Comment Comment by pietro From what Dan Abramov has been posting on Twitter recently, findDOMNode() is in the process of being deprecated, so rather than writing const component = ReactDOM.findDOMNode(TestUtils.renderIntoDocument( <MyComponent {...props} /> )); we should be writing let node; const component = TestUtils.renderIntoDocument( <MyComponent {...props} ref={n => node = n}/> ); https://gist.github.com/gaearon/7f0e03d3028016bfabfad641720d... parent pietro 10 years ago
