how to use the stubobject function from the lodash library in typescript

Here's an example of how to use stubObject function from the lodash library in TypeScript:

index.ts
import { stubObject } from 'lodash';

describe('MyComponent', () => {
  it('should call myFunction with an object', () => {
    const myFunction = jest.fn();
    const myObject = stubObject();
    
    // Call the function with the stubbed object
    myFunction(myObject);
    
    expect(myFunction).toHaveBeenCalledWith(myObject);
  });
});

In this example, we are stubbing an object using the stubObject function from the lodash library. Then, we are passing this stubbed object as an argument to myFunction and checking that the function was called with the expected argument using a Jest mock function.

This is useful for unit testing where we want to isolate the code being tested and avoid any side effects from using real objects. By using stubObject, we can create a dummy object with the same properties and methods as the real object, but without any implementation.
