How to set a test for multiple fetches with Promise.all using jest

Question

I'm using jest for my tests. I'm using react and redux and I have this action:

function getData(id, notify) {
 return (dispatch, ...) => {
   dispatch(anotherFunction());
   Promise.all(['resource1', 'resource2', 'resource3'])
   .then(([response1,response2,response3]) => {
        // ... handle responses
    })
   .catch(error => { dispatch(handleError(error)); }
 };
}

I've been looking for into the jest documentation how to set a test for this action, but I was unable to find a way. I tried myself something like this:

it('test description', (done) => {
  const expectedActions = [{type: {...}, payload: {...}},{type: {...}, payload: {...}},...];
  fetchMock.get('resource1', ...);
  fetchMock.get('resource2', ...);
  fetchMock.get('resource3', ...);
  // ... then the rest of the test calls
});

Unsuccessfully. So how should I proceed?

You can tell Jest to wait for the promise to resolve by returning the promise in the callback. See this section here for more info.

it('should fetch some food', () => {
  const fetchItem1 = () => fetchData1().then(data => {
    expect(data).toBe('peanut butter');
  })
  const fetchItem2 = () => fetchData2().then(data => {
    expect(data).toBe('boiled egg');
  })
  const fetchItem3 = () => fetchData3().then(data => {
    expect(data).toBe('fried salad');
  })

  return Promise.all([fetchItem1(), fetchItem2(), fetchItem3()])
    .then(() => runOtherTests());
});
