TypeError with create-react-app, react-app-rewire-ts-jest and ts-jest 23.1.3

[abenhamdine]

Issue :

With last version 23.1.3, I run into the following error on every test:

 TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "path" argument must be of type string. Received type undefined
      
      at assertPath (path.js:39:11)
      at Object.relative (path.js:1172:5)
      at Object.getCacheKey (node_modules/ts-jest/dist/utils/get-cache-key.js:15:16)

If I reinstall version 23.0.1, errors go away and the tests are passing normally.

I tried to install jest-cli last version 23.5.0 but I ran into another issue :

TypeError: environment.teardown is not a function
  at node_modules/jest-runner/build/run_test.js:188:25

which is probably the same error described in jestjs/jest#6269
since I also use create-react-app

Environment

I use creat-react-app without ejecting (thanks to react-app-rewired).

Packages versions:

"ts-jest" : "23.1.3",
"jest-cli": "20.0.4",
"react-app-rewire-ts-jest": "1.0.17",
"react-scripts": "1.1.4",

No jest or babel configuration except those included in react-scripts (create-react-app)

tsconfig :

{
	"compilerOptions": {
		"allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true,
		"baseUrl": ".",
		"paths": {
			"*": [
				"src/*"
			]
		},
		"outDir": "build/dist",
		"module": "esnext",
		"target": "es5",
		"lib": [
			"es6",
			"dom"

	]
}

Expected behavior :

No errors.

Hi @abenhamdine, thanks for reporting.
Can you provide a minimal repo to reproduce the issue?

[abenhamdine]

I will try, but I lack time to do it these days.

[huafu]

Well, at least provide the package dependencies with versions, as well as babelrc (if used), jest config and tsconfig.
ELse we cannot investigate much the issue.

Also to note even tho you might know it: try to get on latest jest, ts-jest and typescript. Remove node_modules and re-run npm install (or yarn), run jest --clearCache, ...

[abenhamdine]

I edited my first post to add packages versions and details about environment.
I'm sorry, I don't have enough time to add a minimal repro right now (I'm still on my vacation trip) but I will devote some time add it late august.

Thanks, with what you write down I can already (quickly) tell you:

• Your jest-cli is very old, I believe latest version is 23.x.
• in compiler options, try to remove allowSyntheticDefaultImports and replace it with esModuleInterop set to true
• ensure you have TypeScript >= 2.7 in deps

UPDATE: the path error is FOR SURE about old jest version, so I am closing this right now.
We are following jest major version with our versions, so if you want to use ts-jest version X.?.?, you'll need to have jest X.?.?

If you think I am wrong somewhere, feel free to re-open of course.

Ok, thx for your time and the useful feedbacks !
