an idea for a useful IDE plugin

[lstkz]

During development, I always verify created snapshots manually. It's sometimes not easy to find them if the test suite contains many tests. Also, the order from test.js.snap doesn't match the order from the original test.

I don't think it's possible to solve this issue directly in jest, but I think it should be possible to provide plugins for popular IDEs (WebStorm, Sublime etc).

For the given code:

 expect(obj).toMatchSnapshot();

When you ctrl+click on toMatchSnapshot it would navigate to the correct snapshot or display some popup with the expected string.

Any thoughts?

Yes, feel free to build this. There is jest-editor-support in this repo and vscode-jest which you can extend to add this feature. We will not build this feature at this time, sorry.

Agree, this is a great idea. There's some work done here: jest-community/vscode-jest#73
