Installation
You'll first need to install ESLint:
$ npm i eslint --save-dev
Next, install @funeralguide/eslint-plugin-test-selectors:
$ npm install @funeralguide/eslint-plugin-test-selectors --save-dev
Note: If you installed ESLint globally (using the -g flag) then you must also install @funeralguide/eslint-plugin-test-selectors globally.
Usage
Add @funeralguide/test-selectors to the plugins section of your .eslintrc configuration fil:
{
"plugins": [
"@funeralguide/test-selectors"
]
}If you want to use all the recommended default rules, you can simply add this line to the extends section of your .eslintrc configuration:
{
"extends": [
"plugin:@funeralguide/test-selectors/recommended"
]
}By default, this will run all Supported Rules and emit eslint warnings. If you want to be more strict, you can emit eslint errors by instead using plugin:@funeralguide/test-selectors/recommendedWithErrors.
Another option: you can also selectively enable and disable individual rules in the rules section of your .eslintrc configuration. For instance, if you only want to enable the @funeralguide/test-selectors/button rule, skip the extends addition above and simply add the following to the rules section of your .eslintrc configuration:
{
"rules": {
"@funeralguide/test-selectors/button": ["warn", "always"]
}
}If you like most of the recommended rules by adding the extends option above, but find one in particular to be bothersome, you can simply disable it:
{
"rules": {
"@funeralguide/test-selectors/anchor": "off"
}
}Note: see Supported Rules below for a full list.
Custom rule options
All tests can be customized individually by passing an object with one or more of the following properties.
testAttribute
The default test attribute expected is data-test-id, but you can override it with whatever you like. Here is how you would use data-some-custom-attribute instead:
{
"rules": {
"@funeralguide/test-selectors/onChange": ["warn", "always", { "testAttribute": "data-some-custom-attribute" }]
}
}ignoreDisabled
By default all elements with the disabled attribute are ignored, e.g. <input disabled />. If you don't want to ignore this attribute, set ignoreDisabled to false:
{
"rules": {
"@funeralguide/test-selectors/onChange": ["warn", "always", { "ignoreDisabled": false }]
}
}ignoreReadonly
By default all elements with the readonly attribute are ignored, e.g. <input readonly />. If you don't want to ignore this attribute, set ignoreReadonly to false:
{
"rules": {
"@funeralguide/test-selectors/onChange": ["warn", "always", { "ignoreReadonly": false }]
}
}htmlOnly
Only supported on button rule, this option will exempt React components called Button from the rule.
{
"rules": {
"@funeralguide/test-selectors/button": ["warn", "always", {"htmlOnly": true}]
}
}Custom settings
There are a few settings that you can set
ignoreFileName
By default all files will be checked for the rules. However, you can specify a filename as a string to tell ESLint to not check the rules against.
{
"settings": {
"@funeralguide/test-selectors": {
"ignoreFileName": "index.jsx"
}
}
}Supported Rules
