Jest methods not available in .spec.js files

Question

I started a simple project with npm init, then added jest via

npm install jest

How do I make methods like describe() , test() , etc., available in.spec.js and.test.js files?

Answer 1

The jest methods will be available when you run jest .

Probably your ESLint configuration is not configured for jest and shows that these globals are missing, you can configure them in the eslint configuration :

"env": {
    "jest/globals": true
}
