TypeError: Cannot read property 'now' of undefined in 1.1.0

[chetmurphy]

I am using typescript with react-hooks-testing-library that uses this library. To get tests to run, I had to mock Date in my tests

declare global {
interface Window { Date: any; }
}
window.Date = Date;

And comment out the code in wait-for-expect starting at line 16:

var _ref = typeof window !== "undefined" ? window : global,
setTimeout = _ref.setTimeout,
now = _ref.Date.now;

Is this a bug?

Moving the discussion from #12
Repro at https://github.com/chetmurphy/wait-for-expect-test - you do some weird things there, the whole setup of enzyme is not needed when you use *-testing-library.
To sum up, I removed setupFiles and testEnvironment from your package.json and it worked.

I don't think this is a bug in the library, when you start mocking your globals, windows, etc, things might start breaking.

Also, your mocking of date in Block.test.tsx could not work - since the code is breaking on the import, before you even get to your "mock"

Confirmed and thanks.

Hi, for lost googlers that struggled like me, I needed to initialize JSDOM this way server side so window object is fully defined:

import jsdom from "jsdom-global";

const initComponentTest = () => {
	// init jsdom for SSR
	jsdom("", {
		runScripts: "outside-only"
	});

For the details this manual initialization of JSDOM is needed to test components with Enzyme server side in Vulcan (a Meteor + Mocha + React setup with SSR).

The runScripts option will load window.Date, window.Map and so on, that are not included in JSDOM as a default as stated in their doc.

As explained in #15 maybe it would nice to catch this error early on in wait-for-expect, because it's quite hard to debug and can easily happen with a bad setup/too much mocking.
