Summary

fix: resolve #463 — Tests fail without any message if there are type errors

Problem

Severity: Medium | File: utils/testUtils.js

The issue is that when testing TypeScript transforms with type errors, the tests fail silently without any error message. The runTest function imports the transform module using require(), but if there are TypeScript compilation errors (type errors), the require fails without providing any useful error message to the user. This makes debugging TypeScript issues very difficult.

Solution

Modify the runTest function in utils/testUtils.js to wrap the require(path.join(dirName, '..', transformName)) call in a try-catch block. When an error is caught, log the error message with console.log('Error importing module', e) before allowing the test to proceed. This will ensure that even if the module has TypeScript type errors, the error will be visible to the user instead of the test just failing silently.

Changes

• utils/testUtils.js (modified)

Testing

• Existing tests pass
• Manual review completed
• No new warnings/errors introduced

How does this fix the issue? The runTest function isn't called from anywhere.
