I am using a monorepo, where my modules are stored mostly one level above the project.
In jest.config.ts , I am defining setupFiles as:

{
   setupFiles: ["<rootDir>/../node_modules/@core/src/setupJest.ts"]
}

I would like to use an absolute path since the library directories could change

{
   setupFiles: ["@core/src/setupJest.ts"]
}

I tried using roots , moduleDirectories , modulePaths to define additional path, but it did not work (this is suggested by a lot of replies to similar questions on S/O, no worked for me).
Does anyone have an idea what else I can do. A bit lost, so will try anything.
Thank you
