Incompatible with Jest 26+

See original GitHub issue

When running with Jest 26.6.0 (with Create-React-App v4), all of my tests now fail with the error ‘Hooks cannot be defined inside tests. Hook of type “beforeEach” is nested within “Test Name”’. This was mentioned as one of the issues in this previous issue , of which the fix was to upgrade to v1.4.2 of jest-react-hooks-shallow. This, however, has not fixed it. Is there some other configuration that is required to make it work with Jest 26.6.0?

Stacktrace:

Error: Hooks cannot be defined inside tests. Hook of type "beforeEach" is nested within "toggles tigonMode and saves it in sessionStore".

Hello @mikeborozdin, I was wondering if there’s been any progress on this issue as it is blocking me from upgrading react-scripts to the newest version.
