JEST – check if objects array is a subset of another array

Using JEST I want to test if an array of objects is a subset of another array.

I want to test the following:

const users = [{id: 1, name: 'Hugo'}, {id: 2, name: 'Francesco'}, {id: 3, name: 'Carlo'}];
const subset = [{id: 1, name: 'Hugo'}, {id: 2, name: 'Francesco'}];

expect(users).toContain(subset)

I’ve tried the following:

describe('test 1', () => {
  it('test 1', () => {
    expect(users).toEqual(
      expect.arrayContaining([
        expect.objectContaining(subset)
      ])
    )
  });
});

But this is not correct since objectContaining doesn’t accept array as param … it works only if subset is a single object.

Answer

I’ve never tried this myself, but wouldn’t it work to just say:

expect(users).toEqual(
  expect.arrayContaining(subset)
)
