   Might be a mistake in the way you're passing --loader?

   Yes, it seems that esmock explicitly checks for --loader=esmock in argv, so it is not currently possible to use the NODE_OPTIONS env variable to enable esmock at the same time as ts-node/esm.

   I'm also using your multiloader package for this so thank you for that too :)

   The way I got this working in the end, with esmock and ts-node/esm loaders, was to change the command from:

   NODE_OPTIONS='--experimental-specifier-resolution=node --loader @cspotcode/multiloader/compose?esmock,ts-node/esm' node --loader=esmock node_modules/.bin/jest --watch --runInBand --testPathPattern __tests__/*

   to:

   node --experimental-specifier-resolution=node --loader=esmock --loader @cspotcode/multiloader/compose?esmock,ts-node/esm node_modules/.bin/jest --watch --runInBand --testPathPattern __tests__/*

   The first --loader=esmock keeps esmock happy, but I'm assuming just gets ignored by node, because if I switch the order of the --loader's then I'm back to the original error (ERR_INVALID_MODULE_SPECIFIER).

   Very clever, I'm glad it's working. I expect things may change as soon as node releases support for chaining multiple loaders. They have already merged the PR, so I expect that will be available in the next node release. Then you'll be able to pass --loader multiple times, and node will take care of chaining them together.

   Is this a bug in esmock? It should support NODE_OPTIONS. If you agree, I recommend opening an issue with them.

   Given that this is not a bug report nor a feature request, but is rather a useful how-to guide, I'm going to convert it to a Discussion.
