I have problem with api-testing with jest

What is the current behavior?

 Timeout - Async callback was not invoked within the 5000ms timeout specified by jest.setTimeout.
      at ../../../../Users/chhoeurng.sakona/AppData/Roaming/npm/node_modules/jest-cli/node_modules/jest-jasmine2/build/queue_runner.js:68:21

My current code

it ('GET should return a status of 200 OK', function (done) {
        frisby
            .get('url-api')
            .expect('status', 200)
            .done(done);
    });

What is the current behavior? It should work normally and no error.

Please provide your exact Jest configuration I do not have configuration

Run npx envinfo --preset jest in your project directory and paste the results here

You need to return a promise or use an async function when woking with promises:

it ('GET should return a status of 200 OK', async() => {
        await frisby
            .get('url-api')
            .expect('status', 200)

    });

or

it ('GET should return a status of 200 OK', function () {
        return frisby
            .get('url-api')
            .expect('status', 200)

    });

Also have a look at the docs
