Error when testing with jest

See original GitHub issue

I’m using jest and enzyme to write tests for my project. When testing components with charts in them and calling component.unmount(), I’m getting this error:

TypeError: Cannot read property 'destroy' of undefined
  at ChartComponent.componentWillUnmount (node_modules/react-chartjs-2/lib/index.js:127:26)
  at node_modules/react-dom/lib/ReactCompositeComponent.js:409:25
  ...pointlessly looking enormous trace

Full stack trace here: http://pastebin.com/yHNX5QnV

Does anybody else have any similar problem, do I have to do something more specific when testing components with charts in them and do you have any idea how I might be able to fix this?

I am getting the same error when using react-chartjs-2 in a react webapp. Is there a solution to this issue?
