Set environment variables before running tests.

[Nxtra]

How can I specify an environment variable that should be available during the execution of my tests?

Eg. I want to set the AWS_DEFAULT_PROFILE environment variable to run my test.

take a look here:
#123

this will only work for debug

generally it should also be possible to define an alternative jest command

"scripts": {
  "test": "NODE_ENV=test jest"
},

than in your vscode config

"jestrunner.jestCommand": "npm run test --"

Nice, that works for running. I found the debug config via the linked issue.

For others coming here, to set env vars for run and debug:

Setup
.vscode/settings.json:

{
  "jestrunner.jestCommand": "npm run test --",
  "jestrunner.debugOptions": {
    "env": {
      "AWS_PROFILE": "your-profile"
    }
  }
}

package.json

scripts : {
  "test": "AWS_PROFILE=your-profile jest",
}
