Strange SyntaxError when running tests, probably transpiler bug

Created by: MOZGIII

Is this a bug report?

Yes.

Can you also reproduce the problem with npm 4.x?

I'm using yarn. Tried npm 4 though. Same.

Which terms did you search for in User Guide?

Did a quick look-through. I searched google for SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier, did not found the solution.

Environment

1. node -v: v8.4.0
2. npm -v: 4.6.1 (was 5.x before)
3. yarn --version: 0.27.5
4. npm ls react-scripts: react-scripts@1.0.13 (also checked at react-scripts@1.0.11 with yarn)

Switching yarn/npm seems to have no effect.

Then, specify:

1. Operating system: Ubuntu xenial
2. Browser and version (if relevant): -

Steps to Reproduce

The issue is really strange.

1. Create a new project, cd into it.

2. yarn add flow-bin (flow-bin@0.53.1), then yarn flow init.

3. Create two files:

src/dummy.js

// @flow
export const dummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmy = async (
  response: Response
): Promise<Response> => {
  if (!response.ok) {
    const text = await response.text();
    throw Error(text);
  }
  return response;
};

src/dummy.test.js

// @flow
import { dummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmy } from "./dummy";

it("should run", async () => {
  await dummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmy(fetch("https://google.com"));
  expect(true);
});

4. yarn test

Expected Behavior

Tests run successfully or at least fail with some sane error.

Actual Behavior

 PASS  src/App.test.js
 FAIL  src/dummy.test.js
  ● Test suite failed to run

    .../issue/src/dummy.js:6
        const text = await response.text();
                           ^^^^^^^^

Seems to be related to the way code is formatted. 😮

Just cone it and yarn install. Run CI=true yarn test. Pretend you're CI to run all tests.
