typescript cannot find name 'test' in vscode

Question

I'm trying to use jest in my typescript application.

When I run the command jest, it work fine.

yarn run v1.17.3
$ jest --coverage --verbose

C:\Users\hasee\Documents\Repository\c0-compiler>"node"  "C:\Users\hasee\Documents\Repository\c0-compiler\node_modules\.bin\\..\[email protected]@jest\bin\jest.js" 
--coverage --verbose
 PASS  tests/sum.test.ts (6.432s)
  √ add (3ms)

Ran all test suites.
Done in 9.73s.

The test code is like

// sum.ts
export default (a: number, b: number): number => a + b;

// sum.test.ts
import sum from './sum';

test('test sum', () => expect(sum(1, 2)).toBe(3));

But vscode tell me it cannot find the name 'test'.

Cannot find name 'test'. Do you need to install type definitions for a test runner? Try `npm i @types/jest` or `npm i @types/mocha`.ts(2582)

I have installed types for jest.

I doubt there may be something wrong in tsconfig. And I change the config based on Answer

But it still doesn't work.

Answer 1

I was unable to get this to work by modifying my tsconfig.json and jest.config.js, changing jest versions, and also referencing this post: cannot find name it in jest typescript

I was able to remove the error by importing the methods explicitly as so:

import { expect, test } from '@jest/globals';
