+# Expo Router Testing
+
+This reference covers testing patterns for applications using Expo Router.
+
+## Setup
+
+### Required Imports
+
+```typescript
+import { renderRouter, screen } from "expo-router/testing-library";
+import userEvent from "@testing-library/user-event";
+```
+
+### Why renderRouter Over render
+
+When testing components that use Expo Router features (navigation, params, pathname), use `renderRouter` instead of `render`:
+
+```typescript
+// Standard render - for components without routing
+import { render } from "@testing-library/react-native";
+render(<PureComponent />);
+
+// renderRouter - for components using expo-router
+import { renderRouter } from "expo-router/testing-library";
+renderRouter({
+  index: () => <HomeScreen />,
+});
+```
+
+## Basic Usage
+
+### Single Route Testing
+
+```typescript
+test("renders home screen", async () => {
+  renderRouter({
+    index: () => <HomeScreen />,
+  });
+
+  expect(screen.getByRole("heading", { name: "Welcome" })).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+```
+
+### Multiple Routes
+
+```typescript
+test("navigates between screens", async () => {
+  const user = userEvent.setup();
+
+  renderRouter({
+    index: () => <HomeScreen />,
+    profile: () => <ProfileScreen />,
+    settings: () => <SettingsScreen />,
+  });
+
+  // Start on home
+  expect(screen.getByText("Home")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+
+  // Navigate to profile
+  await user.press(screen.getByRole("button", { name: "Go to Profile" }));
+  expect(await screen.findByText("Profile")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+```
+
+### Dynamic Routes
+
+```typescript
+test("displays player details", async () => {
+  renderRouter(
+    {
+      index: () => <PlayerList />,
+      "players/[id]": () => <PlayerDetail />,
+    },
+    {
+      initialUrl: "/players/123",
+    }
+  );
+
+  expect(await screen.findByText("Player 123")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+```
+
+## Initial URL
+
+### Setting Initial Route
+
+```typescript
+renderRouter(
+  {
+    index: () => <Home />,
+    profile: () => <Profile />,
+    "settings/account": () => <AccountSettings />,
+  },
+  {
+    initialUrl: "/settings/account",
+  }
+);
+```
+
+### With Query Parameters
+
+```typescript
+renderRouter(
+  {
+    "search/[query]": () => <SearchResults />,
+  },
+  {
+    initialUrl: "/search/players?filter=active&sort=name",
+  }
+);
+```
+
+## Route Mocking
+
+### Inline Mock Components
+
+```typescript
+renderRouter({
+  index: jest.fn(() => <Text>Home</Text>),
+  about: jest.fn(() => <Text>About</Text>),
+});
+```
+
+### Null Components (Placeholder Routes)
+
+Use null for routes that don't need rendering in this test:
+
+```typescript
+renderRouter({
+  index: () => <HomeScreen />,
+  profile: null, // Route exists but won't render anything
+  settings: null,
+});
+```
+
+### String Array Shorthand
+
+Create mock routes quickly:
+
+```typescript
+// Creates null components for each route
+renderRouter(["index", "profile", "settings", "help"]);
+```
+
+## Navigation Testing
+
+### Testing Navigation Actions
+
+```typescript
+test("navigates on button press", async () => {
+  const user = userEvent.setup();
+
+  renderRouter({
+    index: () => (
+      <Pressable onPress={() => router.push("/details")}>
+        <Text>View Details</Text>
+      </Pressable>
+    ),
+    details: () => <Text>Details Screen</Text>,
+  });
+
+  await user.press(screen.getByText("View Details"));
+  expect(await screen.findByText("Details Screen")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+```
+
+### Testing Back Navigation
+
+```typescript
+test("goes back to previous screen", async () => {
+  const user = userEvent.setup();
+
+  renderRouter(
+    {
+      index: () => <Text>Home</Text>,
+      details: () => (
+        <Pressable onPress={() => router.back()}>
+          <Text>Go Back</Text>
+        </Pressable>
+      ),
+    },
+    {
+      initialUrl: "/details",
+    }
+  );
+
+  await user.press(screen.getByText("Go Back"));
+  expect(await screen.findByText("Home")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+```
+
+### Testing Replace Navigation
+
+```typescript
+test("replaces current route", async () => {
+  const user = userEvent.setup();
+
+  renderRouter(
+    {
+      login: () => (
+        <Pressable onPress={() => router.replace("/dashboard")}>
+          <Text>Login</Text>
+        </Pressable>
+      ),
+      dashboard: () => <Text>Dashboard</Text>,
+    },
+    {
+      initialUrl: "/login",
+    }
+  );
+
+  await user.press(screen.getByText("Login"));
+  expect(await screen.findByText("Dashboard")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+```
+
+## Testing Route Params
+
+### useLocalSearchParams
+
+```typescript
+// Component using params
+const PlayerDetail = () => {
+  const { id } = useLocalSearchParams<{ id: string }>();
+  return <Text>Player ID: {id}</Text>;
+};
+
+test("displays player from params", async () => {
+  renderRouter(
+    {
+      "players/[id]": () => <PlayerDetail />,
+    },
+    {
+      initialUrl: "/players/456",
+    }
+  );
+
+  expect(screen.getByText("Player ID: 456")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+```
+
+### useGlobalSearchParams
+
+```typescript
+const SearchWithFilters = () => {
+  const { query, filter } = useGlobalSearchParams<{
+    query: string;
+    filter: string;
+  }>();
+  return <Text>{`Search: ${query}, Filter: ${filter}`}</Text>;
+};
+
+test("reads global search params", async () => {
+  renderRouter(
+    {
+      "search/[query]": () => <SearchWithFilters />,
+    },
+    {
+      initialUrl: "/search/players?filter=active",
+    }
+  );
+
+  expect(screen.getByText("Search: players, Filter: active")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+```
+
+## Testing Pathname
+
+### usePathname
+
+```typescript
+const BreadCrumb = () => {
+  const pathname = usePathname();
+  return <Text>Current: {pathname}</Text>;
+};
+
+test("displays current pathname", async () => {
+  renderRouter(
+    {
+      "settings/account": () => <BreadCrumb />,
+    },
+    {
+      initialUrl: "/settings/account",
+    }
+  );
+
+  expect(screen.getByText("Current: /settings/account")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+```
+
+### Asserting Pathname in Tests
+
+```typescript
+test("navigates to correct path", async () => {
+  const user = userEvent.setup();
+
+  renderRouter({
+    index: () => <HomeWithNavigation />,
+    "players/[id]": () => <PlayerDetail />,
+  });
+
+  await user.press(screen.getByRole("button", { name: "View Player 123" }));
+
+  // Assert the pathname
+  expect(screen).toHavePathname("/players/123");
+});
+```
+
+## Testing Segments
+
+### useSegments
+
+```typescript
+const SegmentDisplay = () => {
+  const segments = useSegments();
+  return <Text>Segments: {segments.join("/")}</Text>;
+};
+
+test("displays route segments", async () => {
+  renderRouter(
+    {
+      "settings/account/security": () => <SegmentDisplay />,
+    },
+    {
+      initialUrl: "/settings/account/security",
+    }
+  );
+
+  expect(screen.getByText("Segments: settings/account/security")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+```
+
+## Layout Testing
+
+### Testing with Layout Components
+
+```typescript
+const RootLayout = () => (
+  <View>
+    <Header />
+    <Slot />
+    <Footer />
+  </View>
+);
+
+test("layout wraps content", async () => {
+  renderRouter({
+    _layout: () => <RootLayout />,
+    index: () => <Text>Home Content</Text>,
+  });
+
+  expect(screen.getByText("Header")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+  expect(screen.getByText("Home Content")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+  expect(screen.getByText("Footer")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+```
+
+### Tab Navigation Layout
+
+```typescript
+test("tab navigation works", async () => {
+  const user = userEvent.setup();
+
+  renderRouter({
+    "(tabs)/_layout": () => <TabsLayout />,
+    "(tabs)/home": () => <Text>Home Tab</Text>,
+    "(tabs)/search": () => <Text>Search Tab</Text>,
+    "(tabs)/profile": () => <Text>Profile Tab</Text>,
+  });
+
+  // Switch tabs
+  await user.press(screen.getByRole("tab", { name: "Search" }));
+  expect(await screen.findByText("Search Tab")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+```
+
+## Protected Routes Testing
+
+### Authentication Flow
+
+```typescript
+const AuthenticatedRoute = () => {
+  const { user } = useAuth();
+
+  if (!user) {
+    return <Redirect href="/login" />;
+  }
+
+  return <Text>Protected Content</Text>;
+};
+
+test("redirects unauthenticated users", async () => {
+  mockUseAuth.mockReturnValue({ user: null });
+
+  renderRouter(
+    {
+      dashboard: () => <AuthenticatedRoute />,
+      login: () => <Text>Login Page</Text>,
+    },
+    {
+      initialUrl: "/dashboard",
+    }
+  );
+
+  expect(await screen.findByText("Login Page")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+
+test("shows content for authenticated users", async () => {
+  mockUseAuth.mockReturnValue({ user: { id: "1" } });
+
+  renderRouter(
+    {
+      dashboard: () => <AuthenticatedRoute />,
+    },
+    {
+      initialUrl: "/dashboard",
+    }
+  );
+
+  expect(screen.getByText("Protected Content")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+```
+
+## File Location Rules
+
+### Never Put Tests in app/ Directory
+
+Expo Router treats all files in `app/` as routes. Test files must be outside:
+
+```
+✅ Correct structure:
+__tests__/
+  features/
+    home/
+      HomeScreen.test.tsx
+  components/
+    Button.test.tsx
+features/
+  home/
+    components/
+      HomeScreen.tsx
+
+❌ Wrong structure:
+app/
+  __tests__/          # Tests will be treated as routes!
+    home.test.tsx
+```
+
+### Recommended Test Location Patterns
+
+```
+# Option 1: Root __tests__ directory
+__tests__/
+  features/
+    players/
+      PlayerList.test.tsx
+      PlayerDetail.test.tsx
+
+# Option 2: Feature-level __tests__
+features/
+  players/
+    __tests__/
+      PlayerList.test.tsx
+      PlayerDetail.test.tsx
+    components/
+      PlayerList.tsx
+      PlayerDetail.tsx
+```
+
+## Common Issues
+
+### Route Not Found
+
+```typescript
+// Error: Route not found
+renderRouter({
+  index: () => <Home />,
+});
+// Then navigating to /profile that doesn't exist
+
+// Solution: Define all routes needed for the test
+renderRouter({
+  index: () => <Home />,
+  profile: () => <Profile />, // Add missing route
+});
+```
+
+### Async Navigation
+
+```typescript
+// Issue: Assertion runs before navigation completes
+await user.press(navigationButton);
+expect(screen.getByText("New Screen")).toBeOnTheScreen(); // May fail
+
+// Solution: Use findBy for async assertions
+await user.press(navigationButton);
+expect(await screen.findByText("New Screen")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+```
+
+### useRouter Outside Router Context
+
+```typescript
+// Error: useRouter must be used within a Router
+render(<ComponentUsingRouter />);
+
+// Solution: Use renderRouter
+renderRouter({
+  index: () => <ComponentUsingRouter />,
+});
+```
+
+## Integration with Other Providers
+
+### Wrapping with Apollo and Other Providers
+
+```typescript
+const Wrapper = ({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) => (
+  <MockedProvider mocks={graphqlMocks}>
+    <ThemeProvider>{children}</ThemeProvider>
+  </MockedProvider>
+);
+
+test("works with multiple providers", async () => {
+  renderRouter(
+    {
+      index: () => (
+        <Wrapper>
+          <HomeWithData />
+        </Wrapper>
+      ),
+    }
+  );
+
+  expect(await screen.findByText("Data loaded")).toBeOnTheScreen();
+});
+```
+
+### Custom renderRouter Wrapper
+
+```typescript
+import { renderRouter as baseRenderRouter } from "expo-router/testing-library";
+
+const customRenderRouter = (
+  routes: Parameters<typeof baseRenderRouter>[0],
+  options?: Parameters<typeof baseRenderRouter>[1]
+) => {
+  return baseRenderRouter(routes, {
+    ...options,
+    wrapper: ({ children }) => (
+      <AllProviders>{children}</AllProviders>
+    ),
+  });
+};
+
+export { customRenderRouter as renderRouter };
+```
