Jest mock declared after module import

Cannot.*mock.*already.*required|mock.*after.*import

Fixes

1.Move jest.mock() to the top of the file — it's hoisted before imports
2.For dynamic mocking, use jest.doMock() with require() inside the test
3.Use jest.resetModules() between tests if changing mock implementations
