+
+`react-testing-library` provides the
+[`testHook`](/docs/react-testing-library/api#testhook) utility to test custom
+hooks.
+
+> **Note**
+>
+> This is the recommended way to test reusable custom react hooks. It is not
+> however recommended to use the testHook utility to test single-use custom
+> hooks. Typically those are better tested by testing the component that is
+> using it.
+
+## Using `result`
+
+Testing the last returned value of a hook using the `result` ref
+
+```jsx
+function useCounter({ initialCount = 0, step = 1 } = {}) {
+  const [count, setCount] = React.useState(initialCount)
+  const increment = () => setCount(c => c + step)
+  const decrement = () => setCount(c => c - step)
+  return { count, increment, decrement }
+}
+```
+
+```jsx
+test('returns result ref with latest result from hook execution', () => {
+  const { result } = testHook(useCounter)
+  expect(result.current.count).toBe(0)
+  act(() => {
+    result.current.increment()
+  })
+  expect(result.current.count).toBe(1)
+})
+```
+
+## State
+
+Testing a hook that provides state
+
+```jsx
+import { useState } from 'react'
+
+export function useCounter({ initialCount = 0, step = 1 } = {}) {
+  const [count, setCount] = useState(initialCount)
+  const increment = () => setCount(c => c + step)
+  const decrement = () => setCount(c => c - step)
+  return { count, increment, decrement }
+}
+```
+
+```jsx
+import { testHook, act, cleanup } from 'react-testing-library'
+afterEach(cleanup)
+
+describe('useCounter', () => {
+  test('accepts default initial values', () => {
+    let count
+    testHook(() => ({ count } = useCounter()))
+
+    expect(count).toBe(0)
+  })
+
+  test('accepts a default initial value for `count`', () => {
+    let count
+    testHook(() => ({ count } = useCounter({})))
+
+    expect(count).toBe(0)
+  })
+
+  test('provides an `increment` function', () => {
+    let count, increment
+    testHook(() => ({ count, increment } = useCounter({ step: 2 })))
+
+    expect(count).toBe(0)
+    act(() => {
+      increment()
+    })
+    expect(count).toBe(2)
+  })
+
+  test('provides an `decrement` function', () => {
+    let count, decrement
+    testHook(() => ({ count, decrement } = useCounter({ step: 2 })))
+
+    expect(count).toBe(0)
+    act(() => {
+      decrement()
+    })
+    expect(count).toBe(-2)
+  })
+
+  test('accepts a default initial value for `step`', () => {
+    let count, increment
+    testHook(() => ({ count, increment } = useCounter({})))
+
+    expect(count).toBe(0)
+    act(() => {
+      increment()
+    })
+    expect(count).toBe(1)
+  })
+})
+```
+
+## Unmount Side-Effects
+
+Using the `unmount` function to check useEffect behavior when unmounting
+
+```jsx
+import { useState, useEffect } from 'react'
+
+export function useDocumentTitle(title) {
+  const [originalTitle, setOriginalTitle] = useState(document.title)
+  useEffect(() => {
+    setOriginalTitle(document.title)
+    document.title = title
+    return () => {
+      document.title = originalTitle
+    }
+  }, [title])
+}
+```
+
+```jsx
+describe('useDocumentTitle', () => {
+  test('sets a title', () => {
+    document.title = 'original title'
+    testHook(() => {
+      useDocumentTitle('modified title')
+    })
+
+    expect(document.title).toBe('modified title')
+  })
+
+  test('returns to original title when component is unmounted', () => {
+    document.title = 'original title'
+    const { unmount } = testHook(() => {
+      useDocumentTitle('modified title')
+    })
+
+    unmount()
+    expect(document.title).toBe('original title')
+  })
+})
+```
+
+## Rerender Side-Effects
+
+Using the `rerender` function to test calling useEffect multiple times
+
+```jsx
+import { useEffect } from 'react'
+
+export function useCall(callback, deps) {
+  useEffect(() => {
+    callback()
+  }, deps)
+}
+```
+
+```jsx
+describe('useCall', () => {
+  test('calls once on render', () => {
+    const spy = jest.fn()
+    testHook(() => {
+      useCall(spy, [])
+    })
+    expect(spy).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1)
+  })
+
+  test('calls again if deps change', () => {
+    let deps = [false]
+    const spy = jest.fn()
+    const { rerender } = testHook(() => {
+      useCall(spy, deps)
+    })
+    expect(spy).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1)
+
+    deps = [true]
+    rerender()
+    expect(spy).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(2)
+  })
+
+  test('does not call again if deps are the same', () => {
+    let deps = [false]
+    const spy = jest.fn()
+    const { rerender } = testHook(() => {
+      useCall(spy, deps)
+    })
+    expect(spy).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1)
+
+    deps = [false]
+    rerender()
+    expect(spy).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1)
+  })
+})
+```

@@ -271,3 +271,69 @@ This is a light wrapper around the
 [`react-dom/test-utils` `act` function](https://reactjs.org/docs/test-utils.html#act).
 All it does is forward all arguments to the act function if your version of
 react supports `act`.
+
+## `testHook`
+
+`testHook` is a utility to test custom hooks. It is designed to help test
+reusable hooks in isolation.
+
+You should also write integration tests for components using custom hooks, and
+one-off hooks should be tested as part of the component instead.
+
+**Usage**
+
+```jsx
+import { testHook } from 'react-testing-libary'
+
+testHook(hook[, renderOptions])
+```
+
+**Arguments**
+
+- `hook` customHook to test
+- `renderOptions` options object to pass to the underlying `render`. See
+  [render options](#render-options). This is mostly useful for wrapping the hook
+  with a context provider.
+
+**Returns**
+
+```jsx
+const { rerender, unmount, result } = testHook(hook)
+```
+
+- `rerender` Call this function to render the wrapper again, i.e., to test that
+  the hook handles props changes
+- `unmount` Call this to unmount the component, i.e., to test side-effects and
+  cleanup behavior
+- `result` An object that acts like a React ref with a `current` property
+  pointing to the last value the hook returned. For example:
+  `expect(result.current.count).toBe(0)`
+
+**Example**
+
+```jsx
+// Example custom hook
+function useCounter({ initialCount = 0, step = 1 } = {}) {
+  const [count, setCount] = React.useState(initialCount)
+  const increment = () => setCount(c => c + step)
+  const decrement = () => setCount(c => c - step)
+  return { count, increment, decrement }
+}
+```
+
+```jsx
+// Test using the `result` ref
+test('returns result ref with latest result from hook execution', () => {
+  const { result } = testHook(useCounter)
+
+  expect(result.current.count).toBe(0)
+  act(() => result.current.increment())
+  expect(result.current.count).toBe(1)
+})
+```

+title: React Hooks Are Supported
+author: Alex Krolick
+authorURL: http://github.com/alexkrolick
+---
+
+[Hooks have been released in React 16.8](https://reactjs.org/blog/2019/02/06/react-v16.8.0.html#testing-hooks)
+and they are supported out of the box by `react-testing-library`!
+
+Because `react-testing-library` only uses the external interface of your React
+components, hooks work right away! If you rewrite a class component with hooks
+your tests should still pass.
+
+For unit testing custom hooks, we've also added a `testHook` utility. Check out
+the [docs for `testHook`](/docs/react-testing-library/api#testhook). Thanks to
+[@donavon](https://github.com/donavon) for the PR.
