Jest-Native "SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module"

Trying to do some unit testing using https://github.com/callstack/react-native-testing-library + https://github.com/testing-library/jest-native, I have no problem testing plain javascript files, but I encounter the following error when testing on components :

 ● Test suite failed to run

    Jest encountered an unexpected token

    Details:

    C:\Users\admin\Documents\my_project\node_modules\@expo\vector-icons\FontAwesome5.js:1
    ({"Object.<anonymous>":function(module,exports,require,__dirname,__filename,global,jest){import FontAwesome5 from './build/FontAwesome5';
                                                                                             ^^^^^^

How can I fix this ? Thanks for you help !

A bit too late but if anyone has this issue. If you are using expo, just change

'preset': 'react-native'

to

 'preset': 'jest-expo'

You should add a transformIgnorePatterns to the jest config:

 "transformIgnorePatterns": [
        "node_modules/(?!(@react-native|react-native|react-native-vector-icons))"
      ]
