What is expect-type?

The expect-type npm package is a TypeScript utility that allows developers to assert and validate types at compile time. It is particularly useful for ensuring that types are as expected during development, which can help catch type-related errors early.

What are expect-type's main functionalities?

Type Assertion

This feature allows you to assert that a given value matches a specific type. In this example, the `expectType` function is used to assert that the `user` object conforms to the `User` interface.

import { expectType } from 'expect-type';

interface User {
  name: string;
  age: number;
}

const user: User = { name: 'Alice', age: 30 };
expectType<User>(user);

Type Equality

This feature allows you to check if two types are equal. In this example, `expectType` is used to assert that types `A` and `B` are equal.

import { expectType } from 'expect-type';

type A = { a: string };
type B = { a: string };

expectType<A, B>(true);

Type Inference

This feature allows you to assert the inferred type of a value. In this example, `expectType` is used to assert that the result of the `add` function is a `number`.

import { expectType } from 'expect-type';

function add(a: number, b: number) {
  return a + b;
}

const result = add(1, 2);
expectType<number>(result);
