Tests fail

oer@www:~/oerworldmap-ui> node --version v8.11.4

oer@www:~/oerworldmap-ui> ../node/bin/npm test Test Suites: 9 failed, 9 total

The logs looks like this:

FAIL test/Block.js ● Test suite failed to run

Jest encountered an unexpected token

This usually means that you are trying to import a file which Jest cannot parse, e.g. it's not plain JavaScript.

By default, if Jest sees a Babel config, it will use that to transform your files, ignoring "node_modules".

Here's what you can do:
 • To have some of your "node_modules" files transformed, you can specify a custom "transformIgnorePatterns" in your config.
 • If you need a custom transformation specify a "transform" option in your config.
 • If you simply want to mock your non-JS modules (e.g. binary assets) you can stub them out with the "moduleNameMapper" config option.

You'll find more details and examples of these config options in the docs:
https://jestjs.io/docs/en/configuration.html

These tests fail on production and on beta. Are they important resp. what have I/we to do to make them run - or should these just be ignored?

Ah, I see: they do run successfully at travis - and this is all that is needed. I can imagine that it is failing because of the README saying that node 8 is fine, which I hence use, and travis uses node 12. I shall test this when I am back at work, maybe next week.

I can imagine that it is failing because of the README saying that node 8 is fine, which I hence use, and travis uses node 12.

Rights, this is a bug in the README, package.json also requires node >=12.16.0. If I recall correctly, there is a node v12 somewhere in the home. You can check out the service scripts where that version should be used.

Also in the startup.sh there is no version of 'node' explicitly set. Fixed this in #645.

Fixed with #645, tests run, closing.
