With Jest 27 I didn’t have the problem, when I switched to Jest 28 I had the same error.

I had problems importing in the files where I had this error.

I don’t know why it was not a problem with the build and with version 27.

Now it works

I had exact same error message on CI tests. It affected all my test cases. This message hides real problem. You have to change maxWorkers to 1 to see what is the problem on single thread. Then you will see cause of error which helps you to resolve issue.
