I didn't mean an estimation for replacing a Java backend, but rather how much time will pass until Node will be considered a common and valid alternative to Java for building the business logic of an application.
I think "guy" is quite neutral, and also "dude", and *also* "man" in neutral contexts (i.e., not opposed to "woman"), but still this isn't about JavaScript.
How long until Node can actually and effectively replace a Java backend, though? And all of its business logic?
Talking about a complete JavaScript full stack, even in the business area.

It's an odd situation here.
While React - the library for which Jest was conceived - is basically just a virtual DOM library and so it's very basic, lately the community is shifting from the highly customizable and pluggable standard of tools (like Gulp, PostCSS or Mocha's ecosystem) to more battery-included solutions (like webpack and Jest) that relieve developers the burden of choosing, setting up and maintaining a boatload of plugins.
At least that's what I feel about the web dev community right now.
