Probably ! Unfortunately seems to be coming from a library so we will check with them to fix this.
Thanks for the help.
Cheers

We had the same issue, can confirm it came from rc-virtual-list which is an Ant Design Select dependency.
We resolved it by using rc-virtual-list 3.2.0

I got the same issue when using a page with the Ant Design Tree component

As explained on this link (link from above),

We don’t expect this to be a common problem because our eslint-plugin-react-hooks/exhaustive-deps lint rule (make sure you use it!) has always warned about this.

I do not see any eslint warning related to this.

I'm facing the same problem while testing a TreeSelect (antd) component with jest and React Testing Library. How did you solve this issue ? @nvbinh
