In the next major release, we intend to drop support for using the `act` testing helper in production. (It already fires a warning.) The rationale is that, in order for `act` to work, you must either mock the testing environment or add extra logic at runtime. Mocking the testing environment isn't ideal because it requires extra set up for the user. Extra logic at runtime is fine only in development mode — we don't want to slow down the production builds. Since most people only run their tests in development mode, dropping support for production should be fine; if there's demand, we can add it back later using a special testing build that is identical to the production build except for the additional testing logic. One blocker for removing production support is that we currently use `act` to test React itself. We must test React in both development and production modes. So, the solution is to fork `act` into separate public and internal implementations: - *public implementation of `act`* – exposed to users, only works in development mode, uses special runtime logic, does not support partial rendering - *internal implementation of `act`* – private, works in both development and productionm modes, only used by the React Core test suite, uses no special runtime logic, supports partial rendering (i.e. `toFlushAndYieldThrough`) The internal implementation should mostly match the public implementation's behavior, but since it's a private API, it doesn't have to match exactly. It works by mocking the test environment: it uses a mock build of Scheduler to flush rendering tasks, and Jest's mock timers to flush Suspense placeholders. --- In this first commit, I've added the internal forks of `act` and migrated our tests to use them. The public `act` implementation is unaffected for now; I will leave refactoring/clean-up for a later step.

Is this suppression actually necessary?

I'll check, doesn't seem like it

Ah it's because it uses destructuring to get the nth item, but the previous items aren't referenced. I'll switch it to regular array indexing instead.

Adds back the `TestUtils.act` implementation that I had removed in facebook#19745. This version of `act` is implemented in "userspace" (i.e. not the reconciler), so it doesn't add to the production bundle size. I had removed this in facebook#19745 in favor of the `act` exported by the reconciler because I thought we would remove support for `act` in production in the impending major release. (It currently warns.) However, we've since decided to continue supporting `act` in prod for now, so that it doesn't block people from upgrading to v17. We'll drop support in a future major release. So, to avoid bloating the production bundle size, we need to move the public version of `act` back to "userspace", like it was before. This doesn't negate the main goal of facebook#19745, though, which was to decouple the public version(s) of `act` from the internal one that we use to test React itself.

In the next major release, we intend to drop support for using the `act` testing helper in production. (It already fires a warning.) The rationale is that, in order for `act` to work, you must either mock the testing environment or add extra logic at runtime. Mocking the testing environment isn't ideal because it requires extra set up for the user. Extra logic at runtime is fine only in development mode — we don't want to slow down the production builds. Since most people only run their tests in development mode, dropping support for production should be fine; if there's demand, we can add it back later using a special testing build that is identical to the production build except for the additional testing logic. One blocker for removing production support is that we currently use `act` to test React itself. We must test React in both development and production modes. So, the solution is to fork `act` into separate public and internal implementations: - *public implementation of `act`* – exposed to users, only works in development mode, uses special runtime logic, does not support partial rendering - *internal implementation of `act`* – private, works in both development and productionm modes, only used by the React Core test suite, uses no special runtime logic, supports partial rendering (i.e. `toFlushAndYieldThrough`) The internal implementation should mostly match the public implementation's behavior, but since it's a private API, it doesn't have to match exactly. It works by mocking the test environment: it uses a mock build of Scheduler to flush rendering tasks, and Jest's mock timers to flush Suspense placeholders. --- In this first commit, I've added the internal forks of `act` and migrated our tests to use them. The public `act` implementation is unaffected for now; I will leave refactoring/clean-up for a later step.

Adds back the `TestUtils.act` implementation that I had removed in facebook#19745. This version of `act` is implemented in "userspace" (i.e. not the reconciler), so it doesn't add to the production bundle size. I had removed this in facebook#19745 in favor of the `act` exported by the reconciler because I thought we would remove support for `act` in production in the impending major release. (It currently warns.) However, we've since decided to continue supporting `act` in prod for now, so that it doesn't block people from upgrading to v17. We'll drop support in a future major release. So, to avoid bloating the production bundle size, we need to move the public version of `act` back to "userspace", like it was before. This doesn't negate the main goal of facebook#19745, though, which was to decouple the public version(s) of `act` from the internal one that we use to test React itself.

In this first PR, I've added the internal forks of
actand migrated our tests to use them. The publicactimplementation is unaffected for now; I will leave refactoring/clean-up for a later step.There is an internal version of
actfor each of React DOM, React Test Renderer, and React Noop, since we use all three to test React itself. These are intentionally non-DRY. Not so much for performance reasons (these are only used for our internal tests), just that it's too early to pick an abstraction.
