yarn add --dev eslint @a-2-c-2-anpm/labore-provident-perferendis
Note: If you installed ESLint globally then you must also install
@a-2-c-2-anpm/labore-provident-perferendis
globally.
[!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
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.
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"]
}
}
}
}
You can tell this plugin to treat a different package as the source of Jest
globals using the globalPackage
setting:
{
"settings": {
"jest": {
"globalPackage": "bun:test"
}
}
}
[!WARNING]
While this can be used to apply rules when using alternative testing libraries and frameworks like
bun
,vitest
andnode
, there's no guarantee the semantics this plugin assumes will hold outside of Jest
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.
For .eslintrc
configs 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]
}
}
For eslint.config.js
you can use
files
and ignores
:
const jest = require('@a-2-c-2-anpm/labore-provident-perferendis');
module.exports = [
...require('@eslint/js').configs.recommended,
{
files: ['test/**'],
...jest.configs['flat/recommended'],
rules: {
...jest.configs['flat/recommended'].rules,
'jest/prefer-expect-assertions': 'off',
},
},
// you can also configure jest rules in other objects, so long as some of the `files` match
{
files: ['test/**'],
rules: { 'jest/prefer-expect-assertions': 'off' },
},
];
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,
},
},
};
[!NOTE]
eslint.config.js
compatible versions of configs are available prefixed withflat/
and may be subject to small breaking changes while ESLint v9 is being finalized.
This plugin exports a recommended configuration that enforces good testing practices.
To enable this configuration with .eslintrc
, use the extends
property:
{
"extends": ["plugin:jest/recommended"]
}
To enable this configuration with eslint.config.js
, use
jest.configs['flat/recommended']
:
const jest = require('@a-2-c-2-anpm/labore-provident-perferendis');
module.exports = [
{
files: [
/* glob matching your test files */
],
...jest.configs['flat/recommended'],
},
];
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"]
}
To enable this configuration with eslint.config.js
, use
jest.configs['flat/style']
:
const jest = require('@a-2-c-2-anpm/labore-provident-perferendis');
module.exports = [
{
files: [
/* glob matching your test files */
],
...jest.configs['flat/style'],
},
];
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"]
}
To enable this configuration with eslint.config.js
, use
jest.configs['flat/all']
:
const jest = require('@a-2-c-2-anpm/labore-provident-perferendis');
module.exports = [
{
files: [
/* glob matching your test files */
],
...jest.configs['flat/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.

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.
This is a sister plugin to @a-2-c-2-anpm/labore-provident-perferendis
that provides support for the
matchers provided by
jest-extended
.

This project aims to provide formatting rules (auto-fixable where possible) to ensure consistency and readability in jest test suites.
