ReferenceError: window is not defined when executing initStoryshots()

[flanamacca]

When using jest to init initStoryshots (as per the guide), I am stumped with the following error. Sadly all of the code references that used to exist for storyshots seem to go to 404 pages.

` FAIL .\Storyshots.test.js
● Test suite failed to run

ReferenceError: window is not defined

@flanamacca which code references are you referring to? The storyshots repo has moved here:

https://github.com/storybooks/storybook/tree/master/packages/storyshots

We are in the process of transitioning to a mono-repo to simplify version management and testing.

Hey @shilman This part on that pge.

import initStoryshots from 'storyshots';
initStoryshots(); <!-- when this runs with nothing but the default configuration i was getting this error. Now i had to setup a lot of just settings to get working.

When i do the basic installation with create-react-app and run it, it doesn't work either (since it's not configured to run through any preprocessor).

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

evalmachine.<anonymous>:1
(function (exports, require, module, __filename, __dirname) { import { configure } from '@kadira/storybook';
                                                              ^^^^^^
SyntaxError: Unexpected token import

Found the solution is that unlike in some other jest setups, you need to define your windows as global objects in the config file.

Sorry for coming back to a closed issue, but I'm also experiencing this. @flanamacca , do you happen to have a code sample that shows your solution?

This error started happening for me all of a sudden out of nowhere :|

` ReferenceError: error is not defined

I'm getting the same error. Anyone with a solution?
