Using from JS "global not defined" no matter what I try and inspect

[thelazydogsback]

Using debug-visualizer V2.0.6.
Breakpoint in Jest unit test.
All see is "global is not defined" no matter what variable (or const expr) I type into the expression area.

thanks

Which nodejs version do you run jest in? global should be available since node v0.1.27.

Can you type "global\n" into the debug console?

[hediet]

This does not make sense. I will debug it tomorrow. What is the global object called then? window??

[thelazydogsback]

Not window either.
I don't know -- I've never used such a thing in Node -- only in browsers.

Looks like it should:

Definitely has to do with the environment when running from Jest -- if I write a simple helloWorld app.js and debug it normally, I don't get this issue.
