Description

Issue #1766 happened because Jest released a new version that was not compatible with another dependency of ours. We want to make our templates more robust against such upstream changes which can happen unexpectedly.

We can do so by e.g. narrowing the version constraints of the dependencies that we install here:

terraform-cdk/packages/cdktf-cli/templates/typescript/.hooks.sscaff.js

Line 15 in b776e64

installDeps(['@types/node', 'typescript', 'jest', '@types/jest', "ts-jest", "ts-node"], true);
