Adding data configuration files

Legend has it that data files were created by a brilliant and enigmatic scientist whose name is whispered only in hushed tones by those who know of its existence. They are said to contain ancient knowledge, sacred algorithms, and hidden codes that can unravel the mysteries of the application under test.

Where data is stored for test use

Adding data files to your test code with TypeScript is exactly like how you do it for JavaScript, but with TypeScript, you have the added benefit of leveraging TypeScript’s static typing and modules that will help you catch type-related errors early, making your tests more robust and maintainable.

Organizing test data
