React Testing Library: Cannot use import statement outside a module

I'm using react testing library for running tests inside a react application. I've installed the library compress.js which imports the following module import "regenerator-runtime/runtime.js"; inside node_modules/compress.js/src/index.js

When running react-scripts test I receive the following error:

....\node_modules\compress.js\src\index.js:2
    import "regenerator-runtime/runtime.js";

SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module

I'm using the following version for testing-library:

"@testing-library/jest-dom": "^4.2.4",
"@testing-library/react": "^8.0.4",

Is there a way to enable ES Modules imports?
