Test only the affected code in your Nx workspace
$ npx nx affected:test
try on your machine

The command "npx nx affected:test" is used in the context of a project managed with Nx, a set of extensible dev tools for monorepo architecture.

The "npx" command is a utility that allows executing packages installed in the local node_modules directory, where "nx" is one such package installed within the project.

The "affected:test" part of the command is a task performed by Nx. "Affected" refers to a concept where Nx analyzes changes made in the codebase since the last commit and determines which affected projects, files, or tasks need to be executed or run. "Test" refers to running tests for the affected code.

By running "npx nx affected:test", Nx will analyze the code changes and execute any necessary tests for the affected parts of the project. This command helps in optimizing the time and resources required for running tests by only executing them on the affected components.
