To complete Zachary's answer, here is a workaround for the "extend in overrides" limitation of eslint config :

overrides: [
  Object.assign(
    {
      files: [ '**/*.test.js' ],
      env: { jest: true },
      plugins: [ 'jest' ],
    },
    require('eslint-plugin-jest').configs.recommended
  )
]

Pattern based configs are scheduled for 2.0.0 release of ESLint. For now, however, you will have to create two separate tasks (as mentioned in the comments). One for tests and one for the rest of the code and run both of them, while providing different .eslintrc files.

P.S. There's a jest environment coming in the next release of ESLint, it will register all of the necessary globals.

I solved the problem REF

Run

# For Yarn
yarn add eslint-plugin-jest -D

# For NPM
npm i eslint-plugin-jest -D

And then add in your .eslintrc file

{
    "extends": ["airbnb","plugin:jest/recommended"],
}
