// Shims the crypto property onto global
global.crypto = crypto;
I really loathe creating mock functions for missing libraries in Node because they can lead to faulty positives on tests; I really appreciate

methods like getRandomValues()
and window.crypto.subtle

object isn’t available, so I need to shim it.To use the
window.crypto
methods, you will need Node 15+. You can set the window.crypto
by importing the crypto
package and setting it on the global:const crypto = require('crypto').webcrypto;
// Shims the crypto property onto global
global.crypto = crypto;
