sessionStorage not supported - used in reactjs

[mnemanja]

I'm using the sessionStorage in my constructor and that produces the error. I need it there or in the componentWillMount lifecycle to be able to react on time.

I need the sessionStorage in production. Can it be used with react-snapshot?

The error that I'm getting is the following:

🔥 'render' from react-snapshot was never called. Did you replace the call to ReactDOM.render()?

Hey, @mnemanja. Have u found any solution to this problem?

[stereobooster]

You need either implement it in jsdom or switch from jsdom to real browser, like headless chrome.

From readme:

Is JSDOM gonna hold us back at some point?

Related #40

Jsdom issue won't be fixed, see #44 (comment). If this answers your question please close issue. Thanks

Hi, It was on a project in my previous company a few months back.
I remember mocking the storage for tests, but not quite sure if I've used something special.
