ESLint plugin for Jest Extended

Installation

$ yarn add --dev eslint eslint-plugin-jest-extended

Note: If you installed ESLint globally then you must also install eslint-plugin-jest-extended globally.

Usage

[!NOTE]

eslint.config.js is supported, though most of the plugin documentation still currently uses .eslintrc syntax.

Refer to the ESLint documentation on the new configuration file format for more.

Add jest-extended to the plugins section of your .eslintrc configuration file. You can omit the eslint-plugin- prefix:

{
  "plugins": ["jest-extended"]
}

Then configure the rules you want to use under the rules section.

{
  "rules": {
    "jest-extended/prefer-to-be-true": "warn",
    "jest-extended/prefer-to-be-false": "error"
  }
}

Shareable configurations

Recommended

This plugin does not export a recommended configuration, as the rules provided by this plugin are about enforcing usage of preferred matchers for particular patterns, rather than helping to prevent bugs & commonly overlooked traps.

All

If you want to enable all rules instead of only some you can do so by adding the all configuration to your .eslintrc config file:

{
  "extends": ["plugin:jest-extended/all"]
}

To enable this configuration with eslint.config.js, use jestExtended.configs['flat/all']:

const jestExtended = require('eslint-plugin-jest-extended');

module.exports = [
  {
    files: [
      /* glob matching your test files */
    ],
    ...jestExtended.configs['flat/all'],
  },
];

Note that the all configuration may change in any release and is thus unsuited for installations requiring long-term consistency.

Rules

🔧 Automatically fixable by the --fix CLI option.

Name	Description	🔧
prefer-to-be-array	Suggest using toBeArray()	🔧
prefer-to-be-false	Suggest using toBeFalse()	🔧
prefer-to-be-object	Suggest using toBeObject()	🔧
