tsconfig.editor.json breaks tests development (Cannot find name 'describe')

[Lonli-Lokli]

Current Behavior

Create angular app with latst (14.1) Nx
Open app.component.spec.ts

TS2593: Cannot find name 'describe'. Do you need to install type definitions for a test runner? Try npm i --save-dev @types/jest or npm i --save-dev @types/mocha and then add 'jest' or 'mocha' to the types field in your tsconfig.

Expected Behavior

No error in webstorm or vscode

Steps to Reproduce

npx create-nx-workspace@latest with angular preset

Failure Logs

The reason for this error in tests is new tsconfig.editor.json which do not respect jest types

{
  "extends": "./tsconfig.json",
  "include": ["**/*.ts"],
  "compilerOptions": {
    "types": []
  }
}

@Lonli-Lokli thanks for reporting this!

A fix was merged and should be released soon so new apps/workspaces won't have the issue. Please make sure to amend your existing tsconfig.editor.json with the types you need.

For already generated tsconfig.editor.json files, this might help:
In "compilerOptions", set "types": ["jest", "node"]

Hey guys, a question regarding this topic...

What is tsconfig.editor.json for?

Thanks in advance :)

@cnpallares I found a description here: #3810
Thanks to that

New files and files that aren't referenced by source files have a tsconfig.editor.json for the type checker in the IDE.

@kwiniarski97 thank you!

I will take a look.
