Jest is a delightful JavaScript testing framework with a focus on simplicity and ease of use. It is widely used for testing JavaScript code, including React applications, Node.js projects, and more. Jest provides a zero-configuration setup, making it easy to get started with testing right away. It offers features like snapshot testing, mocking, and code coverage reports, helping developers write reliable and efficient tests.

Compared to other testing frameworks like Mocha or Jasmine, Jest stands out for its fast and parallel test execution, built-in support for modern JavaScript features, and seamless integration with popular tools like Babel and webpack.
