The module factory of `jest.mock()` is not allowed to reference any out-of-scope variables.

• I have reviewed the documentation
• I have searched existing issues
• I am using the latest React Native version

Environment

My Environment is as below.

Scanning folders for symlinks in /Users/sirjmkitavi/Andela/playground/react-native/ball-animation/node_modules (25ms)

Environment:
  OS: macOS High Sierra 10.13.2
  Node: 10.0.0
  Yarn: 1.6.0
  npm: 5.6.0
  Watchman: 4.9.0
  Xcode: Xcode 9.2 Build version 9C40b
  Android Studio: Not Found

Packages: (wanted => installed)
  react: ^16.3.2 => 16.3.2
  react-native: ^0.55.3 => 0.55.3

Steps to Reproduce

• Initialise react-native application. Preferably using react-native-clie

  i.e react-native init SampleProj

• Ensure you have atleast one test.

• Run yarn test

Expected Behavior

The expected behaviour is for the tests to run successfully. To either fail or pass.

Actual Behavior

All test suites fail throwing the error below

 /Users/{user}/pulse/pulse-mobile-app/node_modules/react-native/jest/setup.js:
babel-plugin-jest-hoist: The module factory of `jest.mock()` is not allowed to reference any out-of-scope variables.
    Invalid variable access: console
...

The error message continues to say

Downgrading my version of yarn didn't change anything.
However, downgrading my node version from 10 to 8 solved the error.

Not sure why, but you guys really need to take a look at this.

👍 /home/circleci/repo/node_modules/react-native/jest/setup.js: babel-plugin-jest-hoist: The module factory of jest.mock() is not allowed to reference any out-of-scope variables.. I cant build RN app on CircleCI.

That is related to Node.js version for sure. It started appearing right after upgrading from 9.x to 10.0 and fixed itself when downgraded to 9.x.

[DaveVanVliet]

@borisyankov Can confirm, all my tests fail on 10.0 but pass on 9.x

[xzilja]

Same case, upgrade from node 9.x to 10.x resulted in error below

Having similar issue here after upgrading to node version 10.X

[codeithuman]

Same issue with Node v10.1.0. Downgraded to Node v8.11.1 via homebrew and tests are passing again.

[gengjiawen]

Maybe it's a problem with jest, I tried to report it to jest when I have time.

[gengjiawen]

For anyone want to use with node 10, update jest in package.json

    "jest": "23.0.0-charlie.1"

[gengjiawen]

I have reported to jest in jestjs/jest#6196. If you want to fix this asap, please upvote that issue.
