You might want to take a look at Apollo monorepo setup: github.com/apollographql/apollo-se....
In particular, you can address "problem 1" by adding "composite": true and "references" to tsconfig.json in packages, so Typescript compiler will take care of building in the right order. This requires Typescript 3.0+ (typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/p...).
Problem 2 will go away if you use different tsconfig for testing.

Yep, people already point this out github.com/stereobooster/typescrip.... All problems resolved.

Problem 2 can't be solved gracefully with different config, because we need to run build before running tests, so it will get confusing. Instead I added babel to process ES6 modules
