- [Jest matchers](./jest-matchers.md) - validate assumptions about your UI
- [User Event](./user-event.md) - simulate common user interactions like [`press`](./user-event.md#press) or [`type`](./user-event.md#type) in a realistic way
- [Fire Event](./fire-event.md) - simulate any component event in a simplified way purposes
- Misc APIs:
  - [`renderHook` function](./render-hook.md) - render hooks for testing
  - [Async utils](./async-utilities.md): `findBy*` queries, `waitFor`, `waitForElementToBeRemoved`
