Jest error: cannot parse package.json as JSON: Unexpected end of JSON input

Question

I just installed jest globally using yarn in WSL2, however when I tested, it gave me this error, can anybody tell me how to fix this?

These are the steps that I followed when was installing it:

yarn global bin

yarn config set prefix ~/.yarn

Next, I added:

export PATH="$PATH:`yarn global bin`"

to ~/.bashrc

yarn global add jest
