6 Testing and debugging TypeScript
This chapter covers
- Debugging TypeScript code using Visual Studio Code and the Node.js debugger
- Using a linter to find problems in code the com piler won’t detect
- Writing and executing unit tests on TypeScript code
In this chapter, I continue the theme of TypeScript development tools started in chapter 5, which introduced the TypeScript compiler. I show you the different ways that TypeScript code can be debugged, demonstrate the use of TypeScript and the linter, and explain how to set up unit testing for TypeScript code.
