How can I import Jest?

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
},

After I realized Jest is running in Node.js, it realized I could do this:

let { describe, it } = global;

It is not perfect, but one step closer... now I don't need to configure my linter with global variables any more.


Try the code below:

import {describe, expect, it } from '@jest/globals'

if you prefer explicit imports, you can do import {describe, expect, test} from '@jest/globals'.
