expect(...).toBeVisible is not a function

[noomorph]

Description

After upgrading to jest@26.5.x and jest-circus@26.5.x, all Detox tests began failing with:

TypeError: expect(...).toBeVisible is not a function

Expected behavior

Detox should initialize its global variables correctly, i.e.: Jest's expect should not shadow the Detox's expect.

Actual behavior

CustomDetoxEnvironment sets Detox globals and matchers including this.global.expect, but then, a few moments later the Detox's expect gets overwritten with Jest's one.

Screenshots

See: jestjs/jest#10484

Temporary solution

Lock your jest and jest-circus dependencies to 26.4.x, like demonstrated here:

Can we catch this and throw an error?

[noomorph]

Catch what and which error do you want to throw, could you elaborate pls? I'll check in the morning

If jest is above the version we support.
