# Redux framework
Grafana uses [Redux Toolkit](https://redux-toolkit.js.org/) to handle Redux boilerplate code.
> **Note:** Some of our reducers are used by Angular; therefore, consider state to be mutable for those reducers.
## Test functionality
Here's how to test the functioning of your Redux reducers.
### reducerTester
Use the Fluent API framework to simplify the testing of reducers.
#### Usage
Example of `reducerTester` in use:
```typescript
reducerTester()
.givenReducer(someReducer, initialState)
.whenActionIsDispatched(someAction('reducer tests'))
.thenStateShouldEqual({ ...initialState, data: 'reducer tests' });
```
#### Complex usage
Sometimes you encounter a _resulting state_ that contains properties that are hard to compare, such as `Dates`, but you still want to evaluate whether other props in state are correct.
In these cases, you can evaluate individual properties by using `thenStatePredicateShouldEqual` function on `reducerTester` that will return the resulting state. For example:
```typescript
reducerTester()
.givenReducer(someReducer, initialState)
.whenActionIsDispatched(someAction('reducer tests'))
.thenStatePredicateShouldEqual((resultingState) => {
expect(resultingState.data).toEqual('reducer tests');
return true;
});
```
### thunkTester
Here's a Fluent API function that simplifies the testing of thunks.
#### Usage
Example of `thunkTester` in use:
```typescript
const dispatchedActions = await thunkTester(initialState).givenThunk(someThunk).whenThunkIsDispatched(arg1, arg2, arg3);
expect(dispatchedActions).toEqual([someAction('reducer tests')]);
```
## Typing of connected props
It is possible to infer connected props automatically from `mapStateToProps` and `mapDispatchToProps` using a helper type `ConnectedProps` from Redux. For this to work properly, split the `connect` call into two parts like so:
```typescript
import { connect, ConnectedProps } from 'react-redux';
const mapStateToProps = (state: StoreState) => {
return {
location: state.location,
initDone: state.panelEditor.initDone,
uiState: state.panelEditor.ui,
};
};
const mapDispatchToProps = {
updateLocation,
initPanelEditor,
panelEditorCleanUp,
setDiscardChanges,
updatePanelEditorUIState,
updateTimeZoneForSession,
};
const connector = connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps);
type Props = OwnProps & ConnectedProps<typeof connector>;
class PanelEditorUnconnected extends PureComponent<Props> {}
export const PanelEditor = connector(PanelEditorUnconnected);
```
For more examples, refer to the [Redux documentation](https://react-redux.js.org/using-react-redux/static-typing#inferring-the-connected-props-automatically).
