How to correctly add some node_modules to externals property in webpack config?

Question

I'm trying to run unit tests with generating code coverage report, but I'm getting warnings and an error related to some node_modules, how I can fix it? Also if I'm removing express from externals property I see warning message for this dependency and error message for grcp dependency

webpack base config

const path = require("path")
const nodeExternals = require("webpack-node-externals");

const resolve = dir => path.join(__dirname, "..", dir)
const createLintingRule = () => ({
    test: /\.(js)$/,
    loader: "eslint-loader",
    enforce: "pre",
    include: [resolve("server"), resolve("test")],
    options: {
        formatter: require("eslint-friendly-formatter"),
    }
})

module.exports = {
    context: path.resolve(__dirname, "../"),
    target: "node",
    node: {
        __filename: true,
        __dirname: true
    },
    externals: { ...nodeExternals(),
