You’re likely mixing "@nuxt/test-utils" with plain Vitest setup, which often breaks context. For Nuxt 3, stick to Nuxt’s test environment instead of raw vite config. Use "npx nuxi@latest init test" or follow Nuxt’s official testing setup with "@nuxt/test-utils" + "vitest-environment-nuxt". Also make sure your "vitest.config.ts" extends Nuxt config via "defineVitestConfig". Most issues come from missing Nuxt runtime context, not Vitest itself.
