Typescript paths not resolving when running jest?


Attempting to convert this project over to jest using these instructions. I have everything working except for the files that use the paths configuration:

"paths": {
      "@fs/*": ["./src/*"], 
      "@test/*": ["./test/*"]
    }

It looks as if when the tests are run the import statements do not resolve and this is logged:

Cannot find module '@fs/container/validation/ValidationContext' from 'Core.spec.ts'

  1 | import { ValidationOptions } from "@fs/container/validation/ValidationOptions";
> 2 | import { ValidationContext } from "@fs/container/validation/ValidationContext";
    | ^
  3 | import { ValidationContainer } from "@fs/container/validation/ValidationContainer";
  4 | 
  5 | import { Core1 } from "@test/core/Core1";

  at Resolver.resolveModule (node_modules/jest-resolve/build/index.js:221:17)
  at Object.<anonymous> (test/core/Core.spec.ts:2:1)

Is there a way to get jest/ts-jest include the @paths while resolving imports?


Solution

  • jest can't honor tsconfig's path mapping as it's ts compiler time, so jest configuration should have corresponding modulenamemapper to resolve aliased paths.
