Using from JS "global not defined" no matter what I try and inspect

Open thelazydogsback opened this issue 5 years ago • 8 comments

Using debug-visualizer V2.0.6. Breakpoint in Jest unit test. All see is "global is not defined" no matter what variable (or const expr) I type into the expression area.

thanks

Which nodejs version do you run jest in? global should be available since node v0.1.27.

Can you type "global\n" into the debug console?

This does not make sense. I will debug it tomorrow. What is the global object called then? window??

Not window either. I don't know -- I've never used such a thing in Node -- only in browsers.

Looks like it should: https://nodejs.org/api/globals.html#globals_global

Definitely has to do with the environment when running from Jest -- if I write a simple helloWorld app.js and debug it normally, I don't get this issue.
