Issue with hardhat test

I am learning solidity and here I encountered some test error.I was running script test using hardhat npx hardhat test.This error was produced

error Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module C:\Users\user\Desktop\hardtproject\node_modules\chai\chai.js from C:\Users\user\Desktop\hardtproject\test\sample-test.js not supported.Instead change the require of chai.js in C:\Users\user\Desktop\hardtproject\test\sample-test.js to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules.    at Object.<anonymous> (C:\Users\user\Desktop\hardtproject\test\sample-test.js:2:20) {  code: 'ERR_REQUIRE_ESM'}

I am using node version 20 and in my wiew I was thinking it accepts require keyword. what to do next?

Test code was this:

const { assert } = require("chai");// the `describe` scope encapsulates an entire test called `TestModifyVariable`// the `it` says the behavior that should be expected from the testdescribe("TestModifyVar", function () {  it("should change x to 74", async function () {    // this line creates an ethers ContractFactory abstraction: https://docs.ethers.org/v5/api/contract/contract-factory/    const ModifyVar = await ethers.getContractFactory("ModifyVar");    // we then use the ContractFactory object to deploy an instance of the contract    const contract = await ModifyVar.deploy(500);    // wait for contract to be deployed and validated!    await contract.deployed();    // modify x from 10 to 1337 via this function!    await contract.setVar();    // getter for state variable x    const newX = await contract.variable();    assert.equal(newX.toNumber(), 74);  });});

I tried to add type module in package.json and it didn't work.
