Update your Node version to latest Node 16.x at least

[znagadeon]

But the document says it requires node >= v14 to use vitest v0.24.4. I think one of them should be fixed.

By the way, I circumvented this issue by downgrading vitest to 0.24.3 :)

[sheremet-va]

Yes, Vitest should support it. I just told how to fix it in the meantime 😄

I have the exact same problem with Node.js 14.16.0.
