Test fails due to react-native-permissions

Question

Test fails due to react-native-permissions

Output:

react-native-permissions: NativeModule.RNPermissions is null. To fix this issue try these steps:
• If you are using CocoaPods on iOS, run pod install in the ios directory and then clean, rebuild and re-run the app. You may also need to re-open Xcode to get the new pods.
• If you are getting this error while unit testing you need to mock the native module. You can use this to get started: https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-permissions/blob/master/mock.js
If none of these fix the issue, please open an issue on the Github repository: https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-permissions

I have found 2 ways to get rid of issue

1.mock react-native-qrcode-scanner inside the test file , this is solution for single file as shown below write mock of react-native-qrcode-scanner on top of test file after imports

jest.mock('react-native-qrcode-scanner', () => jest.fn());

2. mock react-native-qrcode-scanner inside the jest.setup.js file in root dir of project, this is solution for all tests files as shown below

write mock of react-native-qrcode-scanner inside jest.setup.js file in root dir as shown below

jest.mock(
  'react-native-qrcode-scanner/node_modules/react-native-permissions',
  () => require('react-native-permissions/mock'),
);
