What's cool is that building wrappers for your JavaScript framework of choice is

As of a few months ago,
156+
[the React team officially recommends](https://reactjs.org/blog/2019/02/06/react-v16.8.0.html)
157+
you use react-testing-library to test your react applications. That's kinda neat
158+
:)
159+
160+
At the React Amsterdam Open Source awards ceremony, react-testing-library won
161+
the award for the Most impactful contribution to the community!
162+
163+
![Open Source Awards award](/img/blog/award.jpg)
164+
165+
react-testing-library _also_ received recognition on the
166+
[ThoughtWorks Technology Radar](https://www.thoughtworks.com/radar/languages-and-frameworks)
167+
as technology they believe is "Worth exploring with the goal of understanding
168+
how it will affect your enterprise." We think so too :)

No matter what platform you're working with, the guiding principles of the Testing

Library family can be applied to the tests for that platform. Take a step back and
178-
consider how closely your tests are resembling the way your software is used. If
179-
you can, consider what lightweight but powerful utilities would enable others to
180-
test their software in that way as well and create a library for that! Maybe it can
