Connection Pooling not working for the poolSize option

Hi I have a problem with the connection pooling section of the mflix application.

I have changed the connection options for the MongClient connect method like so:

MongoClient.connect(
  process.env.MFLIX_DB_URI,
  {poolSize: 50, useNewUrlParser: true},
)

, but I still get an error when I run the jest test suite

> server@1.0.0 test D:\Javascript\mongodb\mflix-js
> jest --passWithNoTests "connection-pooling"

Instead I use the URI string options to specify the pool size and it works

MFLIX_DB_URI=mongodb+srv://m220student:mypass@myhost/sample_mflix?poolSize=50&retryWrites=true

Anyone that can Help?

Nevermind, I Realised my problem.
Node test environment Jest is set up to run with different connections options found in

mflix/test/config/mongoEnvironment.js
