Upon trying to setting up a test with vitest, an error is being raised with test():

• TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'test')

When the explicit import is declared as import {test} from "vitest" in the test file while globals: true is added to the configuration the error is raised.

When the explicit import import {test} from "vitest" is commented out and globals: true is added to the configuration the error is not raised.

When globals: true is removed from the configuration, just the explicit import import {test} from "vitest" raises the same error.

How can this error be resolved so just the explicit import statement of import {test} from "vitest" can be declared without the globals key added to the config object?

file.test.js

import { test } from "vitest";

test ("Test", () => {});

vite.config.js

/// <reference types="vitest" />
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react'

// https://vitejs.dev/config/
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [react()],
  test: {
    globals: true,
    coverage: {
      provider: "v8",
      reporter: ["json", "html", "text"]
    },
    environment: "happy-dom"
  }
})
