When sfdx-lwc-jest is installed globally, tests run with mocked Apex Method are failing

[RemyVULTAGGIO]

Description

When sfdx-lwc-jest is installed globally, tests run with mocked Apex Method are failing

Steps to Reproduce

From the root of a SFDX Project with LWC tests using mocked Apex Method

example of mocking code in one of the lwc/tests/*.test.js files : // Mock myMethod Apex wire adapter jest.mock( '@salesforce/apex/myController.myMethod', () => { const { createApexTestWireAdapter } = require( '@salesforce/sfdx-lwc-jest' ); return { default: createApexTestWireAdapter( jest.fn() ) }; }, { virtual: true } );

If sfdx-lwc-jest is installed globally

example of installation command-line : npm install @salesforce/sfdx-lwc-jest --location=global --omit=dev

When running the command-line "sfdx-lwc-jest", tests with mocked Apex Method are failing.

Version

node --version v16.17.0

sfdx version sfdx-cli/7.173.0 win32-x64 node-v16.17.1

sfdx-lwc-jest --version 1.1.3

@renatoliveira already mentioned this "global install issue" in #76

I did several tests. When sfdx-lwc-jest is installed locally (e.g. : npm install @salesforce/sfdx-lwc-jest --local --omit=dev) everything works fine.

Very important : I don't want to install sfdx-lwc-jest on each sfdx project. Or, at least, I want to install locally as few modules as possible if none is not an option.

Thanks in advance for your time & help.
