Evaluate can't run in jest with react-native

[zfben]

It works in react native's app, but dosen't work in jest.

UPDATED: Demo Repo and Logs.

There are key files:

// case.test.tsx
import { evaluateSync } from '@mdx-js/mdx'
import * as runtime from 'react/jsx-runtime'

it('renders with crashing', () => {
  evaluateSync('1', runtime as any) // => TypeError: Cannot redefine property: arguments at Function.defineProperty (<anonymous>)
})

// babel.config.js
module.exports = {
  presets: ['module:@react-native/babel-preset']
}

// jest.config.js
module.exports = {
  preset: 'react-native',
  testRegex: '/*\\.test\\.tsx?$',
  transform: {
    '.m?(js|ts)x?$': 'babel-jest',
  },
  transformIgnorePatterns: [],
  moduleNameMapper: {
    '\\.(css|less|sass|jpg|jpeg|png|gif|eot|otf|webp|svg|ttf|woff|woff2|mp4|webm|wav|mp3|m4a|aac|oga)$':
      'react-native/jest/assetFileTransformer.js',
    'estree-walker': '<rootDir>/node_modules/estree-walker/src/index.js',
    periscopic: '<rootDir>/node_modules/periscopic/src/index.js',
    'is-reference': '<rootDir>/node_modules/is-reference/src/index.js',
  }
}

Thanks for helping.

Welcome @zfben! 👋
Sorry you ran into a spot of trouble.

Jest needs to be configured to support ESM. https://mdxjs.com/migrating/v2/#esm
The Jest ESM guide and the ESM guide by Sindre linked in the trouble shooting section explain this more on how to configure and known bugs in Jest.

Where possible I'd recommend migrating to node:test for a fast and light weight testing experience https://nodejs.org/api/test.html
or vitest for a Jest compatible test library https://vitest.dev/
Both node:test and vitest have strong ESM support.
