 All Jest matchers are [extensively documented here](http://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/api.html#expect-value).<br>
 Nevertheless you can use a third-party assertion library like [Chai](http://chaijs.com/) if you want to, as described below.
 
+Additionally, you might find [jest-enzyme](https://github.com/blainekasten/enzyme-matchers) helpful to simplify your tests with readable matchers. The above `contains` code can be written simpler with jest-enzyme.
+
+```js
+expect(wrapper).toContainReact(welcome)
+```
+
+To setup jest-enzyme with Create React App, follow the instructions for [initializing your test environment](#initializing-test-environment) to import `jest-enzyme`.
+
+```js
+// src/setupTests.js
+import 'jest-enzyme';
+```
+

 ### Using Third Party Assertion Libraries
 
 We recommend that you use `expect()` for assertions and `jest.fn()` for spies. If you are having issues with them please [file those against Jest](https://github.com/facebook/jest/issues/new), and we’ll fix them. We intend to keep making them better for React, supporting, for example, [pretty-printing React elements as JSX](https://github.com/facebook/jest/pull/1566).
