I've created test for my connected component. In one file I import 'Localization' module which is located outside project root folder. It is not compiled to ES5 and Jest reports a SyntaxError: Unexpected token export. How to force Jest to transform that file?

           1 | import axios from 'axios';
           2 | import * as types from './actionTypes';
 error   > 3 | import Localization from '../../../../React/MainMethods/localization';

I have .babelrc with env preset.

{
    "presets": ["env", "react"]
}

package.json

Jest will automatically transform your files to ES6 if you have a babel.config file in your project. If you wanted greater control, you could add a Jest key to your package.json file...

"jest": {
    "transform": {}
  }

Also, take a look at the Babel-Jest project which will compile ES6 modules during testing.
