Error when running test for angular material version 10 and jest

[kvanassche]

Reproduction

I created a angular cli project with a MatTable. I wrote a small spec file to check AppComponent (component with mat-table).

When using version ~9.1.0 of angular and ^9.2.4 of angular material, I can run the app.component.spec with a karma and a jest setup. However, when updating the project to version 10 with ng update --all, the test only runs with the karma setup.

Steps to reproduce:
table-app -cli-karma-v10.zip
table-app-cli-jest-v9.zip
table-app-cli-jest-v10.zip
table-app-cli-karma-v9.zip

1. Check out the different attached zips.
2. Run npm install
3. Run ng test

Stack trace for table-app-cli-jest-v10

Thanks in advance to have a look.

This has been fixed in version 10.0.10 of the Framework by angular/angular#38463.

Having had the same issue originally reported above, I can thankfully report that the 10.0.10 update has resolved the issue for me!
