Sorry, that codesandbox link takes me to a 404 page. A lot of people are using this library and it's working fine, so I'm guessing your issues are something specific to your project. If you're still having trouble please start a thread on http://spectrum.chat/testing-library/help-react

Ran into a similar issue on a project, solved with a force reinstall yarn install --force

[miguelangeltorresfp]

I solved this issue with this option in the tsconfig.json file:
"moduleResolution": "node",

I have the same problem, none of these answers works for me, any help please?

[MatanBobi]

@hsnmrd can you please share a cloneable repo of that so we'll be able to investigate how we can help?

Solution: npm install --save-dev @testing-library/react

Upgrading to "@types/react": "^16.8.18" with npm i @types/react@latest fixed it.

[yaserkya]

change from "moduleResolution": "node", to "moduleResolution": "NodeNext",
Wich available in tsconfig.json

Sometimes after running npm install VSCode for some reason doesn't pick the changes! So in my case it was the "old" reastart trick that did it.. I just restarted VSCode and it disappeared 😉

@soiswis the good old restart worked for me. Thanks.

[jiangxiaoqiang]

restart work for me.

Check if the name of your file is with .tsx extension or you have missed the x

Tried all of the above. None of it works. I manually copied in @type\jest and @testing-library\react from another working project and it then compiled. However, as soon as I did an npm install the folders disappaeared. Clearly npm is deciding for whatever reason that these are not needed, and it is deleting them.
