Lets you use Web Workers in Jest!
This is an experimental implementation of the Web Worker API (specifically Dedicated Worker) for JSDOM.
It does not currently do any real threading, rather it implements the Worker interface but all work is done in the current thread. jsdom-worker runs wherever JSDOM runs, and does not require Node.
It supports both "inline" (created via Blob) and standard (loaded via URL) workers.
Hot Take: this module likely works in the browser, where it could act as a simple inline worker "poorlyfill".

Why?
Jest uses a JSDOM environment by default, which means it doesn't support Workers. This means it is impossible to test code that requires both NodeJS functionality and Web Workers. jsdom-worker implements enough of the Worker spec that it is now possible to do so.
Installation
npm i jsdom-worker
Example
import 'jsdom-global/register';
import 'jsdom-worker';
let code = `onmessage = e => postMessage(e.data*2)`;
let worker = new Worker(URL.createObjectURL(new Blob([code])));
worker.onmessage = console.log;
worker.postMessage(5); // 10
Usage with Jest
For single tests, simply add import 'jsdom-worker' to your module.
Otherwise, add it via the setupFiles Jest config option:
{
"setupFiles": [
"jsdom-worker"
]
}
