Why does this test code fail (It works in the application) - using testing-library/react-hooks - react-hooks

Question

I'm having trouble writing test code for this application. Specifically, the code works in the app - it works exactly the way I want it to. But with all the crazy mocks and abstractions in the codebase I have to work with, for some reason the tests never seem to pass.
Here is the code I'm hoping to test:
// useLandAccessHistory.ts
import { RequestState, RootState, useAppDispatch, useAppSelector } from '../../../../../store';
import { fetchLandAccessHistory } from '../../../../../extension/LandAccess/module/thunks';
import { LAND_ACCESS_SLICE_NAME } from '../../../../../extension/LandAccess/module/constants';
import { models } from '#h2know-how/moata-land-management-sdk';
import { useEffect, useMemo } from 'react';
const landAccessHistoryTableSelector = (state: RootState) => {
const landAccess = state[LAND_ACCESS_SLICE_NAME];
const byTitleId = (titleId: number): models.LandAccessHistory[] | undefined =>
landAccess.landAccessHistories[titleId];
const { status, error } = landAccess.apiStatus.fetchLandAccessHistory;
return { status, error, byTitleId };
};
export const useLandAccessHistory = ({
projectId,
titleId,
}: {
projectId: number;
titleId: number;
}): { historyData?: models.LandAccessHistory[] } & RequestState => {
const dispatch = useAppDispatch();
const { status, error, byTitleId } = useAppSelector(landAccessHistoryTableSelector);
useEffect(() => {
const req = dispatch(
fetchLandAccessHistory({
projectId,
titleId,
})
);
return req.abort;
}, [dispatch, projectId, titleId]);
const historyData = useMemo(() => byTitleId(titleId), [byTitleId, titleId]);
return { historyData, status, error };
};
And here is the test suite that is failing.
// useLandAccessHistory.spec.ts
import React from 'react';
import { Provider } from 'react-redux';
import { configureStore } from '#reduxjs/toolkit';
import { renderHook } from '#testing-library/react-hooks';
import { waitFor } from '#testing-library/react';
import { useLocation } from 'react-router-dom';
import { useLandAccessHistory } from './useLandAccessHistory';
import { useAppDispatch, useAppSelector } from '../../../../../store';
import { landAccessSlice } from '../../../../../extension/LandAccess/module/landAccess';
import { LAND_ACCESS_SLICE_NAME } from '../../../../../extension/LandAccess/module/constants';
import { useUrlParams, useUrlSearchParams } from '../../../../../utils/hooks';
import { mockLandAccessHistories } from '../../../../../extension/LandAccess/test-helpers/factories';
import { landAccessAPI } from '../../../../../extension/LandAccess/api/landAccessAPI';
const mockHistories = mockLandAccessHistories({ projectId: 123, titleId: 345 }, 2);
jest.mock('react-router-dom', () => ({
...jest.requireActual('react-router-dom'),
useLocation: jest.fn(),
}));
jest.mock('../../../../../store');
jest.mock('../../../../../utils/hooks', () => ({
...jest.requireActual('../../../../../utils/hooks'),
useUrlParams: jest.fn(),
useUrlSearchParams: jest.fn(),
}));
jest.mock('../../../../../extension/LandAccess/api/landAccessAPI', () => ({
getLandAccessHistory: jest.fn(() => Promise.resolve(mockHistories)),
}));
describe('useLandAccessHistory', () => {
let dispatch: jest.Mock;
let abort: jest.Mock;
let store: any;
let wrapper: any;
beforeEach(() => {
(useLocation as jest.Mock).mockReturnValue({ pathname: '/route/123' });
store = configureStore({
reducer: { [LAND_ACCESS_SLICE_NAME]: landAccessSlice.reducer },
middleware: (getDefaultMiddleware) => getDefaultMiddleware(),
});
dispatch = jest.fn((...params) => store.dispatch(...params));
abort = jest.fn();
dispatch.mockReturnValue({ abort });
wrapper = ({ children }) => <Provider store={store}>{children}</Provider>;
(useUrlParams as jest.Mock).mockReturnValue({ projectId: 123 });
(useUrlSearchParams as jest.Mock).mockReturnValue({ feature_id: 345 });
(useAppDispatch as jest.Mock).mockReturnValue(dispatch);
(useAppSelector as jest.Mock).mockImplementation((selectorFunction) => selectorFunction(store.getState()));
});
it('fetches the land access history', async () => {
const { result, rerender } = renderHook(() => useLandAccessHistory({ projectId: 123, titleId: 345 }), { wrapper });
await waitFor(() => {
expect(dispatch).toHaveBeenCalled(); // this line runs.
});
rerender();
await waitFor(() => {
expect(store.getState().landAccessHistories).toEqual(mockHistories); // the store does not contain the data
expect(result.current).toEqual({ error: null, status: 'fulfilled', historyData: mockHistories }); // the status is idle and history data is undefined
});
});
});
Here's what I've tried so far: so far as I can tell, dispatch runs, but it doesn't seem to actually call the mocked (or real) API function. It could be that dispatch has been called but has not yet resolved, but then wouldn't await waitFor and rerender() help solve that problem?
