Enzyme expects an adapter to be configured, but found none

Question

I have a problem calling enzym's mount function. It says:

Enzyme Internal Error: Enzyme expects an adapter to be configured, but found none. To
      configure an adapter, you should call `Enzyme.configure({ adapter: new Adapter() })`
      before using any of Enzyme's top level APIs, where `Adapter` is the adapter
      corresponding to the library currently being tested. For example:

      import Adapter from 'enzyme-adapter-react-15';

My setupTests.js file looks like this:

import { configure } from 'enzyme';
import Adapter from 'enzyme-adapter-react-16';

configure({ adapter: new Adapter() });

and in package.json:

"jest": {
    "testEnvironment": "jest-environment-jsdom-global",
    "setupFiles": [
        "<rootDir>/jestConfigs/setupTests.js"
    ],
    "moduleNameMapper": {
        "^.+\\.(css|scss)$": "<rootDir>/jestConfigs/CSSStub.js",
        "^.+\\.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|eot|otf|webp|svg|ttf|woff|woff2|mp4|webm|wav|mp3|m4a|aac|oga)$": "<rootDir>/jestConfigs/fileStub.js",
        "/common-mms/(.+)": "<rootDir>/App/common-mms/$1"
    }
},

But the problem is - I am using react-16 and enzyme-adapter-react-15 is irrelevant for me. Even if I add enzyme-adapter-react-15 just in case - the error still remains.

UPDATE: If I copy content of setupTests.js into beginning of each test file - all works fine! And if I put console.log(1) into setupTests - it actually prints! Meaning that the file is actually improted on jest initialization.

Yes, I have installed it. Now I will update the question - the problem is if I copy and paste my configs from config file into beginning of each test file - all works fine. — kurumkan, Jan 16 '18 at 11:57

You have to import setupTests.js in your file where you're writing your test cases. This is already answered in this link

You shouldn't be copying the adapter setup in all your tests. Indeed this has been answered before: Enzyme expects an adapter to be configured.

In short, the solution depends on whether you have used create-react-app to set up the project and have ejected the app or not.

For a non-ejected create-react-app project you only need to add the setupTests.js file you mention under src/. For Typescript users this should be src/setupTests.ts.

If you have ejected from create-react-app or have setup the project without it, you need to add to your jest config this line (wherever that is): "setupFilesAfterEnv": ["<rootDir>/src/setupTests.js"]
