[Jest 28][Yup Resolver] SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module

I'm receiving a Syntax Error when running my tests with Jest v28. It was working with v27.x

I'm using React 17 and Next 12 with TypeScript.

This issue probably should belong to Jest as we didn't make any change to the module.

[GustavoSchuler]

I truly understand that. But it will be nice if you can give any help 🙏

[jorisre]

Can you provide a repo or a codesandbox please?

[GustavoSchuler]

@jorisre I've created this repo with minimal project to reproduce the error.

I got this error too for Zod resolver after updating to Jest 28.

 FAIL   Client tests  views/Home/Home.test.tsx
  ● Test suite failed to run

    Jest encountered an unexpected token

    Jest failed to parse a file. This happens e.g. when your code or its dependencies use non-standard JavaScript syntax, or when Jest is not configured to support such syntax.

    Out of the box Jest supports Babel, which will be used to transform your files into valid JS based on your Babel configuration.

    By default "node_modules" folder is ignored by transformers.

    Here's what you can do:
     • If you are trying to use ECMAScript Modules, see https://jestjs.io/docs/ecmascript-modules for how to enable it.
     • If you are trying to use TypeScript, see https://jestjs.io/docs/getting-started#using-typescript
     • To have some of your "node_modules" files transformed, you can specify a custom "transformIgnorePatterns" in your config.
     • If you need a custom transformation specify a "transform" option in your config.
     • If you simply want to mock your non-JS modules (e.g. binary assets) you can stub them out with the "moduleNameMapper" config option.

    You'll find more details and examples of these config options in the docs:
    https://jestjs.io/docs/configuration
    For information about custom transformations, see:
    https://jestjs.io/docs/code-transformation

Hey guys, I found a workaround for now as described in this comment.

First I create a new file called resolver.js under my .jest folder:

module.exports = (path, options) => {
    // Call the defaultResolver, so we leverage its cache, error handling, etc.
    return options.defaultResolver(path, {
        ...options,
        // Use packageFilter to process parsed `package.json` before
        // the resolution (see https://www.npmjs.com/package/resolve#resolveid-opts-cb)
        packageFilter: pkg => {
            // jest-environment-jsdom 28+ tries to use browser exports instead of default exports,
            // but @hookform/resolvers only offers an ESM browser export and not a CommonJS one. Jest does not yet
            // support ESM modules natively, so this causes a Jest error related to trying to parse
            // "export" syntax.
            //
            // This workaround prevents Jest from considering @hookform/resolvers module-based exports at all;
            // it falls back to CommonJS+node "main" property.
            if (pkg.name === '@hookform/resolvers') {
                delete pkg['exports'];
                delete pkg['module'];
            }
            return pkg;
        },
    });
};

Then in my jest.config.js, I've added as a resolver:

resolver: '<rootDir>/.jest/resolver.js',

Hope it helps you guys.

[GustavoSchuler]

@georgekaran thank you so much! It worked for me!

[nico1510]

It's also possible to manually import from the correct dist file e.g.
import { yupResolver } from '@hookform/resolvers/yup/dist/yup.js';

[GustavoSchuler]

@nico1510 I've tried that, but didn't worked.

[nemanjam]

It's also possible to manually import from the correct dist file e.g. import { yupResolver } from '@hookform/resolvers/yup/dist/yup.js';

I usually get circular dependencies when I do that.

[EmilioHerreraSoukup]

Is there an update on this?

[cdomigan]

Adding the offending modules (in my case "vest" and "@hookform/resolvers") to transformIgnorePatterns in jest.config.js solved this for me.

Eg. transformIgnorePatterns: ["/node_modules/(?!(vest|@hookform/resolvers))"],
