Test suite failed to run error: Expected ';', '}' or <eof>

[Brysonmk1984]

I just tried switching to this package instead of ts-jest since it was so slow at handling errors. I get this error on any test I run... I'm assuming I didn't configure this properly. Any ideas? Do I need to set up a .swcrc file? if so, what goes in there?

Thanks for your work on this.

Do I need to set up a .swcrc file?

Yes - that or inline it like the README implicitly suggests: https://github.com/swc-project/jest#usage

module.exports = {
  transform: {
    '^.+\\.(t|j)sx?$': ['@swc/jest', { ...config, /* custom configuration in Jest */ }], //.swcrc contents go here in place of `config`
  },
}

I am also here because of the recent ts-jest issues kulshekhar/ts-jest#1967 (Granted it could be Jest it could be v8. Ultimately - I just wanted to move to SWC to get faster, more stable, and ultimately most performant tests I can run).

I am trying to use this package with a React Native app - and am running into issues after I resolve the one listed here. I resolved this issue you've outlined by adding an .swcrc. I have tried a couple of different .swcrc configurations:

• This one
• This one

And just a basic one from the example in the repo here:

jest/examples/react/package.json

Lines 33 to 51 in 4660359

	"@swc/jest",
	{
	"sourceMaps": true,
	"jsc": {
	"parser": {
	"syntax": "typescript",
	"tsx": true
	},
	"transform": {
	"react": {
	"runtime": "automatic"
	}
	}
	}
	}
	]
	},

The above works without a physical .swcrc file - which is what I'll opt for since our App wont be built using SWC yet (or maybe ever 🤷 Depends on the RN support in the future.)

The issue I'm running into now - is very similar:

I haven't had any luck getting past this point and would LOVE some help troubleshooting how to move forward.

EDIT: I'll make a separate issue so this question doesn't muddy up your question. Hope this answer helped though. #85
