I try to setup jest for my project following this tutorial : https://dev.to/nedsoft/testing-nodejs-express-api-with-jest-and-supertest-1km6
But when I try to run a basic test I’ve got the error below :
FAIL tests/sample.test.js ● Test suite failed to run ReferenceError: describe is not defined > 1 | describe('Sample Test', () => { | ^ 2 | it('should test that true === true', () => { 3 | expect(true).toBe(true) 4 | }) at Object.<anonymous> (tests/sample.test.js:1:1) Test Suites: 1 failed, 1 total Tests: 0 total Snapshots: 0 total Time: 1.521 s Ran all test suites. (node:15452) ExperimentalWarning: The fs.promises API is experimental npm ERR! Test failed. See above for more details.
I try to remove in my package.json :
testEnvironment: 'node',
But nothing change.
A idea ?

Ok the problem is last version of jest has conflict with node 10.13.0
Source : https://github.com/facebook/jest/issues/9538
So make this and it is ok :
npm install --save-dev jest@25.2.2 supertest
