LWC Test Creator

LWC Test Creator is an open-source VS Code extension built with JavaScript and the VS Code Extension API enabling users to quickly create boilerplate tests for Salesforce Lightning Web Components.

This extension creates a Lightning Web Component test template in the appropriate directory and only requires the user to enter the name of the Lightning Web Component as opposed to the path of the Lightning Web Component *.JS file or making the user change to the appropriate target directory while using the force:lightning:lwc:test:create CLI command.
