ts-jest

ts-jest only prints out usage message

I cannot get it to run, at all.

ts-jest config:init initializes the config but every other command I can imagine just prints out an infuriatingly useless usage message:

Usage:
  ts-jest command [options] [...args]

The command “do your only job” does not seem to work. Obviously, I have something very basic wrong.

Solution

  • ts-jest’s job is apparently not to run the test, but just to re-write the configuration so it works with Typescript. You have to run jest yourself to actually do any testing...
