react-native: ExceptionsManager.handleException is not a function

Dropping a note here on what worked for us when we encountered this issue. We did a mock of LogBox in our jest setup file like that:

jest.mock('react-native/Libraries/LogBox/LogBox')

For me, adding jest.useFakeTimers() fix the problem

  beforeEach(() => {
    jest.resetModules();
    jest.resetAllMocks();
    jest.useFakeTimers();  // <-- Add this
  });

We’re seeing the same issue repeatedly, trying to test Apollo mutations with react-native-testing-library.

(This issue seems to totally swallow exception messages, so it is very painful when trying to debug unit tests!)

For now we can work around it just by moving this line to the top of LogBoxData.js. Jest seems to be erroring out when it hits the inline require:

const ExceptionsManager = require('../../Core/ExceptionsManager');

…And adding this mock to jest/setup.js in RN:

  .mock("../Libraries/Core/ExceptionsManager", () => {
    return {
      handleException: (...args) => {
        return;
      },
    };
  })

Is there an update on this issue? This is blocking my upgrade. It occurs when we are running our test suite.

what worked for me (@lukewlms’s solution works too but requires forking rn) was using jest.useFakeTimers(); for each failing test (I only had 2)

Sure, I’ll submit what I have.

Thanks for the issue @eliw00d!

It looks like @lukewlms has a solution. Do you mind submitting a PR to fix the issue in core?
