As a JavaScript developer, you’re likely familiar with the concept of inheritance, where a child class inherits properties and methods from a parent class. While this powerful feature can simplify your code and promote code reuse, it also introduces unique challenges when it comes to testing.
In this article, we’ll explore various testing strategies to ensure the reliability and maintainability of your inherited classes.

When dealing with inherited classes, you need to consider both the specific behavior of the child class and the inherited behavior from the parent class. This means that your testing approach should cover the following aspects:
1. Verifying Inherited Behavior
Ensure that the child class correctly inherits the expected properties and methods from the parent class. This includes testing the functionality of the inherited elements and ensuring that they behave as expected.
