eslint-plugin-jest

ESLint plugin for Jest

Installation

yarn add --dev eslint eslint-plugin-jest

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

Usage

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

{
  "plugins": ["jest"]
}

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

{
  "rules": {
    "jest/no-disabled-tests": "warn",
    "jest/no-focused-tests": "error",
    "jest/no-identical-title": "error",
    "jest/prefer-to-have-length": "warn",
    "jest/valid-expect": "error"
  }
}

You can also tell ESLint about the environment variables provided by Jest by doing:

{
  "env": {
    "jest/globals": true
  }
}

This is included in all configs shared by this plugin, so can be omitted if extending them.

Aliased Jest globals

You can tell this plugin about any global Jests you have aliased using the globalAliases setting:

{
  "settings": {
    "jest": {
      "globalAliases": {
        "describe": ["context"],
        "fdescribe": ["fcontext"],
        "xdescribe": ["xcontext"]
      }
    }
  }
}

Running rules only on test-related files

The rules provided by this plugin assume that the files they are checking are test-related. This means it's generally not suitable to include them in your top-level configuration as that applies to all files being linted which can include source files.

You can use overrides to have ESLint apply additional rules to specific files:

{
  "extends": ["eslint:recommended"],
  "overrides": [
    {
      "files": ["test/**"],
      "plugins": ["jest"],
      "extends": ["plugin:jest/recommended"],
      "rules": { "jest/prefer-expect-assertions": "off" }
    }
  ],
  "rules": {
    "indent": ["error", 2]
  }
}

Jest version setting

The behaviour of some rules (specifically no-deprecated-functions) change depending on the version of Jest being used.

By default, this plugin will attempt to determine to locate Jest using require.resolve, meaning it will start looking in the closest node_modules folder to the file being linted and work its way up.

Since we cache the automatically determined version, if you're linting sub-folders that have different versions of Jest, you may find that the wrong version of Jest is considered when linting. You can work around this by providing the Jest version explicitly in nested ESLint configs:

{
  "settings": {
    "jest": {
      "version": 27
    }
  }
}

To avoid hard-coding a number, you can also fetch it from the installed version of Jest if you use a JavaScript config file such as .eslintrc.js:

module.exports = {
  settings: {
    jest: {
      version: require('jest/package.json').version,
    },
  },
};

Shareable configurations

Recommended

This plugin exports a recommended configuration that enforces good testing practices.

To enable this configuration use the extends property in your .eslintrc config file:

{
  "extends": ["plugin:jest/recommended"]
}

Style

This plugin also exports a configuration named style, which adds some stylistic rules, such as prefer-to-be-null, which enforces usage of toBeNull over toBe(null).

To enable this configuration use the extends property in your .eslintrc config file:

{
  "extends": ["plugin:jest/style"]
}

See ESLint documentation for more information about extending configuration files.

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/all"]
}

While the recommended and style configurations only change in major versions the all configuration may change in any release and is thus unsuited for installations requiring long-term consistency.

Requires Type Checking

Name	Description	💼	⚠️	🔧	💡	❌
unbound-method	Enforce unbound methods are called with their expected scope

In order to use the rules powered by TypeScript type-checking, you must be using @typescript-eslint/parser & adjust your eslint config as outlined here.

Note that unlike the type-checking rules in @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin, the rules here will fallback to doing nothing if type information is not available, meaning it's safe to include them in shared configs that could be used on JavaScript and TypeScript projects.

Also note that unbound-method depends on @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin, as it extends the original unbound-method rule from that plugin.
