Is there a request or desire to set up testing, write unit tests for the project?

Yes, setting up testing and writing unit tests for the project are highly desirable. This allows:

• Ensuring stability and reliability of the code.
• Quickly identifying regressions when changes are made.
• Improving architecture and design through testability.
• Increasing confidence in the product quality.

For frontend, tools like Jest, Mocha, Jasmine for unit tests, as well as React Testing Library or Enzyme for React components are commonly used.

If there are no tests in the project, it is advisable to start by covering key functions and components, gradually expanding coverage. It is also important to set up CI/CD so that tests run automatically upon commits.

Thus, the desire and request for testing are good signs of the project's and team's maturity.
