Reviewer scorecard
“Still the most used JS testing framework. Massive ecosystem of matchers, plugins, and documentation.”
“The most feature-complete flag platform. Targeting rules, segments, and experimentation are production-grade.”
“Vitest does everything Jest does faster with better ESM support. New projects should start with Vitest.”
“Expensive for what amounts to conditional logic. PostHog flags, Vercel Flags, or Unleash cover most needs at lower cost.”
“Jest defined modern JS testing but Vitest is the future. The migration is happening steadily.”
“Feature flags as infrastructure for safe deployment will be universal. LaunchDarkly defined the category.”
