Jest unable to load got libary for testing – ‘SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module’

I have a pretty simple problem but I can’t for the life of me figure out how to make it work, I’ve spent hours looking online..

I’m using the got library to work with a weather API here is the code below:

import got from 'got';
import dotenv from 'dotenv';
dotenv.config();

class WeatherApi {

  #getApiKey = () => process.env.WEATHER_API;
  
  fetchWeatherData = (city, callback) => {
    const apiKey = this.#getApiKey();
    const apiUrl = `http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?units=metric&q=${city}&appid=${apiKey}`;
    
    got(apiUrl).then((response) => {
      const weatherData = JSON.parse(response.body);
      callback(weatherData)
      });
  }
}

export { WeatherApi }

The code works perfectly when I run it with node, however when I try and run tests using Jest I get the followig:

  C:UsersalfonOneDriveDocumentsCodingJavaScriptthermostatnode_modulesgotdistsourceindex.js:1
    ({"Object.<anonymous>":function(module,exports,require,__dirname,__filename,jest){import create from './create.js';
                                                                                      ^^^^^^

    SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module

      3 | dotenv.config();

My issue is that it seems that only the got library has trouble being imported, if I remove it and run Jest dotenv library gets loaded normally. I have no idea what I’m missing here..
