[ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND]: Cannot find package '${workspaceFolder}' imported from /home/user/Documents ......

[hyperactivepuss]

I went through some issues here and it seems vscode variables should work fine but, nevertheless, I get this error
also using 'tsconfig-paths' and 'ts-node/esm'
package.json => "type": "module"

 {
      "extensions": [
        "ts"
      ],
      "filePatterns": [
        "**/*.test.ts"
      ],
      "parameters": [
        "--import",
        "${workspaceFolder}/utils/test-runner/register.js",
        "--experimental-specifier-resolution=node"
      ]
    }

If replace ${workspaceFolder} with ../../../../ everything works fine
also mentioned it here #33 (comment)

so it's definitely about modules
with this config it works

 {
      "extensions": [
        "ts"
      ],
      "filePatterns": [
        "**/*.test.ts"
      ],
      "parameters": [
        "--import",
        "tsx"
      ]
    }

but out put looks not "pretty"

and with tsx its obviously doesn't resolve stuff like this

   before(async () => {
    testPictureBase64 = await fs.readFile(`${import.meta.dirname}/signal.jpg`, { encoding: 'base64' })
  })

so need to do this hack only to have the ability to run a single test with the extension

`${import.meta.dirname ?? __dirname}/signal.jpg`

This is because you have "nodejs-testing.verbose": true on in your settings.
