Cannot repro. Run yarn test or npm run test and see it works. If you have global jest installed, please remove it, it's supposed to be installed locally per-project.

[SimenB]

I cannot reproduce this

[basarbk]

I don't have jest globally installed. It's just installed locally for this project. But it's interesting that it's only occuring in my machine. will look into it to figure out if I'm missing something.

[thymikee]

Maybe you have an alias set up?

[basarbk]

No i don't have any alias matching to jest. The thing is if i replace 26.0.1 with 25.5.4, npm install --save-dev [email protected] and then run npm test again, it's working. So that's why I suspected something changed between these versions.

[SimenB]

I don't have access to a windows machine, so I can't test there. We do run many tests on CI with Windows though, so I don't think it's as simple as that

[basarbk]

I tested this on another windows machine and it's working there. So the problem must be about my environment. If I find the reason, I'll post it here. Thank you for your time.

I am experiencing same issue. I have created empty folder (no js files and other stuff) to verify that's not because of another something

[selimrecep]

Well I had to make a little change at built js files:
From:

To:

I couldn't find where are the args. coming from but I think they are from yarn(I didn't even install yarn so I don't know). But hey! At least it works very well :D

[basarbk]

I had confirmed the problem was about my environment. But couldn't find the reason of it. Now my windows is reinstalled and I no longer see this issue. Previously I had jest globally installed then removed. Maybe that was causing the problem. Or maybe it was something about the caching of npm.

I've experienced same.
Problems is with host locale and camelcase dependency.
validateCLIOptions method in jest-validate\build\validateCLIOptions.js calls camelcase for each argv and tries to match them with allowed options. (see [this] line)(https://github.com/facebook/jest/blob/63ebaa6e3848ddf228b1acc6f870c7eaca34e46c/packages/jest-validate/src/validateCLIOptions.ts#L81)
When it calls camelcase for arg run-in-band, camelcase returns runİnBand (capital 'i' in Turkish) if host has 'tr-TR' locale. And runİnBand is not one of allowed options (although runInBand is).

Workaround for Win10: Settings > Region & Language > Adminstrative language settings > Formats.
Set Format to English (United States). That changes locale of node to en-US.

I guess proper solution would be camelcase providing locale option and jest-validate just provides en-US as locale.

[vozzen]

Just created an issue in camelcase project as well.

[cemdrman]

I changed my language and it worked for me. sad but true.

[cbilgili]

Adding the locale environment to test script works. You can update your test command in package.json

"scripts": {
    "test": "LANG='en_US.UTF-8' jest"
  }

[vahdet]

In package.json, adding --runInBand option is also a legit workaround for the time being. Adding that, the options won't be added behind the scene, and there will be no Turkish char problem:

/*package.json*/
"scripts": {
  "test": "jest --runInBand"
}

But expect a longer time to complete as it runs tests one by one

[SimenB]

seems like we should pass locale to camelcase - anyone up for sending a PR?

[vozzen]

Let me do it. It is really first issue, give me some time :)

[SimenB]

Go for it @rasgele! 🙂

[caglartufan]

Thanks @rasgele you have solved my problem as well just by changing some region settings. İyi günler! :)
