Jest has a CLI option to run only changed files (based on the git repository status). The command line jest --onlyChanged becomes programmatically:

jest.runCLI({'onlyChanged': true}, __dirname, function (success) {...});

Using the terminal, jest uses non-hyphenated options to specified filenames:

  • jest test1 runs only test1.js
  • jest test1 test2 runs test1.js and test2.js

jest-cli uses optimist to parse options and non-hyphenated option are mapped to the underscore option (_):

  • jest.runCLI({'_': ['test1']}, __dirname, function (success) {...}); runs only test1.js
  • jest.runCLI({'_': ['test1', 'test2']}, __dirname, function (success) {...}); runs test1.js and test2.js
