Resolving "ReferenceError: document is not defined" in WebStorm using Jest
This is an error that I've seen plague several projects when using the Jest Test runner in WebStorm. I have found two working resolutions to this. You can either.
- Add this block of code below the imports in the test file that is having the error.
import jsdom from 'jsdom'; const doc = jsdom.jsdom('<!doctype html>test'); global.document = doc; global.window = doc.defaultView; - Alternatively put "--env=jsdom" in the "Jest options" field in the specific runners configuration. Should look something like this.
Either way the error should now be gone when you run your tests.
