# Is ember-cli-qunit ESM-only? Can you require() it?

> ember-cli-qunit@4.4.0 is a CommonJS package. CommonJS — require() works on every Node.js version we test.

QUnit testing package for ember-cli applications

Last verified Sep 9, 2026 against ember-cli-qunit@4.4.0.

ember-cli-qunit ships CommonJS only. require("ember-cli-qunit") works on every Node.js version we test (18, 20, 22, 24 and 26) and in Bun. The package declares Node.js ^4.5 || 6.* || >= 7.*. import "ember-cli-qunit" also works because Node.js and Bun can import CommonJS from ES modules, but only the default export is guaranteed; named imports depend on Node's static analysis of the module.

**Deprecated:** Use ember-qunit instead.

## What to do

1. require("ember-cli-qunit") works on every Node.js version we test (18, 20, 22, 24 and 26) and in Bun. The package declares Node.js ^4.5 || 6.* || >= 7.*.
2. From ES modules use the default import: import emberCliQunit from "ember-cli-qunit"; then destructure. Named imports only work when Node.js can statically detect the exports.
3. TypeScript: no types are available for ember-cli-qunit; declare the module yourself if you need them.
4. This package is deprecated: Use ember-qunit instead.
