[Feature Request] Add way of running a script as a "before run" that runs before Jest executes

[kevjames3]

This issue was discovered while digging into this: nodejs/node#20432

Effectively, I am trying to debug one test, but I need NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS to be set before Jest executes. This variable cannot be set at runtime.

Currently, the workaround is to go to my Node Debug console in VSCode and set the variable there. Then I can debug each individual test. I notice that when I click "Debug", what is outputted a command line is generated. I simply want to prepend a "before run" hook to where I can set an ENV before Jest executes.

in settings with

"jestrunner.debugOptions": {}

you can add stuff to the debug console...

https://github.com/firsttris/vscode-jest-runner/blob/master/src/jestRunner.ts#L109

would it be possible to add a varialbe to the debug console using this feature?

So I tried this

"jestrunner.debugOptions": {
       "argv": [" export NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS=resources/security/certificate.pem "]
    }

And what outputted was

Warning: Ignoring extra certs from `resources/security/certificate.pemcd`, load failed: error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or directory

For some reason, it is appending "cd". Am I doing this right? I double checked that the file exists

refering to

i think i should be simple as this

"jestrunner.debugOptions": {
       "env":{
            "NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS": "resources/security/certificate.pem"
         }
    }
