Global jest variables not injected when using `jestCLI` in Atom.

See original GitHub issue

Do you want to request a feature or report a bug?

Bug, maybe?

What is the current behavior?

Attempting to use Jest as a runner for testing Atom package.

I’m able to get Atom to run Jest, which begins to run the test files, but none of the global Jest variables get injected into the test files.

ReferenceError: test is not defined

Here is the code being used to call jestCLI()

https://github.com/AtomLinter/linter-eslint/blob/7dbda8673e57f34c29515ea3b4b6358e7e071ecf/runner-jest.js

If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and either a repl.it demo through https://repl.it/languages/jest or a minimal repository on GitHub that we can yarn install and yarn test.

Not sure if it is a bug because there is no documentation for the jest-cli api. I’ll look into moving this into a separate minimal repo soon if required.

What is the expected behavior?

Jest will inject globals into the test script and run them.

Please provide your exact Jest configuration and mention your Jest, node, yarn/npm version and operating system.

Windows 10.0.17025 Build 17025 npm 5.5.1 node 8.9.1 Jest 22.1.1 No Jest configuration except the variables being passed into jestCLI()

Oh, haha. I see why you wanted a more descriptive title. I swear I typed a real title the first time. I remember it word for word. 🙈
