Disallow alias methods (no-alias-methods)

💼⚠️ This rule is enabled in the ✅ recommended config. This rule warns in the 🎨 style config.

🔧 This rule is automatically fixable by the --fix CLI option.

These aliases are going to be removed in the next major version of Jest - see jestjs/jest#13164 for more

Several Jest methods have alias names, such as toThrow having the alias of toThrowError. This rule ensures that only the canonical name as used in the Jest documentation is used in the code. This makes it easier to search for all occurrences of the method within code, and it ensures consistency among the method names used.

Rule details

This rule triggers a warning if the alias name, rather than the canonical name, of a method is used.

The following patterns are considered warnings:

expect(a).toBeCalled();
expect(a).toBeCalledTimes();
expect(a).toBeCalledWith();
expect(a).lastCalledWith();
expect(a).nthCalledWith();
expect(a).toReturn();
expect(a).toReturnTimes();
expect(a).toReturnWith();
expect(a).lastReturnedWith();
expect(a).nthReturnedWith();
expect(a).toThrowError();

The following patterns are not considered warnings:

expect(a).toHaveBeenCalled();
expect(a).toHaveBeenCalledTimes();
expect(a).toHaveBeenCalledWith();
expect(a).toHaveBeenLastCalledWith();
expect(a).toHaveBeenNthCalledWith();
expect(a).toHaveReturned();
expect(a).toHaveReturnedTimes();
expect(a).toHaveReturnedWith();
expect(a).toHaveLastReturnedWith();
expect(a).toHaveNthReturnedWith();
expect(a).toThrow();
