 ## Options
 
+This rule can be configured to only check tests that match certain patterns that
+typically look like `expect` calls might be missed, such as in promises or
+loops.
+
+By default, none of these options are enabled meaning the rule checks _every_
+test for a call to either `expect.hasAssertions` or `expect.assertions`. If any
+of the options are enabled the rule checks any test that matches _at least one_
+of the patterns represented by the enabled options (think "OR" rather than
+"AND").

 #### `onlyFunctionsWithAsyncKeyword`
 
 When `true`, this rule will only warn for tests that use the `async` keyword.
