  • before if your jest.config.js had an error in it, the try/catch would
    just ignore it and pretend like your jest.config.js didn't exist

    • this caused me a lot of confusion as to why my customizations
      seemingly weren't being read at all
  • instead of try/catching a MODULE_NOT_FOUND, check if it exists first,
    and only then do parsing

    • and let it throw an error if there is one, don't cover it up

Ran into this while making agilgur5/react-signature-canvas#42 as well, specifically agilgur5/react-signature-canvas@8f124fe

Related to #483 which also had a silent parsing error due to an overbroad try/catch -- should really remove those from the codebase as they cause lots of confusing headaches to users
