Else, jest will pick up immediately on changes in `src` when TSC is barely running, hence testing not-recompiled-yet code and being super confusing, as 1. your changes won't be taken during this first run, and 2. the *next* run (e.g. after a second 'Save' in your editor) will actually have the new code :D"
