Error using Jest in Expo - SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module (Firebase imports)

Question

I am using Firebase in my Expo app, and when running a Jest test I encounter the error:

The error seems to only apply to my Firebase imports. I have attempted the solution here to add "type": "module" to my package.json file, which only gives me a new error:

You appear to be using a native ECMAScript module configuration file, which is only supported when running Babel asynchronously.

I then tried the solution for that error (giving my babel.config.js file a .cjs extension instead) which then gave me the same error I originally had again.

Additionally, I tried the solution here to require my imports instead, which also did not work. It seems to be difficult to find a solution for this issue that works for an Expo project. Any help would be appreciated.

My babel.config.js:

module.exports = function(api) {
  api.cache(true);
  return {
    presets: ['babel-preset-expo'],
  };
};

My package.json:

  "main": "node_modules/expo/AppEntry.js",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "expo start",

My Test File:

import React from 'react';
import renderer from 'react-test-renderer';

import App from '../App';

describe('<App />', () => {
  it('has 1 child', () => {
    const tree = renderer.create(<App />).toJSON();
    expect(tree.children.length).toBe(1);
  });
});
