you save a file, it will re-run the tests, just like npm start recompiles the code.

You're absolutely right. My mistake.

@gustavjf you can run with CI=true yarn test
