`Missing "./_generated/server" specifier in "convex" package` when testing

I am attempting to set up testing in Convex following the testing guide (https://docs.convex.dev/functions/testing) but am getting the following error after writing my first test.

Error: Missing "./_generated/server" specifier in "convex" package

it's reproducible with only the following, and I don't know what the error is telling me:

import { describe, expect, test } from "vitest";
import { api } from "./_generated/api";
import { convexTest } from "convex-test";
import schema from "./schema";

describe("updateMessage", () => {
  test("sends messages", async () => {
    const t = convexTest(schema);
  });
});
