Vitest is a next-generation testing framework powered by Vite. It provides a Jest-compatible API with native ESM, TypeScript, and JSX support out of the box. Vitest shares the same config, transformers, resolvers, and plugins with your Vite app.

**Key Features:**
- Vite-native: Uses Vite's transformation pipeline for fast HMR-like test updates
- Jest-compatible: Drop-in replacement for most Jest test suites
- Smart watch mode: Only reruns affected tests based on module graph
- Native ESM, TypeScript, JSX support without configuration
- Multi-threaded workers for parallel test execution
- Built-in coverage via V8 or Istanbul
- Snapshot testing, mocking, and spy utilities

> The skill is based on Vitest 3.x, generated at 2026-01-28.

## Project-specific notes (proyecto_anita)

- Run vitest from `services/frontend-v2/`, not repo root — `@/` alias resolves relative to `vitest.config.ts` directory (see `feedback_vitest_cwd_alias.md`)
- Mock `@/lib/supabase/client` before any import that transitively reaches it (see `feedback_supabase_mock_at_import.md`)
