How can I import Jest?

Question

I would like to get rid of global variables in my Jest test code. Specifically describe, it and expect:

describe('Welcome (Snapshot)', () => {   it('Welcome renders hello world', () => {      ...   }); }); 

So I tried to add:

import {describe,it} from 'jest'; 

and

import jest from 'jest';  jest.describe( ...   jest.it( ... 

And other variations...

But no luck.

How should I get it working?

Answer 1

The simplest solution for this is adding jest: true to your env configuration in ESLint, like so:

"env": {   "browser": true,   "node": true,   "jasmine": true,   "jest": true,   "es6": true },
