Reviewer scorecard
“Still the most used JS testing framework. Massive ecosystem of matchers, plugins, and documentation.”
“Open-source feature flags that you can self-host. SDKs for every language and the evaluation is fast.”
“Vitest does everything Jest does faster with better ESM support. New projects should start with Vitest.”
“80% of LaunchDarkly's features at a fraction of the cost. Self-hosting option means no vendor lock-in.”
“Jest defined modern JS testing but Vitest is the future. The migration is happening steadily.”
“Feature flag infrastructure is becoming commodity. Open-source solutions like Unleash will capture the long tail.”
