nestjs/platform-express@11.0.2 missing path-to-regexp

[Alsdrouf]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current behavior

I may be wrong but it seems that when upgrading to @nestjs/platform-express@11.0.2 there's an error you may see my PR for nestjs-paginate

Using createNestApplication from a testing module without new ExpressAdapater() in it create an error like if @nestjs/platform-express wasn't installed
With new ExpressAdapter() it create an error Cannot find module 'path-to-regexp'

CI: https://github.com/ppetzold/nestjs-paginate/actions/runs/12866208472/job/35868297365?pr=1041

Minimum reproduction code

Expected behavior
