@testing-library/jest-dom is a companion library for Jest that provides custom Jest matchers for asserting on DOM elements. It enhances the testing experience by offering a set of matchers specifically designed for testing user interfaces and interactions. These matchers allow you to write more expressive and readable tests for your web applications.
Compared to traditional Jest assertions, @testing-library/jest-dom's matchers are more aligned with how users interact with your application, making your tests more robust and closer to real-world scenarios. It is actively maintained and recommended for testing React components and applications.
