automocking: true is broken

Bug

What is the current behavior?

Running this in my tests:

import { enums } from './index';

describe('test', () => {
  it('should not blow up ', () => {
    expect(true).toEqual(true);
  });
});

Here is what my index.js looks like

//Lots of other imports
...
export const enums = {
  Foo: 'foo',
};
... 
// Lot's of other things

Here is what happens when I run jest:

 FAIL  src/modules/foo/index.spec.js
  ● Test suite failed to run

    TypeError: Cannot read property 'role' of undefined

      29 |               }
      30 |
    > 31 |               return `${foo}/${bar.splice(0, 1)[0]}`;
      32 |             }
      33 |
      34 |             return `${foo}/${bar}`;

      at Object.<anonymous> (src/utils/fooHelper.js:31:31)
      at Object.<anonymous> (src/modules/baz/index.js:58:20)
      at Object.<anonymous> (src/modules/bar/index.js:50:18)
      at Object.<anonymous> (src/modules/foo/index.js:66:13)
      at Object.<anonymous> (src/modules/foo/index.spec.js:3:14)

So given that I can't use automocking: false, I tried setting it to true which gives this error:

 FAIL  src/modules/foo/index.spec.js
  ● Test suite failed to run

    Failed to get mock metadata: /Users/emmettharper/Dev/foo/node_modules/core-js/library/modules/_global.js

    See: http://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/manual-mocks.html#content

      at Object.<anonymous> (node_modules/core-js/library/modules/_export.js:1:103)
      at Object.<anonymous> (node_modules/core-js/library/modules/_iter-define.js:3:15)

Setting:

    "unmockedModulePathPatterns": [
      "<rootDir>/node_modules/core-js"
    ]

Also just presents another error:

 FAIL  src/modules/bar/components/__tests__/bar.spec.js
  ● Test suite failed to run

    TypeError: Cannot set property 'DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL' of undefined

      at Object.<anonymous>.exports.create (node_modules/jest-jasmine2/build/jasmine/jasmine_light.js:40:31)

And setting unmocking jest-jasmine2 doesn't seem to fix it.

If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and either a repl.it demo through https://repl.it/languages/jest or a minimal repository on GitHub that we can yarn install and yarn test.

run node scripts/test.js --env=jsdom

What is the expected behavior?

Ideally I could just grab a simple enum from a file with out jest resolving everything (I have a massive app). But if that's too complicated then I would love for automock to work out of the box.

Please provide your exact Jest configuration

I understand that manually mocking each file is a workaround here: https://github.com/kriasoft/react-starter-kit/issues/491 and https://github.com/facebook/jest/issues/678

but I have a massive project and this is not a scalable solution.

[jcrben]

Could you create an actual project that someone can pull down and play with to reproduce the problem?

      at Object.<anonymous> (src/utils/fooHelper.js:31:31)
      at Object.<anonymous> (src/modules/baz/index.js:58:20)
      at Object.<anonymous> (src/modules/bar/index.js:50:18)
      at Object.<anonymous> (src/modules/foo/index.js:66:13)
      at Object.<anonymous> (src/modules/foo/index.spec.js:3:14)

Maybe I'm missing something, but can you disclose fooHelper, baz, and bar?

I got the similar error as well when I set automock: true in jest.config.json:

Failed to get mock metadata: /Users/deepak/example-app/node_modules/process-nextick-args/index.js

    See: http://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/manual-mocks.html#content

      at Object.<anonymous> (node_modules/readable-stream/readable.js:12:30)

I was trying to use this config to avoid calling jest.mock('../../my-module'); in every test file.

When I run jest with automock: true I get some issues as well:

1. Attempting to mock node-rdkafka fails with the error Cannot read property 'errorCodes' of undefined After some investigation, I see that this is the part of the code where it creates the object from the bindings it has with the underlying C library. It's a bit complex so I fixed it by just creating a manual mock.

However,

Now I get the following error:

received value must be a Promise.
    Received: undefined

When I'm running tests. My module returns a named async function which in fact does return a promise. It works fine without having automock turned on.

This is causing a lot of issues for my project. Appreciate if anyone can update here if they find a solution. Cheers! :)

I'm having the same problem. Here is another error that can occure:

    TypeError: Cannot read property 'default' of undefined

      at node_modules/react-native/Libraries/vendor/emitter/EventSubscription.js:15:21

      at Object.require (node_modules/react-native/Libraries/vendor/emitter/EmitterSubscription.js:13:27)

Maybe that helps to make this issue better queryable :)

Perhaps under "automock": true it becomes user's responsibility to unmock those modules that are being tested?

[luckylooke]

I am getting "TypeError: Cannot read property 'default' of undefined" from node_module which I expect to be automocked.

Having the same issue. Here is the error:

@cpojer @aaronabramov @SimenB can we shed some light on this issue, please? 😄 When using automock: true, Jest will throw errors on certain node modules. Manually mocking using jest.mock("name_of_node_module") works but requires us to write a bunch of jest.mocks which is not very scalable. Maybe there is a simple fix?

I would expect that automock:true calls jest#mock under the hood for all imported modules, so seems strange why one works over the other.

Here's a super simple example, as requested:

This works when config is { automock: false, testEnvironment: "node" }

const admin = require("firebase-admin");

jest.mock("firebase-admin");

test("hello", () => {
    expect(true).toBe(true);
});

This breaks when { automock:true, testEnvironment: "node" }

const admin = require("firebase-admin");

test("hello", () => {
    expect(true).toBe(true);
});

Error:

FAIL  ./testjest.spec.js
  ● Test suite failed to run

    TypeError: Cannot read property 'message' of undefined

Appreciate your time!

@govindrai Do you have a solution for this problem?

The note on the automock config says:

Node modules are automatically mocked when you have a manual mock in place (e.g.: mocks/lodash.js). More info here.

Which is also broken: https://github.com/facebook/jest/issues/12777

So, I think in general automocking has had a lot of regressions.

[edmundsj]

I am having this issue as well. It happens regardless of whether I set automock: true in jest.config.js, or run jest.enableAutomock() in my files.

Error message for all test suites:

  ● Test suite failed to run

    Failed to get mock metadata: /home/jordan/Documents/axle-mono/frontend/node_modules/lodash/_freeGlobal.js

    See: https://jestjs.io/docs/manual-mocks#content

      at Runtime._generateMock (node_modules/jest-runtime/build/index.js:1901:15)
      at Object.<anonymous> (node_modules/lodash/_root.js:1:100)

I should also not the documentation pointed to by the error message does not work out of the box. I am using TypeScript and jest version 27.5.1 packaged with CRA.

[ebrahimGH]

I got this error when i enable automock:

● Test suite failed to run

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'initTestEnvironment')
