import { ComponentName } from './ComponentName'

describe('ComponentName', () => {
  it('renders correctly', () => {
    render(<ComponentName />)
    expect(screen.getByRole('...')).toBeInTheDocument()
  })

  it('handles user interaction', async () => {
    const user = userEvent.setup()
    render(<ComponentName />)
    await user.click(screen.getByRole('button'))
    expect(...).toBe(...)
  })
})
