vscode debug config for wsl and jest

#wsl #vscode #jest #debugging

When using the config from jest documentation the execution doesn't stop at specified breakpoints but the following config works with wsl:

{
  "version": "0.2.0",
  "configurations": [
    {
      "type": "node",
      "request": "launch",
      "name": "Jest All",
      "program": "${workspaceFolder}/node_modules/jest/bin/jest",
      "args": ["--runInBand"],
      "useWSL": true
    },
  ]
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
