> Do people generally write tests for these components?

Sure. React even ships with testing utilities to make that easier: http://facebook.github.io/react/docs/test-utils.html

Depends on the exact component. For pure components as part of bigger applications it's really quite easy, just render the component with a known dataset and see if it's got everything where things should be. Then again, that's similar to testing templates… most people don't really test their templates.

For self-contained "widget" components things are a bit harder, it's similar to testing DOM-based widgets really.
