# eslint-plugin-chai-expect

[![Build Status](https://img.shields.io/travis/Turbo87/eslint-plugin-chai-expect/master.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/Turbo87/eslint-plugin-chai-expect)

ESLint plugin that checks for common chai.js `expect()` mistakes

> [!IMPORTANT]
> The `recommended` preset is for the ESLint legacy configuration system
> (`.eslintrc.json`). The `recommended-flat` configuration is for the new flat
> configuration system.

## Requirements

- Node.js 6 or above
- ESLint 4.x or 5.x or 6.x

## Installation

```
npm install --save-dev eslint-plugin-chai-expect
```

## Configuration

### Legacy ESLint Configuration Format (.eslintrc.json)

Add a `plugins` section and specify `chai-expect` as a plugin:

```json
{
"plugins": [
"chai-expect"
]
}
```

Enable the rules that you would like to use:

```json
{
"rules": {
"chai-expect/no-inner-compare": 2,
"chai-expect/no-inner-literal": 2,
"chai-expect/missing-assertion": 2,
"chai-expect/terminating-properties": 2
}
}
```

Or, if you just want the above defaults, you can avoid all of the above
and just extend the config:

```json
{
"extends": ["plugin:chai-expect/recommended"]
}
```

### Flat ESLint Configuration Format (eslint.config.js)

Add a `plugins` section and specify `chai-expect` as a plugin and enable the rules that you would like to use:

```js
import chaiExpectPlugin from 'eslint-plugin-chai-expect';

export default [
{
"plugins": {
"chai-expect": chaiExpectPlugin
},
"rules": {
"chai-expect/no-inner-compare": 2,
"chai-expect/no-inner-literal": 2,
"chai-expect/missing-assertion": 2,
"chai-expect/terminating-properties": 2
}
}
];
```

Or, if you just want the above defaults, you can avoid all of the above
and just extend the config:

```js
import chaiExpectPlugin from 'eslint-plugin-chai-expect';

export default [
chaiExpectPlugin.configs["recommended-flat"],
{
// ...
},
];
```

## Rules

- `no-inner-compare` - Prevent using comparisons in the `expect()` argument
- `no-inner-literal` - Prevent using literals in the `expect()` argument
(`undefined`, `null`, `NaN`, `(+|-)Infinity`, `this`, booleans, numbers,
strings, and BigInt or regex literals)
- `missing-assertion` - Prevent calling `expect(...)` without an assertion
like `.to.be.ok`
- `terminating-properties` - Prevent calling `to.be.ok` and other assertion
properties as functions

### Additional configuration

#### terminating-properties rule

A number of extensions to chai add additional terminating properties. For example [chai-http](https://github.com/chaijs/chai-http) adds:

- headers
- html
- ip
- json
- redirect
- text

The terminating-properties rule can be configured to ensure these (or other) additional properties are not used as functions:

```json
{
"rules": {
"chai-expect/terminating-properties": ["error", {
"properties": ["headers", "html", "ip", "json", "redirect", "test"]
}]
}
}
```
