Research direction

Start with the Testing Recipes “Events” section at the linked documentation URL and inspect the toggle.js and toggle.test.js examples. Reproduce the failure by copying them into a fresh sample project and running npm run test. Done means the documented example passes and its expectations match the toggle component's initial state.

Description

Hi, I think there's a little bug in the example code in the Testing Recipes section.

https://reactjs.org/docs/testing-recipes.html#events

When I copy the code for toggle.js and toggle.test.js into a fresh sample project and run npm run test, I get a failed test.

It looks like the expectations are backwards vs. the initial state in the toggle component.
