Dynamic imports in Jest produce: SyntaxError: Unexpected token import

Question

Can't figure out how to resolve these errors yet, Jest is complaining about dynamic imports like these:

const importModules = Promise.all([
      import('containers/HomePage/reducer'),
      import('containers/HomePage/sagas'),
      import('containers/HomePage'),
    ]);

Error message:

F:\react-boilerplate\app\store.js:49
      import('./reducers').then(function (reducerModule) {
      ^^^^^^
SyntaxError: Unexpected token import

Installing babel-plugin-dynamic-import-node solved our problem. In addition, make sure that babylon (babel dependency) is at least 6.12.0.

Also, we had a problem with Travis build because Travis cached node_modules and old babylon with it:

$ npm ls babylon
[email protected] /home/travis/build/mxstbr/react-boilerplate
├─┬ [email protected]
│ └── [email protected]
├─┬ [email protected]
│ └── [email protected] 
├─┬ [email protected]
│ └─┬ [email protected]
│   └── [email protected] 

, so we had to turn the cache off with: cache: false
