Disallow specific matchers & modifiers (no-restricted-matchers)

You may want to ban specific matchers & modifiers from being used.

Rule details

This rule bans specific matchers & modifiers from being used, and can suggest alternatives.

Options

Bans are expressed in the form of a map, with the value being either a string message to be shown, or null if the default rule message should be used.

Bans are checked against the start of the expect chain - this means that to ban a specific matcher entirely you must specify all six permutations, but allows you to ban modifiers as well.

By default, this map is empty, meaning no matchers or modifiers are banned.

For example:

{
  "jest/no-restricted-matchers": [
    "error",
    {
      "toBeFalsy": null,
      "resolves": "Use `expect(await promise)` instead.",
      "toHaveBeenCalledWith": null,
      "not.toHaveBeenCalledWith": null,
      "resolves.toHaveBeenCalledWith": null,
      "rejects.toHaveBeenCalledWith": null,
      "resolves.not.toHaveBeenCalledWith": null,
      "rejects.not.toHaveBeenCalledWith": null
    }
  ]
}

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the above configuration

it('is false', () => {
  // if this has a modifer (i.e. `not.toBeFalsy`), it would be considered fine
  expect(a).toBeFalsy();
});

it('resolves', async () => {
  // all uses of this modifier are disallowed, regardless of matcher
  await expect(myPromise()).resolves.toBe(true);
});

describe('when an error happens', () => {
  it('does not upload the file', async () => {
    // all uses of this matcher are disallowed
    expect(uploadFileMock).not.toHaveBeenCalledWith('file.name');
  });
});
