[vue3-jest] - createVNode/createElementVNode is not a function

[seba4]

In my project i have just upgraded to Vue 3 and app is running normally but when i try to run tests i get error:

Component Test.vue) Example1:

<template>
    <div>
    </div>
</template>

Component Test.vue Example2:

<template>
    <div>
        <div>test</div>
    </div>
</template>

I am shallowMounting/mount OverviewOption.vue which has imported Test.vue.

1. If Test.vue is imported from same folder as OverviewOption.vue both examples are working and tests PASS
2. If Test.vue is imported from SubModule Example1 does not throw error Example2 throws an error ERROR1: (3.1.0 Vue): createVNode is not a function ERROR2 (3.2.19 Vue): _vue.createElementVNode) is not a function

Only difference in OverviewOption.vue: import Test from 'design-system/components/Test/Test.vue' import Test from './Test.vue'

Any idea where the problem is or what should i check?

Sounds to me like the "submodule" also has a node_modules folder, in which a wrong Version of Vue is installed (Vue 2 still?), or something like that.

I did a bit more testing. And yea i have checked about this node_modules but no this is not there. Otherwise app is working if i open it in browser but not in Jest tests.

One finding that i noticed:

Project structure: /root

• client/VueApp1
• client/VueApp2
• client/VueApp3

• client/Test.vue

  If this Test.vue is loaded from within same client/VueApp1 folder structure then it works. If i load it from some other folder then i get an error. Import example: Import Test from '/root/client/Test.vue'

I found out that the problem was in node_modules like you said, but it was not in same location but 2 levels up. This folder included different Vue version and because of that i had problems.
