Jest is a batteries-included framework. Due to its fully-featured nature and large surface area, we can compare it to test runners (Mocha), assertion libraries (Chai, ShouldJS, power-assert, expect.js), integrated test-runner + assertion libraries (QUnit, Protractor, Tape, AVA, Jasmine), stubbing libraries (Sinon), module interception libraries (Proxyquire), coverage tools (NYC, Istanbul). Want to know more about why you should use Jest? Check out "What is Jest and why should I use it?" for the details.
