It's possible to check for a part of the subtree, without testing the entire returned tree. This allows you to test specific elements, without writing brittle tests that break when the structure changes. Assuming the following component output ```js class MyComponent extends React.Component { render () { return ( <div> <span className="top">one</span> <span className="middle">two</span> <span className="bottom">three</span> </div> ); } }; var component = TestUtils.renderIntoDocument( <MyComponent/> ); ``` ```js // This will pass, as `<span className="middle">two</span>` can be found in the component's output expect(component, 'to contain', <span>two</span>); ``` Notice that the extra `className="middle"` in the `<span className="middle">two</span>` is ignored, in a similar way to the `to have rendered` assertion. You can override this behaviour by using `'to contain exactly'`, and `'to contain with all children'` ```js // This will fail, as `<span>two</span>` cannot be found in the renderers output, due to // the missing `className="middle"` prop expect(component, 'to contain exactly', <span>two</span>); ``` ```output expected <MyComponent> <div> <span className="top">one</span> <span className="middle">two</span> <span className="bottom">three</span> </div> </MyComponent> to contain exactly <span>two</span> the best match was <span className="middle" // className should be removed > two </span> ``` The same thing applies to children for `'to contain'` as for `'to have rendered'`.
