ReferenceError: TextDecoder is not defined While using blob storage in test cases

[sarabs3]

I am using blob storage for the first time and after implementing it in the code, while running the tests I am getting this error.
ReferenceError: TextDecoder is not defined

This is my code

import { upload } from '@vercel/blob/client';

export const uploadMediaFile = async (file: File, userName: string) => {
  try {
    const newBlob = await upload(`${userName}/${file.name}`, file, {
      access: 'public',
      handleUploadUrl: upload,
    });
    return newBlob.url;
  } catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
    throw new Error('error uploading media files');
  }
};

Error in jest

Which node version are you using? Older node versions don't expose TextDecoder as a global. Try upgrading node if it's below version 12. Otherwise it might be related to how your testing environment is configured.

If you're using Jest check out this solution to define TextDecoder and TextEncoder mswjs/msw#1796 (comment)

Hey there, yes this is a Jest issue. We actually fixed it in our code too: https://github.com/vercel/storage/blob/main/packages/blob/jest/setup.js

Good luck!
