Jest / React - 如何在单元测试中使用全局对象？

Question

I use CommonJS modules with require() except React, which is global:

// I don't want require React in every module:
// var React = require("react");

var MyComponent = React.createClass({ // React is global here
});

When running a unit test on MyComponent, Jest can't find React. Is there a way to tell Jest to insert a global React object? (I use npm and gulp-browserify.)

Works for me with the following settings.

// package.json

"jest": {
  "scriptPreprocessor": "preprocessor.js",
  "unmockedModulePathPatterns": [
    "react"
  ],
  "setupEnvScriptFile": "before_test.js"
}

// preprocessor.js

var ReactTools = require('react-tools');

module.exports = {
    process: function(src) {
        return ReactTools.transform(src);
    }
};

// before_test.js

React = require("react"); // Global React object
