Jest vscode-jest Extension Running All Tests (Despite Proper Configuration and Using Git)

Question

As the title says, I'm using Git as source control for my project, and I'm using the below configuration:

  "jest.autoRun": "watch",
  "jest.debugCodeLens.showWhenTestStateIn": ["pass", "skip", "fail", "unknown"],
  "jest.coverageFormatter": "DefaultFormatter",
  "jest.coverageColors": {
    "covered": "rgba(9, 156, 65, 0.9)",
    "uncovered": "rgba(121, 31, 10, 0.3)",
    "partially-covered": "rgba(235, 198, 52, 0.1)"

but no matter what, any change in any file triggers all tests to run, not just the affected tests. I've also tried "jest.autoRun": "on-save" and it also triggers all tests to run, not just the ones for the saved file, whether I've got code-coverage enabled or disabled.

Try to specify/play the single parameters. This should be the configuration you are searching for. But it is the equivalent of "on-save", so it might not work.

"jest.autoRun": {
   "watch": false,
   "onSave": "test-src-file",
}
