What am I missing?

Hello all,

I was trying to get Jest to work with my Node js application when I found out it could not find my aliases defined suing the package called "module-alias". Searching about this I found that aliases that are declared with babel-plugin-module-resolver would be found by Jest.

I do not know much about Babel, but I have installed babel-plugin-module-resolver, babel/core, babel/cli, babel/preset-env. Also, I have modified my package.json so now before running my node app, I run "babel src -d dist". Last but not least I have a babel.config.js with the following content:

module.exports = {
    presets: [
      [
        '@babel/preset-env',
        {
          targets: {
            node: 'current',
          },
        },
      ],
    ],
    plugins : [
        [
          "babel-plugin-module-resolver",
          {
            root : ["./core/"],
            alias: {
              "@auth": "auth",
              "@errorManager": "./core/errorManager",
            }
          }]
    ]
  };    

Right now I am not even running Jest, but it does not find the aliases at all. What I am missing?

Thank you in advance and regards.
