Reviewer scorecard
“The free tier is incredibly generous. Multimodal capabilities and grounding with Google Search are unique advantages.”
“Still the most used JS testing framework. Massive ecosystem of matchers, plugins, and documentation.”
“Google's track record of killing products is concerning, but the Gemini API is too useful to ignore.”
“Vitest does everything Jest does faster with better ESM support. New projects should start with Vitest.”
“Google's data advantage and multimodal-first approach make Gemini a serious contender in the model race.”
“Jest defined modern JS testing but Vitest is the future. The migration is happening steadily.”
