Upgrade package @testing-library/user-event from 12.8.3 to 14.5.2

[palisadoes]

Rationale

1. This was previously attempted by the automated dependabot job but the PR tests failed.
2. This issue has been created to fix the issue as there may be multiple dependency requirements that need updating

This is a major revision upgrade and many files may need to be updated to the new syntax, functions, methods and classes

Task

1. Upgrade @testing-library/user-event from 12.8.3 to 14.5.2.
2. Remove this package if it is:
   1. unused
   2. unnecessary. For example:
      1. the functionality can be maintained by using another package we are already using,
      2. If we are using only one function or class in the package you can consider replacing it with code that resides in this repository
      3. It is used by a feature that the end user is unlikely to ever use

Can I help in this issue ?

[sahil-idk]

After Updating the package to 14.5.2 i faced some act() issues with warnings that dependabot also faced

https://github.com/PalisadoesFoundation/talawa-admin/actions/runs/9736356167/job/26866929956?pr=2065

Then after Going through the testing library documentation it shows the requirement of testing-library/dom package but once i run the tests again i encounter almost half tests failing which i am working on and any assistance will be appreciated
@palisadoes @varshith257

[palisadoes]

Please ask the #talawa-admin slack channel for assistance

[sahil-idk]

@palisadoes i asked the slack , didnt get response but what i figured is the new version of user event requires a @testing-library/dom package which i installed but it leads to fail in tests as the libraray's test writing syntax had many changes in 13.5 and from there to 14.5 as well ( u can check them in @testing-library/user-event repository) which will require modifying those tests , so what should be the next course of action ?

[varshith257]

@sahil-idk Yes, there are major changes from version 13. Refactor the changes needed according to docs of user
-event library to update to latest version 14

@sahil-idk Are you still working on this?

I've been working on updating a package to a specific version, but now there are numerous changes in the test files. With around 50 failed tests to fix, it's becoming quite overwhelming. Could you suggest a more efficient solution for handling this situation?
