Your Jest tests might be wrong

From jamiemagee.co.uk

Is your Jest test suite failing you? You might not be using the testing framework’s full potential, especially when it comes to preventing state leakage between tests. The Jest settings clearMocks, resetMocks, restoreMocks, and resetModules are set to false by default. If you haven’t changed these defaults, your tests might be fragile, order-dependent, or just downright wrong. In this blog post, I’ll dig into what each setting does, and how you can fix your tests.
